BridgeLite vs BatchPixel

BridgeLite is a fast photo culling app built for photographers who shoot raw + jpg simultaneously. Designed for high-volume shooting — events, travel, sports, weddings — BridgeLite helps you quickly decide which shots to keep. After culling, hand off your picks to Lightroom or any other editing app in seconds. **Treat raw + jpg as one shot** Automatically pairs raw and jpg files from the same shot. Switch between them seamlessly with one tap to compare before rating. **Fast Thumbnail Browsing** Prioritizes embedded thumbnails for instant loading, even in folders with hundreds of shots. Scroll smoothly and filter on the fly. **Star Ratings & Color Labels** Rate shots 1–5 stars and apply color labels, written to XMP sidecar files. Fully compatible with Lightroom, Capture One, and other professional tools. **Powerful Filtering** Filter by aperture, shutter speed, focal length, rating, file type, or date — focus on exactly what you need, like showing only unrated shots to work through a backlog efficiently. --- Perfect for: • Photographers who shoot raw + jpg simultaneously • High-volume shooters: events, weddings, travel, sports • Anyone who finds Lightroom too heavy just for selecting photos --- **Requirements & Notes** To browse photos on an SD card, a Lightning or USB-C SD card reader adapter is required (sold separately). Files accessible through the standard Files app can also be browsed directly. Please note that reading from SD cards or low-speed connections such as USB 2.0 ports may result in reduced performance due to transfer speed limitations. For best performance, iPhone Pro models with USB 3.0 are recommended.

Turn a pile of photos into exactly the files you need — without a single byte leaving your phone. BatchPixel is a fast, no-nonsense bulk image converter that does everything on your device. Pick dozens of images, choose an output format, and convert them all at once. Compress to shrink file size, resize to fit, strip EXIF and location metadata, or combine everything into one PDF. There's no server, no sign-in, no ads, and no tracking — and it works fully offline. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Batch convert many images in one pass • Change format (HEIC, PNG, JPG, WebP and more) • Compress with a 0–100% quality slider to cut file size • Resize by longest edge or by percentage (never upscales) • Strip EXIF, location, and camera metadata automatically • Export to PDF — one PDF per image, or merge many images into a single multi-page PDF • Save to Photos, save to Files, or send through the share sheet PRIVACY BY DESIGN • 100% on-device — your image bytes never leave your phone • No uploads, no cloud, no server in the conversion path • No accounts, no sign-in, no ads, no trackers, no analytics on your images • Picking images needs no photo-library permission (uses the system picker) • Metadata is stripped on every conversion — location and camera data don't travel with your files • Works completely offline SUPPORTED FORMATS Output on iPhone & iPad: JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, HEIF, AVIF, TIFF, BMP, GIF, and PDF.
