Going to subscription only shows what the developer thinks about their customers. Easy cash cows! Reason enough to look elsewhere.

ApolloOne is now subscription so I found another app to use ApolloOne was a little buggy and slow anyway so no big loss.

I'm dubious. I've been using Lyn for so long. Not having to bother with Photos or Preview, Lyn accesses all folders and all mounted volumes. The corrections are rudimentary, but useful. It's an app I gave my wife to use to organize and populate a folder for a 1 hour presentation. At $20, it's a bargain. Try it out. No connections to Lyn developer. Just a satisfied user.

Very convenient to see or work with many photos, with "Preview" default app is very cumbersome and the preview works (clicking on the space bar) is comfortable as long as you have to open a few photos. Just set the folders with the photos and... enough! Everything works with great speed! Congratulations to the developers!

I like this software a lot, until I was trying to manage photos on network volume. It can't delete selected images, because network volume "has no trashcan", and there isn't any option to enable direct deleting on network volume. That's the most absurd thing I've ever seen for an image managing software. Sent feedback to developer and no response. Just skip it if you need to access image files on network volume.

I have been alertered in the very last line of fine print that it offers in-app purchases. But it states very clearly that it's FREE. So what do it get with the FREE version?

How can these companies get away with saying FREE, when it's a lie? When free means demo, say DEMO!!

Version: 2.1.3

Beautiful interface and is very fast. Often crashes on me though when I try to rate or filter photos though. OS X 10.11.6. Might be a permissions issue for that folder. Still filtering on rating didn't work for me either even when I was able to rate on some folders. Frustrating. Turns out toolbar filtering doesn't work but menu filtering does work. Does not consistently read XMP style Bridge/FastRawViewer ratings. It doesn't seem ApolloOne writes ratings which other applications can view either. Lyn does read ApolloOne ratings but sadly DxO Photo Lab and FastRawViewer do not. You can move files just by drag and drop but they copy don't move.

Keep in mind the full app is $10 (fantastic deal if it would work for rating). In the meantime, though not as pretty, FastRawViewer is very reliable and stores rating data in XMP files which Adobe Bridge, Lightroom, DxO Photo Lab, Capture One and Iridient Developer all pick up. I'm DxO Photo Lab and Iridient Developer user myself.

Lots of potential here. I'd love to drop $10 on it right away if the filtering would work consistently and ratings and labels were kept in compatible XMP files which would work with Adobe Bridge compliant applications like DxO Photo Lab and FastRawViewer. ApolloOne is worth buying for its ability to show you where your focus point was when browsing through a shoot.

Focus point reveal worked for Canon 5DIII, 5DS R, Sony A6300 and Fujifilm X-H1. I.e. It's the most reliable feature in ApolloOne strangely.

I like ApolloOne a lot, and it’s my go-to image viewer. I particularly value the EXIF viewer with mapping to show image locations, and new features like the ability to customize the toolbar and to display the filename at the top of the window without the path are welcome additions. I only wish ApolloOne would remember when I've rotated an image, so I wrote to the dev who (as he always has) replied promptly and is now looking at adding this feature.
