## What is Latent Frames?

Latent Frames is an all-in-one photo viewer and organizer for photos that live in folders: on your iPhone or iPad, a USB drive or SD card, a Mac, Windows PC or NAS on your home network, and cloud storage like Dropbox and OneDrive. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is moved into a library. Your folders stay exactly as they are.

Keep your photos in Apple Photos? Get our sister app, Latent Photos.

ONE APP FOR EVERY PLACE YOUR PHOTOS LIVE
• Files on your iPhone or iPad, USB drives, SD cards and iCloud Drive
• Shared folders on a Windows PC, Mac or NAS (SMB)
• Synology NAS, signed in to DSM for the fastest first index
• QNAP, TrueNAS, Unraid, Nextcloud and other WebDAV servers
• Storage buckets: Amazon S3, Backblaze B2, Cloudflare R2 and Wasabi
• Dropbox and OneDrive

BUILT FOR BIG LIBRARIES
Browse folders as they are, with quick thumbnails and a full-screen viewer that stays smooth on libraries of 150,000 photos. Sort by capture date, filter, and jump between folders from the title. Mark photos as reviewed and pick up where you left off.

FIND SIMILAR PHOTOS
Latent Frames compares your photos on your device and shows near-duplicates side by side. Drag the line to compare two shots, keep the best one and send the rest to the trash, with undo.

TAGS THAT STAY WITH YOUR PHOTOS
Tags are saved inside each photo as standard XMP, so digiKam, Immich and Lightroom can read them too. A photo that can't hold them gets an XMP file beside it. Move photos into folders with one tap.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No servers of ours. No analytics. Photos are processed on your device, and the app only talks to the places you add and to your own iCloud.

PRICING
Every feature is free for your first 30 days. After that, browsing and viewing stay free forever, and a one-time purchase unlocks Similar, Compare, tags and moving photos for good. No subscription.

LATENT FRAMES OR LATENT PHOTOS?
Both find similar shots, compare them side by side and help you tag them. Latent Frames works with photos in folders, on drives, computers, NAS and cloud storage, and saves tags inside the files. Latent Photos works with your Apple Photos library and turns tags into albums there. Pick the one that matches where your photos live, or use both.
