31 manual controls

Brightness, contrast, saturation, exposure, highlights, shadows, temperature, tint, gamma, hue, vibrance, and more — every adjustment updates live as you drag with no render wait.

💾
Save custom presets

Create your signature look once, then apply your saved grades to any photo instantly — build a consistent style across your entire library.

🔄
Before & after comparison

Toggle between original and edited, or drag a reveal slider to see exactly what changed — includes a histogram overlay to read tones at a glance.

📦
Batch export entire folders

Apply your current look to an entire folder of photos at once, then export to JPEG, PNG, HEIF, or TIFF with adjustable quality and optional resizing.

✨
Auto Enhance & local only

One-tap Auto Enhance gives instant balanced corrections. Every edit runs on your Mac — no cloud uploads, no account, no tracking. Your photos stay private and on your computer.

How it works

  1. 01
    Open a photo

    Drag a photo onto the canvas or pick one from the file browser. If you have a whole folder to enhance, you can batch-process it in the export step.

  2. 02
    Choose a look or grade manually

    Tap any of the 27 presets, adjust intensity, or dive into manual controls — use Auto Enhance for a one-tap quick fix, or fine-tune with sliders for complete control.

  3. 03
    Compare and export

    Review your edit with before/after or histogram, save it to JPEG/PNG/HEIF/TIFF, copy to clipboard, share, or reveal in Finder. For folders, apply the same look to all photos and export them all at once.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a subscription?
No. Smart Photo Enhancer is a one-time purchase ($8.99). All features and updates are included with no recurring fees.
Does it use the cloud?
No. Smart Photo Enhancer is designed for on-device processing on your Mac — no cloud uploads, no accounts, and no data collection. Your photos never leave your computer.
What about crop and resize?
Included. Crop with free or fixed aspect-ratio presets, straighten and rotate freely, flip horizontally or vertically, and resize to exact dimensions with aspect-ratio lock — all non-destructive until you export.
Can I save my own presets?
Yes. Create any edit using the presets or manual controls, then save it as a custom preset. Next time, one tap applies your saved look to any new photo — build a consistent visual signature across your work.
Which export formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG, HEIF, and TIFF with adjustable quality, optional resizing, and optional batch processing for entire folders.

What's new · v2.2
Smart Photo Enhancer is now available on iPhone and iPad too, built on the same editing engine as your Mac app. This release also adds full support for all 8 portfolio languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Simplified Chinese). Otherwise, this is under-the-hood platform work — your batch workflow and presets on Mac are unchanged.
