Nitpic is the exciting new tool for pro-photographers and hobbyists alike. DSLR owners know the frustration of sorting through thousands of images after a photoshoot. It's boring. It's tedious. It's slow. But Nitpic takes advantage of your device's intuitive interface to do what other professional apps have failed to do so far: make it quick, streamlined, and intuitive. With Nitpic, sorting photos has never been easier! Nitpic links up with the Nitpic Desk companion app over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth (now available, free on the Mac App Store). Then it loads all of your images into a simple and intuitive interface. Sort and cull your photos by swiping. Zoom in and check tiny details by pinching. Nitpic offers two sort modes: Rating mode (for photographers who like to use the 5 Star rating system): • Tap, hold, and slide right or left to assign a rating between 1 and 5 stars • Tap and slide left from the right side of the screen to undo the previous rating • Pinch to zoom in and out​ Swipe mode (for photographers who like to sort their photos into keeper and reject piles): • Swipe right to sort into Keeper folder • Swipe left to sort into Reject folder • Tap and slide left from the right side of the screen to undo the previous rating • Pinch to zoom in and out All sorting is NON-DESTRUCTIVE. No photos are altered or deleted in the sort process. Once you’re done, you can move your photos into your photo library of choice in a quick and orderly fashion and apply your ratings accordingly. Nitpic is currently compatible with RAW (CR2, NEF, etc) TIFF, JPG, PNG, PSD, and others!

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Pic at 4.7 against Nitpic's 3.3. Pic also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 48 months) and ratings volume (1.7K vs 3). Nitpic's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 31%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Pic holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pic has 1.7K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Nitpic's written reviews are positive against 31% of Pic's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Nitpic ships an update every 48 months, Pic every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on June 5, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
