Phiewer Select is a specialized tool for photographers and creatives to quickly review, rate, and select large volumes of images. This app is not a traditional image viewer and not a photo management solution. It focuses on one goal: selecting the best photos as fast as possible.
Built for the culling workflow. After a shoot, the goal is to reduce hundreds or thousands of images. Phiewer Select is designed specifically for that purpose:
+ Review images in fullscreen
+ Rate instantly with the keyboard (Keep / Reject / Skip / Favorite)
+ Stay in the flow without interruptions
No menus, no distractions, no waiting. Extremely fast - even with RAW files.
+ Instant image display
+ Background preloading of upcoming images
+ Optimized for large RAW image sets
+ Optionally treat RAW+JPG as a pair
Efficient keyboard workflow
+ Keep / Reject / Skip / Favorite with a single keystroke
+ Move to the next image instantly without confirmation
+ Undo at any time
+ Custom hotkey folder actions
Fast comparison
+ Compare multiple images with a single keystroke
+ Ideal for bursts and similar shots
Zoom & focus inspection

+ File and EXIF information view
Clear results without extra steps
+ Split selections into folders (Keep, Rejected, Skipped, Favorites)
+ Move or copy files
+ Optional macOS Tags support

No library, no database - you work directly with your files. Perfect in combination with Phiewer.
+ Preselection with Phiewer Select
