Features & Capabilities

Photowerks makes it easy to organizes and view your photos and videos via Smart Albums – create albums based on criteria you specify, such as: date, location, media type, camera type. New photos that meet an album's criteria are automatically added to the album.

From the magical milestones to the utterly mundane, you can now quickly find, organize and create albums using photo metadata attributes such as date, location (city, state, country), camera make and camera model, containing Apple Photos album, and matching keywords (for photos tagged with keywords.)

Photowerks seamlessly scans your existing camera roll and then groups and displays your photos by when or where you snapped them. No more scrolling or guessing to find that exact photo!

Use the photo detail viewer to see the exact location a photo was taken on a map, in addition to other details such as aperture, focal length and lens model, and containing Apple Photos album. You can also view the full, raw EXIF metadata for each photo.

Recent reviews

The app crashes and restarts about halfway through the photo parsing. When I reopen the app, it begins the parsing process all over and the same thing happens each time. iPhone 13 mini, iOS 16.6.1

I love this app. I almost forgot about it… after changing phones. Enough time went by so that to my good fortune, when I finally got it back they had made some great updates! Awesome way to be able to sort through endless photos! Good job guys!!
