Riffle For Mac

Despite the fact that nowadays all modern operating systems come with straight-out-of-the-box image viewers, other apps can prove to be better or faster alternatives.

Riffle is a stripped-down and straightforward image browser that makes it easy for you to effortlessly and quickly browse through large sets of pictures stored on your Mac’s hard-drive.

The fact that Riffle was built with speed and ease of access in mind becomes evident when you first start the app. You will be greeted by a simple window onto which you can load your images or folders of images using drag and drop.

Keeping in mind the fact that Riffle was build for SSD usage and this means that you will be able to observe how quick the app really is when compared with the default image viewer.

Browsing through pictures can be done by using the trackpad or the scroll wheel from your mouse, or by using the scroll bar that appears when hovering with the mouse pointer over the right side of the main window.

Another noteworthy feature is the fact that Riffle offers support for PDF catalogs creation. Thus, to generate catalogs, once the images are loaded into Riffle, click the Preferences button on the upper right corner of the window, select the Catalog tab, choose the number of photos displayed per page, and click the “Export Catalog” button in order to finish.

Riffle’s name is one that suits the application well because it manages to offer a very fast and accessible solution for viewing images on your Mac, without making you go through complicated and unnecessary actions in order to do so.
