RAW Power
What it is
RAW Power is a photo editor that gives users controls for Apple’s RAW decoder, with tools for adjusting RAW images, correcting lenses, and shaping color through split toning, HSL, curves, presets, and LUTs. It supports batch editing and adds support for compressed Fujifilm, GoPro, and newer Sony, Canon, and Nikon cameras. For organizing images, users can rate and flag photos, filter by rating or file type, and sync those ratings and flags through iCloud Photos. The app can browse files in Finder or work with a Photos library, and it includes an editing extension for Photos. A Mac trial has no time limit, but exports are size-limited and carry the RAW Power logo; custom watermarks are disabled. RAW Power is offered for macOS and iOS as separate purchases. The listed macOS plan is $49.99 a month, billed as a lifetime purchase; the iOS plan is $9.99 a month, also billed as a lifetime purchase. The trial requires macOS 10.14 or later, with newer system versions required for some RAW formats.
