About
Your iPhone fired off 50 burst photos at the playground. Now they're sitting on your Mac, and you can't bring yourself to sort through them.
ViewOne fixes that. Drop a folder in — ViewOne instantly detects every burst group. Compare side by side, pick your favorites with a tap, and send the rest to the Trash in one click.
Can't decide? Let AI pick — it analyzes sharpness, exposure, composition, and expressions to find the keeper.
WHAT MAKES VIEWONE DIFFERENT
- AUTOMATIC BURST DETECTION
Drop any folder. ViewOne groups burst sequences automatically — no manual tagging, no "sort by EXIF and squint at timestamps." Works on iPhone bursts, DSLR continuous shooting, screen-capture sequences.
- SIDE-BY-SIDE COMPARE
Review workbench shows the burst group inline. Press V for split-screen pixel-level compare. Press P to pick, X to reject. Keyboard-first by design — clear 200 photos in 15 minutes.
- AI BEST PICK (Pro)
AI analyzes sharpness, exposure, composition, and expressions across the burst and recommends the keeper. Faces open-eyed and smiling, no motion blur, best framing. You can always override.
- EXIF PANEL
Full EXIF for every photo — aperture, shutter, ISO, lens, GPS, camera body. Edit fields when you need to (corrected dates after a wrong-timezone shoot, for example).
- ONE-CLICK CLEANUP
Move rejects to Trash. Batch-export picks. The photos you keep stay; the duplicates you don't need stop eating your SSD.
- LOCAL-FIRST
Everything runs on your Mac. No upload, no cloud account, no AI server. Vision framework does the analysis locally.
WHO IS VIEWONE FOR?
- Parents whose camera roll is 70% burst-mode kid photos
- Photographers reviewing continuous-shooting takes from a wedding or sports shoot
- Anyone who has tried Gemini Photos and felt it auto-selects too aggressively, or PhotoSweeper and got lost in its settings panel
- People with a Photos library at 200+ GB wondering where it all went
- iPhone users who shoot Live Photos and want to keep one frame per moment
