## What is Loomey?

Loomey: Your Photos & Videos, Perfectly Preserved.

Stop relying on expensive cloud subscriptions. Loomey is a professional-grade solution for exporting your photos and videos in full, untouched quality. 
Whether it’s a NAS (SMB) or a USB drive, Loomey provides a true lossless export workflow with a single tap.

Universal App: Buy once, use everywhere. One purchase covers your iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Family Sharing included.

Why Choose Loomey?
Loomey is built for users who value accuracy, transparency, and absolute privacy. It’s not just a backup tool-it’s a dependable media archiver designed to give you peace of mind through local, offline storage.

The "iCloud Trap" Solution
Don't let "Optimized Storage" lock your photos away. Loomey intelligently downloads original files from iCloud only when needed, exports them in perfect quality, and helps you reclaim valuable space on your device.

Smart Matching: Filename-Independent
This is Loomey’s "Secret Sauce": Our engine identifies previously saved media purely by file size and extension.

Renamed files? No problem.
Moved folders? Loomey finds them.
Merging archives? Loomey handles it without creating duplicates. It’s the ultimate tool for merging messy backups or validating existing collections.

Professional Connectivity
Wireless SMB Support: Connect to any NAS, Windows, or macOS share. Fast, convenient, and fully cable-free.
Direct USB Backup: (iPhone 15 & newer) Plug in an SSD or USB stick and export directly. No cloud or desktop computer required.

Key Features for Power Users
- One-Tap Export: Configure once, back up forever. Simple, predictable, and risk-free.
- Advanced List Mode: Deep-dive into your library. Filter, inspect, and analyze your assets with real-time metrics.
- Complete History: Total transparency. Every export is logged with file counts, data volume, iCloud traffic, and timestamps. No more guessing.
- Media Validator: Every transfer is validated to ensure perfect data integrity.

Privacy First
No Deletions: Loomey never deletes your files. You stay in control.

Offline-Only: Only minimal metadata is stored locally. Your media never leaves your sight.

Format Support: Full support for JPG, PNG, HEIC, RAW, MOV, MP4, and more.

Built for Large Libraries. Designed for Clarity. Whether you have 1,000 or 100,000 photos, Loomey’s intelligent scanning and "Segment View" (organized by year/month) keep your archive clean and organized.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-08-21

This update focuses on making backup target setup smoother and more reliable — thanks to great feedback from our users!
• Adding a USB drive as backup target now works reliably: the folder picker opens correctly and the naming dialog appears as expected
• Adding a target now works regardless of which platform is currently selected in your settings
• Fixed the server search getting stuck on a spinner when returning from the folder selection
• The username field no longer auto-capitalizes the first letter (SMB logins are case-sensitive)
• Fixed a crash when deleting all log entries
