CLUSTER PHOTOS-IMPORTS-MACOS · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-26
Mac photo import and organization apps
This cluster consists of macOS apps that import photos and videos from cameras, SD cards, or iPhones, and organize them into folders by date or event, with some offering rating, renaming, and filtering. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from—only two dated entries exist before the index start, and many members are undated. Among tracked products, Photo-Insight leads on traction with 101 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 10 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
