Why a Browser Photo Editor Fits a Mac
Apple silicon ready
Safari and Chrome already run natively on Apple silicon, so there is no separate app build or Rosetta layer.
Private local processing
Photos are decoded and adjusted in the browser instead of being uploaded to a remote editing server.

Photo Formats Supported on Mac
Open common web and camera-export formats directly. GIF files use a static frame, while layered PSD documents expose their available layer structure.

Mac Photo Editor FAQ
Does this free photo editor work in Safari?
+
Use an up-to-date Safari or Chrome on macOS. The editor relies on browser canvas and local file APIs. Desktop Chromium has been checked, but full Safari compatibility has not yet been verified. If a file fails to open or export, keep the original and try a current desktop Chrome release. Large PSDs may need more memory.
Does it run natively on Apple silicon?
+
The editor runs inside your browser, which already runs natively on Apple silicon. There is no separate Intel app and no Rosetta requirement.
Can I edit a PSD on a Mac without Photoshop?
+
Yes. Open a PSD in the homepage editor, edit supported text and image layers, and adjust their position, scale, rotation or image-layer brightness. Export PNG, JPG or WebP, or download a PSD to continue editing. Complex layer styles may differ from the original.
Do my Mac photos leave the computer?
+
No. Image decoding and editing happen locally in the browser. Your files are not uploaded to our server.
