SpectraSort - AI Photo Picker

About this app

Every camera roll hides the photos you actually want — your best shots, a favorite subject, the ones only you would pick. SpectraSort surfaces them for you and learns your eye as it goes. Three ways in — one-tap tools, a browsable library, a studio of controls — one fast engine underneath, running entirely on your iPhone. Nothing is ever uploaded. TOOLBOX Six one-tap tools, each pointed at a different photo you're looking for: • Your Taste — a profile built from the photos you keep and the ones you let go • Best Shots — your sharpest, best-exposed, best-composed photos first • Find a Subject — search anything you can put into words, from "dogs at the beach" to "golden hour" to just "cozy" • Like This Photo — point at one photo, get everything like it • Photos of a location — pin a place, see everything shot there • Dedupe — duplicates, shots in a series, and look-alikes, gathered into stacks to clear DISCOVER Face a big library one piece at a time. Scenes gather your trips, themes, and series on their own; a Timeline takes you year to month to day. Sort any slice with a tap. REVIEW The best rise to the top — "best" meaning whatever you asked the tool for — with look-alikes stacked. Swipe through the result the way you'd expect: right to pick the winners, down to keep, left to let go. Or let Autopick sort them and just skim. Nothing is applied until you tap an action. WHEN YOU'RE DONE Batch Process finishes the job: send your picks to an album or the share sheet, delete the rest. Kept photos stay in your library, untouched. PRIVATE Everything runs on your iPhone — the scoring, the search, the taste profile, all of it on-device processing. No account, no internet, nothing collected from your photos. They never leave your phone. FAST The first sort does the heavy lifting: your photos are indexed on Apple's Neural Engine — up to 100 a second — one time. Every sort after runs on that index and lands nearly instantly. STUDIO — PREMIUM For when you want the controls: seven quality sliders (sharpness, exposure, composition and more), a weight wheel that splits subject against quality, and up to three subjects at once — even a photo as a subject. Save your settings as a profile, switch between them, bookmark the ones you reach for. PRICING Five free sorts a week. Premium removes the weekly limit and opens Studio — custom sorts, the full quality controls, saved profiles. $19.99 once, for good. No subscription, no renewals. Built by an indie developer who uses it every day.

Fewer interruptions. The in-app tips no longer appear on their own. Every screen that had a walkthrough keeps a "?" button, so the guidance is there when you want it and out of the way when you don't. The one that still appears on its own is the note telling you your Taste profile is ready. The Review grid now opens flat. Only true duplicates stack on arrival — Sequence and Similar start off, so no photo is hidden behind a cover before you've asked for grouping. Whatever you change is remembered next time. Discover → Timeline opens on your three most recent months instead of every month collapsed. Older months stay folded. Fixed a tip on the Home screen that named controls the app no longer has. The rate-this-app prompt now appears after you finish a review session, rather than only after a bulk action.

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
