A little deeper. Just a click.
Expand folders in the sidebar and explore their subfolders. Nested media comes along, too.
One view. More possibilities.
With two or more saved folders, All brings their available photos and videos together.
02 See the whole picture
Every detail.
Every moment.
From a favorite photograph to a just-one-more-time video.
Open it. Enjoy it. Stay in the moment.

Just right.
A few thoughtful tools for the everyday. Make your adjustments, then save a copy or choose to replace the original when supported.

Keep the part
you love.
Trim with Start and End handles and preview your selection. Choose an available output format, resolution, and frame rate.
Available export choices depend on the source and macOS codec support.
Your save. Your choice. Save a Copy keeps the original. Replace Original changes it after output validation, when the format and source allow it.
04 Yours, by design
Your files.
Your space.
PhotoPebble works locally with the folders you choose. No cloud library to set up. No account to create.
- Photos and videos are processed on your Mac.
- No media uploads, telemetry, or tracking in the app.
- Browsing leaves your original files in place.
Removing a folder from the library only forgets its saved access. It doesn’t delete your media.
A few good questions
Good to know.
Which Macs can run PhotoPebble?
PhotoPebble is a native Mac app. Confirmed macOS and hardware requirements will be available with the Mac App Store listing.
Do I need to import my photos?
No. Add a folder and browse its existing photos, videos, and ordinary subfolders. Files stay where they are; PhotoPebble doesn’t import originals into a separate library. Hidden folders, packages, and symbolic links are excluded.
Which photos and videos can I open?
Photos: JPEG, PNG, HEIC/HEIF, TIFF, GIF (still frame), BMP, and WebP. Videos: MOV, MP4, and M4V, with playback depending on the codecs supported by macOS. RAW and animated-photo playback aren’t supported. Editing has additional format and image-content limits.
What happens to my originals when I edit?
Choose Save a Copy to keep the original. Replace Original changes the source file after the edited output has been staged and validated, and is available only for supported matching formats and unchanged sources. Replacement has no undo after saving. Photo exports may be re-encoded and may not retain every metadata field.
How will I get PhotoPebble?
PhotoPebble will initially be available exclusively through the Mac App Store. It isn’t listed yet. Once it is, this page will take you to the official listing.
A little pebble. A lot to explore.
Meet your media.
All over again.
A simpler way to browse, view, play, and edit on your Mac.
