- Open your imported RAW files with your favorite RAW-Converter and replace it with your edited version.

- Edited Photos will sync across all your devices.
Usage:
- To use the extension find a picture in Photos and double-click
- Click the Edit button in the upper right window corner

Ratings and Reviews
Great! Makes Photos powerful and saved me money.
I wanted a quick way to change perspective in photos app on Mac and was about to spend nearly a lot more in App Store when I spotted this App. This not only allows me to use the exccellent DxO app tO already have installed to do this but also lets me drop into Adobe PS CC and use all the power of this if needed. As others have said it would be great if I could use Lightroom as well, or at least the editing part of Lightroom. Still very impressed in the way it found all of the other programs.
What I’ve been waiting for...
As mentioned by other reviewers, this is a feature available in iPhoto that should have been in Photos from day one. It installed without any problems and does exactly was it says. I can choose from a list of any photo editors I have loaded on my Mac, or I can add select a favourite that will load everytime.
A brilliant little program and well worth the 0.99p!
So Simple, So Great, So Thanks!
Something that should have been implemented by Apple. Great credit to the developer for spotting the need. It works perfectly for me - able to open GIMP for those images which need a little more editing. Save the file and it overwrites the file in Apple’s photo library - perfect! No opening GIMP, exporting and then importing again. Hours saved. For .75p. Can’t I pay more??
