ApolloOne is a photo and video viewer for Mac that lets users view and cull images without importing camera RAW files into a proprietary database. Its EXIF tools manage keywords and metadata, which can also be used to search files, optionally with regular expressions. Camera autofocus points can be overlaid on photos for inspection at 100% magnification. Interactive Apple and Google Maps support GPS editing by dragging and dropping a location. Slideshows can use music from iTunes playlists, and the app can work with an external image editor of the user’s choice. Pro Edition adds batch resizing and format conversion, batch export including RAW-to-JPEG conversion, and memory-card import with Auto Resume. ApolloOne is available only for Mac and requires macOS 12.0 or later. The free version is available indefinitely, with a purchase reminder after 14 days. Paid options include annual subscriptions and perpetual licenses, from 14.99 USD per year for a Standard subscription to 59.99 USD per once for the Pro perpetual license.
