About

Clean up an SD card full of photos, quick! I built SDCull because I wanted to take advantage of the amazing displays on my iPad and iPhone when culling on the go, but I prefer to do my editing at home on a desktop. SDCull lets photographers sort a shoot right off the card — flag the rejects, pick out the keepers, and send each set exactly where you want it, all without importing a thing. Two workflows, one pass through your shoot: - Cull: Flag the "rejects" and move them to a _Culls folder — a safety net you can review one last time, then delete to reclaim space. - Select: Flag your keepers and move them straight to a destination of your choice — a subfolder on the card, or another drive or folder on your device. Selects are never deleted; they're the shots you're keeping. Designed with efficiency in mind: 1. Connect: Plug in your SD card reader, or open any folder on your device. 2. Review & Flag: Swipe through one photo at a time, or tap Select to flag in bulk. A Cull / Select switch lets you choose what each tap does. 3. Move & Clear: Move all flagged photos to their destination in one tap. Review your culls one last time, then delete to reclaim storage immediately. Key Features: - Two workflows: Cull the rejects and gather the keepers in the same pass. - Flexible select destinations: Send keepers to a subfolder on the card, or out to another drive or folder on your device. - Direct SD Card Access: Works directly with SD cards and external drives through the Files app. No import required. - RAW Support: Native support for ARW, CR2, NEF, DNG, RAF, and more, alongside standard JPG/HEIC. - Safe by design: Files are copied and verified at the destination before the original is removed, so a photo is never lost mid-move. Culls wait in a _Culls folder before anything is deleted, and moves preserve your subfolder structure so same-named files never collide. - Undo and session memory: Step back through flag changes with undo (Cmd+Z on a keyboard), and pick up right where you left off — flags survive closing the app. - Built for judging photos: Zoom in for a sharpness check with extra detail loaded on demand, and flip open the info overlay for capture time, camera, lens and exposure settings. - Sort and filter your way: Order by filename or date (EXIF capture time or last-modified — your choice), filter by file type, or focus the grid on just your culls, selects, or unflagged shots. I use this after every one of my shoots, and I hope you will too!

What's New in SDCull

1.6

July 11, 2026

New in this version: • Undo — revert any flag with the new undo button (or Cmd+Z on a keyboard), step by step, all the way back. • Your session survives — cull and select flags are now remembered if you close the app mid-cull and restored when the folder reopens. • Sort your shoot — order by filename or date, ascending or descending, with natural numeric ordering (DSC_2 before DSC_10). Choose in Settings whether dates use EXIF capture time or the file's last-modified time. • Flag filter — tap the new Culls / Selects / Unflagged counters above the grid to review exactly that set before you move anything. • Photo info — one tap in the viewer shows capture time, camera, lens, shutter, aperture, ISO, focal length and file size. • Sharper zoom — zooming in loads extra detail for critical focus checks, and you can now pan with one finger while zoomed. • Safer moves — photos with the same name in different folders can no longer collide: moves preserve your subfolder structure in _Culls and your selects destination, and RAW+JPEG pairing is now per-folder. • Polish everywhere — position counter and end-of-folder summary in the viewer, haptic feedback when flagging, the grid follows you back from the viewer, better VoiceOver support, and many performance and stability fixes.
