App Initio Limited creates innovative, useful apps for iPhone, iPad and Mac.
Photos Takeout – For macOS
A must-have app for Apple Photos and iCloud users. The Photos app and iCloud have no backup tool, and their export options are too basic. With Photos Takeout, you can export photos into folders organized by album, year, month or date, preserving resolution, metadata, and image formats. If you use 'Optimize Storage' setting, Photos Takeout fetches originals from iCloud, bypassing iCloud's 1,000-item limit. Its Incremental Export feature updates your backups quickly without re-exporting from scratch.

PhotoSort – For macOS
This useful app provides important functionality that Apple's Photos app lacks: It lets you sort your Mac and iCloud Photos library by file size and aesthetic quality. So if your Mac or iCloud storage are full, you can easily identify the photos and videos taking up all the space. It also finds your best shots - and the ones that can be improved with edited or which you might consider discarding.

Pic Scanner – For iOS
We invented multi-scanning for mobile. Launched in 2013, Pic Scanner was world’s first app for scanning and cropping multiple photos. It also lets you edit, add captions, create albums and share photos. In 2016 we launched its advanced version, Pic Scanner Gold - so Pic Scanner is now our lite app. Get Pic Scanner if you have an old model of iPhone or iPad. And you'll get essential functionality and unlimited scans at a low price.

SnipTag – For Mac
Scanning hundreds of photos? Don't start doing it without SnipTag. It's two great apps in one: Snip (for batch-cropping scans) and Tag (for adding captions and metadata). Scan multiple photos at a time with any scanner, digital camera or phone. Batch-import all the scans into SnipTag for instant cropping. Edit file names, date, place, descriptions, keywords and other IPTC metadata fields. Do this for multiple photos at a time - by typing or voice dictation.
