tl;dr - It reads the .tif files I tried. Great for a "quick-view" if you're trying to identify a particular tif which has had some human-unfriendly, 8-bit naming convention assigned. Don't expect anything more and you won't be disappointed. Rated "just okay" For serious viewing with editing/conversion capabilities, I'd recommend looking for a better browser-based editor or, in the case of ChromeOS, flick over to Linux and install GIMP via Flatpack, if available. --- Unlike Leo discovered in his less-than-detailed review, this does open .tif files but to qualify this, it was using a current Chromebook. While there's a confusing disclaimer that it won't open from "you Google drive" even though there's an option to do so, I instead used the "From you Pc" selection which opens the ChromeOS File explorer and opened a tif I had stored one my Google drive that way. So it opens the tif, in this case, a scan of railway locomotive drawing from the 1950's, but as mentioned in nl hn's review, there isn't the ability to fully utilise whatever degree of zoom that's possible with a hi-res scan, being limited to the zoom offered by the browser itself. ---
