Photo Plus For Mac

Photo Plus is designed from the ground up to be the only tool you require to adjust, resize and convert your photos, as well as add effects and overlays to bring out the best in your pictures.

The Photo Plus app provides you with a classic image editor interface, with a central viewport containing the photo, and a left side panel with a top drop-down menu to quickly switch between the app's tool sets.

With the help of the Adjust tab, you can effortlessly change the loaded image's brightness, exposure, contrast, saturation, gamma, and hue properties using slider controls. This tab also contains a simple to use color channel adjustment tool at the bottom.

Effects, the second tab, as it name suggests, helps you quickly add one of the following image effects: color, sepia, oil painting, sketch, vignette and focus blur. Each of them also comes with controls which make it easy to adjust them to suit your image better.

Photo Plus also comes with a built-in bundle of over 80 overlays which make it quite easy to add bokeh, sunlight, glitter, dust, petals, and bubble effects to your photo, with customizable offset, opacity, and scale.

The large assortment of bundled overlays also explains the fact that Photo Plus takes up 1.13 GB of disk space, with 1.12 GB being the size of the overlay collection.

Once you are done adjusting and adding effects to your picture, you can also add a custom border, resize it using percentages or a custom size in pixels, and convert it to JPG, PNG, TIFF, GIF, or BMP, according to your needs.

As a bonus, Photo Plus makes it possible to save your current settings as a profile to use them for large sets of images, if you need them to have the same look and style.

Regarding its downsides, we have not found any during the testing period, but we do have a short list of wishes: a way of moving the overlays using the mouse, and a rotate and crop feature to make it easier to edit your photos without using an extra app.

To conclude, the Photo Plus delivers on its promise to equip your Mac with most of the tools you would want to enhance your photos. You can also use Photo Plus when you have to resize and convert your pictures to multiple image formats.
