Photo Browser: External Disk opens the photos and videos on your USB drive, SSD, SD card, NAS or cloud storage right where they are. Nothing is imported first, and there is no account to create. Your photos are never uploaded to us. The app only opens the drives, folders and services you choose. Passwords and keys, if you use any, stay in your device's Keychain. Built for big libraries. Folders with thousands of photos, or many more, open in moments and scroll smoothly, whether they're on a drive plugged into your iPhone or on a NAS across the house. Everything stays in one flow: browse a dense grid, act on many photos at once and check RAW details, with nothing imported. Every place you keep photos - USB drives, SSDs, hard drives and camera cards (SD, CFexpress) - NAS and shared computers (SMB and WebDAV) - OneDrive - Storage buckets: Amazon S3, S3-compatible services, Azure Blob Storage and Google Cloud Storage - Drives you've used before open again with one tap Browse and check - Photos, videos, RAW files and Live Photos - Camera, lens, exposure and a map of where each photo was taken - Sort by date taken, camera, size or name - Move, rename and delete on the drive, or save your picks to Photos - Copy a camera card to another drive, NAS or cloud location, with every copy compared with its original Pick the best photos - Similar shots in a folder are grouped, the best of each group is marked, and blurred shots and closed eyes are flagged - Choose how many to keep, then save the keepers to Photos, or move or delete the rest - Photos are analyzed on your device Video transcripts - Turn what is said in a video into text, on your device (iOS 26 or later) - Tap a line to play from there, or search everything said in a folder Remove private info before you share - Strip GPS location, capture time and camera serial numbers from photos and videos - Save a cleaned copy or overwrite the original. Quality doesn't change Back up your iPhone or iPad - Copy your photo library to your own drive, NAS or cloud location - Only new photos are copied, and originals, Live Photos and RAW files are kept - Free up space: remove photos from your device once their copies are confirmed to be there Also included: Light and Dark appearance, iPad and landscape layouts, and a speed test for your drive.
