Reminder of minimum system requirements

Mylio strives to balance security, performance, and stability when setting our minimum operating system requirements. Due to recent updates from OS manufacturers, we have increased these requirements. These new requirements were announced at the end of 2023, and are now being enforced with this release.

  • Windows Computers and Tablets: Windows 10 version 21H2 (64-bit) or later; Windows 11

  • Windows ARM – Surface X Pro: Windows 10 version 21H2 (64-bit) or later; Windows 11

  • Android Phones and Tablets: Android 11 or later

  • Macintosh Computers: macOS 11 or later

  • iPhone and iPad Devices: iOS 16 or later

While older devices can still run previous versions of Mylio Photos, this will change in upcoming updates. Our next major update, expected this winter, will require a database upgrade, which older devices will not support.

Please ensure your device is upgraded to a supported OS to avoid disruption. If your device can’t be updated due to manufacturer limitations, consider replacing it with a newer or refurbished model that meets the minimum requirements.


Mylio Photos v. 24.4 - 7777

Android Build: 24.7777

    • Filter your results using the QuickFilter tree; the "By Keyword" group now shows existing keywords alphabetically.

    • Apply multiple Keywords as “OR” filters

    • Improved results in Dynamic Search

  • Mylio Drive Setup Improvements - there is now a dedicated button at the top of the Devices tab in the Dashboard view for quick setup.

  • Mylio Drive+ and SecureCloud: Enhanced Storage Options - an optional new service offering cloud storage and the ability to turn your Mylio Drive into Mylio Drive+ with the ability to store originals and be designated as a Vault.

    • SecureCloud is an optional cloud service that can be added to your Mylio Photos+ subscription to include cloud based storage options

    • SecureCloud can turn your Mylio Drive device (part of all Mylio Photos+ accounts) into Mylio Drive+ with added benefits including:

      • Broad File Support: While the standard Mylio Drive only supports optimized photos, Mylio Drive+ allows you to store all types of Mylio-supported files—photos, videos, and documents.

      • Powered by Backblaze: Mylio Drive+ is powered by Backblaze, one of the most reliable and secure hosting networks available.

      • Encryption and Security: All files synced with Mylio Drive+ are encrypted, ensuring that only devices signed into your account can access them. This means your data remains private and secure, protected from unauthorized access.

      • Precision Syncing: Mylio Drive+ offers advanced syncing options, allowing you to choose which files to store in the Cloud based on criteria like ratings, labels, stars, folders, dates, file types, sizes, or categories. This ensures that you have complete control over what is stored.

      • File Integrity: Every file written to Mylio Drive+ is verified to ensure an accurate copy is made. Only devices authorized by you can access SecureCloud storage, keeping your files safe from unauthorized access.

  • QuickFilter Panel Improvements - easier navigation with Solo Mode, keyboard controls, and other enhancements.

    • When Solo Mode is enabled, only one parent group can be open at a time, which can greatly reduce scrolling. Solo Mode is on by default but can be managed from the gear icon at the top of the QuickFilters panel.

    • Quickly close all open groups in the QuickFilter tree by pressing the \ key.

    • You can now navigate the QuickFilter panel using your keyboard. Use the arrow keys to move through groups and items and the Return key to select them.

    • The By Filetype QuickFilters now use OR logic, allowing you to combine filters. For example, you can view both Photos and Documents by stacking these QuickFilters.

  • Dynamic Search Improvements - several enhancements make finding your photos even easier.

    • Recent Searches: Quickly access your recent search history. Up to 20 of your latest searches will appear when you click in the search field.

    • Autocomplete Suggestions: As you type, suggested keywords and other options will appear, helping you find what you're looking for faster.

    • SmartTag Control: If you prefer not to include SmartTags in your search results, you can now disable them. Simply click the More menu in the Dynamic Search view to toggle SmartTags on or off.

    • Storage Panel: The Storage panel is now available in the search results view when you select a single image.

    • Keyboard Navigation: You can also use keyboard navigation to move through recent searches and autocomplete suggestions. Use the arrow keys to navigate and the Return key to select items.

  • Find in Page Improvements - interface enhancements.

    • Persistent window across all views - close it on one view, and it closes everywhere.

    • When multiple results match your search, the field now displays the match count (e.g., 1/21).

    • Select All shortcuts will select all found items or click the blue number count.

  • Categories on Import - Added the ability to add categories as part of a Copy or Move import.

  • Delete Notification enhancements - Changed the delete dialog box to make it clear when images are being deleted on all devices. To prevent accidental erasures, you’ll need to confirm all deletes. To do so, press Cmd+Return (macOS) / Ctrl+Return (Windows) or click the confirmation button.

Note: If you are positive that you want to delete an item, Shift+Delete will invoke the delete command and not ask for confirmation. Use cautiously - for advanced users.

  • SyncCollections and Device Sync Policy improvements - SyncCollections introduce more granular control over the Device Sync Policy setting of a specific device. SyncCollections are specific to device sync configurations and they replace the previous use of QuickCollections for this purpose.

    • Create, view, modify, or delete custom SyncCollections

    • SyncCollections allow you to choose which media sync based on combinations of one or more of the following criteria:

      • Rating

      • Label

      • Flag

      • Keyword

      • Folder

      • Date

      • File Type

      • File Extension

      • File Size

      • Category

    • You can save a Custom Sync Policy Preset to capture your own set of rules that you may want to reuse on multiple devices

    • Please review our documentation for more details on how to use these new features

  • Updated Folder Appearance - the Folder view has received a visual update.

    • The Folder Grid is updated to use a folder-like icon.

    • The counts for images and subfolders are easier to read.

    • The Tap to Sync and Tap to Categorize buttons have touch-friendly spacing as well as a contrasting background to make them easier to see and use.

    • The ghosted stack effect has been removed to boost loading performance and screen redraw.

    • You can still use Flutter to change covers - flip with a finger or select a folder and use Shift+Scroll wheel or trackpad.

    • You can still choose a single file to set as a cover; just choose Set Cover Folder from the Quick Actions menu or right-click menu.

Note: If you do not want the visual changes, you can revert to the older user interface by accessing Settings > Device Appearance and disabling the Use folder icons switch.

  • Temporary Sync Conflicts folders - In rare cases, your Mylio Photos+ devices might experience confusion about the current state of your library. This can occur when conflicting changes are made on multiple devices, such as moving the same folder to different locations on two devices. These issues typically arise when multiple users make large changes to the library or when a device has been offline for an extended period.

    • Previously, such conflicts often caused folders to temporarily appear near the top of a device’s directory, leading many users to panic or attempt to manually reorganize files during a sync—often making the problem worse. Now, these temporary changes are isolated in a special folder on each device called Temporary Sync Conflicts. This folder is normally hidden unless a sync issue needs to be resolved. It's recommended to leave this folder untouched and allow Mylio Photos+ to finish syncing your devices. Most issues should be resolved automatically. If problems persist, please contact support through the Help menu in the app.

Other Changes and Improvements

  • Per-Image Sync Policy: You can now change the Sync Policy for individual images using the Info panel. Just click the icon next to Sync Policy in the Info panel to adjust how the file syncs on the current device. This goes beyond a simple cache—your selection becomes part of the syncing rules and remains in effect unless you modify it.

  • Custom Spaces and QuickCollections: When creating a custom Space, you can use a QuickCollection to define which files are viewable. The menu has been updated for clarity, indicating that only Category-based QuickCollections are supported, with unsupported options clearly marked.

  • Spaces Switcher Access: The Spaces Switcher has been added to the View menu on Desktop and Laptop devices for easier access.

  • Batch Tagging and Spaces: The Batch Tagging tool for people now respects the active Space’s settings, ensuring a more consistent tagging experience.

  • Metadata Updates: Metadata fields now meet IPTC specifications, ensuring their labels are always visible.

  • Catalog Repair and Reindexing: If you need to run a catalog repair, the application will first attempt a reindex. This process is much quicker and often resolves minor errors in a device’s library.

  • Improved Stability After Sleep: Waking a device from sleep now offers better stability for reconnecting and syncing for Mylio Photos+ users.

  • Full-Screen Application Frame: Depending on your macOS keyboard, you can now press F11 or Fn (Globe) + F to enter full-screen application mode.

  • Full-Screen Image View: In single image or grid view, press Shift+F to enter or exit the full-screen image view for the selected image. The Info panel and grid position are now better preserved when exiting the full-screen view.

  • New Device Sync Policy Preset - "Everything": We’ve added a new Device Sync Policy called "Everything," designed for drives that won’t remain plugged in and running. It keeps a complete copy of your library on the device, storing files at full resolution. For additional file protection, choose the Vault preset.

Bugs fixes and user-requested improvements

Many fixes to previously reported issues, including:

  • Syncing During Updates: The "Mylio Update Available" dialog will no longer pause syncing. Previously, leaving this dialog open could unintentionally halt syncing.

  • Image Editing Presets with Levels: Custom image editing presets that use the Levels command are now stored correctly.

  • Apple Photos Library Fix: An issue that caused images from an Apple Photos library to incorrectly pair display images has been resolved.

  • Full-Screen Video Playback: Exiting full-screen video playback now correctly returns you to the grid view when the Escape key is pressed.

  • Resolved a variety of localization and translation issues.

Updated Plan Names and Benefits

Mylio Photos

We’ve made a significant change in how the free version of Mylio Photos works. We’ve expanded the capabilities of the application so that more people can use Mylio technology to improve their photo libraries.

  • View and enjoy images by browsing a collection using the LifeCalendar and Map to explore based on time and place.

  • Automated organization and AI-powered tools to help find photos easily. Additional organization can be done using face tagging, folders, albums, and keywords.

  • Enhance, crop, and straighten images with essential editing tools.

  • Share your photos by easily exporting photos or through a shared clipboard and sharing commands.

Note: The application can be installed on all of a user’s devices, but each device remains independent, using only its own available storage. You cannot add the protection of vaults or encrypted Cloud storage. Mylio Photos will not synchronize full-quality data or create backup copies without the Mylio Photos+ plan.

    • Sync Policy Presets:

      • Catalog — Only keep thumbnails of each photo; uses the minimum amount of space possible. Viewing a full-size copy of a photo will require another device with Mylio Photos+ installed and running.

      • Highest Rated – Keep full-sized copies of all photos, videos, and documents that have been rated with four or five stars. Also, store any items marked with a Pick flag. Other media can be synced on-demand from another device with Mylio Photos+ installed and running.

      • Photos Only — Keep full-sized copies of all your photos on this device (as space is available). The device will not keep videos or documents, which can be synced on-demand from another device with Mylio Photos+ installed and running.

      • Space Saver — Only keep compressed copies; originals will be stored on your other devices. Files are compressed to approximately 1/10 the size but are still editable and look identical to the originals on all standard-size displays.

      • Travel Backup — Keep full-sized copies of all media from the last 3 months. Will not keep older media; great for backup while on the road.

      • Vault (All Files) — Keep a complete copy of your library on this device. Files are stored at full resolution. Great for backup and protection.

      • Custom… – Create your own sync settings…

  • Major Expansion of Keyboard Shortcuts - significantly expanded the keyboard shortcuts to help power users get things done more quickly. Full list of shortcuts in our Manual. Also available as a downloadable PDF.

  • Frame.io Importer - direct integration connecting to the Frame.io storage and collaboration platform.

    • Media production teams and individual contributors using Frame.io 1 Camera to Cloud (C2C), can use Mylio Photos as an easy-to-use and efficient hub: connecting workflows and making it easier to work with new assets captured to the cloud.

    • Camera to Cloud technology means a photographer can capture in the field and instantly send images back to a team, including a client, producer, and an image retoucher. Or, a video crew can work on-set and have each clip transferred as soon as it’s captured, speeding up post-production and collaboration.

    • Log in and access all your Frame.io projects and folders then quickly import to Mylio Photos library and local storage. Mylio Photo’s Open With command makes handoff files to photo editing and video editing tools easy. This enables assets from Frame.io to be seamlessly exchanged with any software tool. Plus, files are mirrored on local drives for faster access speeds and no Internet connectivity issues.

  • More Camera Support - This release adds support and enhancements for several new cameras and formats. Mylio Photos provides superior raw photo processing and compatibility for even the latest cameras.

Be sure to UPDATE the app on all your devices


Updated March 16, 2023

Refresh Version 22.1.7558

Changes When Installing Mylio Photos

Whether you’re a first-time user or setting up a new device, we’ve vastly simplified the setup and installation of the Mylio Photos app. We worked with many new users and did extensive testing to get things perfect for 97% of users without needing to ask a bunch of hard questions.

Support for passwordless login

We are rolling out support for magic link–style logins. This is currently only available for new accounts. Instead of assigning a password to your account, you will receive an email with a link to log in. This is used to access your account on the website or to sign in to the application on a new device. This method is both easier and safer than passwords. Your email is generally only accessible on a device that you control and often has biometric locks already installed.

Note: This option is only available right now for new account sign-ups.

We plan to bring magic link–style logins as an option to all users later this year. We’ll also support combining magic links and a password for a two-factor authentication method.

Facebook and Instagram Changes

The team over at Facebook have recently made a bunch of changes that affect how outside applications can use Facebook data. As such, a few changes are happening inside Mylio Photos.

Facebook ID to login. We’ve had to remove the ability to log into Mylio Photos with your Facebook ID. This only affects a small number of Mylio Photos users. However, we are working on a tool to migrate your account soon. You can stay logged into any device right now, but cannot sign in on a new device. Our support team will help you through this … just reach out via this link.

Facebook and Instagram imports are temporarily broken. We are hard at work on these two important import options. We’re working closely with Facebook to establish access due to some security policy changes. We will update you when it is working again.

Note: You can still post to Facebook and Instagram using the Share menu on your mobile devices with Mylio Photos.

Camera Support

Added broad support for Canon’s compressed raw files using the Canon Compressed Raw (cRaw) format.

Bug fixes

We’ve made a lot of minor bug fixes. These include issues related to slow startup times, face proposals and tagging synchronization, failed deletes, general syncing bugs, and much more. Sincere thanks to everyone who takes the time to let us know by filing support tickets and submitting crash logs.


Updated February 2, 2023

Version 22.1.7551

Changes in Cloud Syncing

Recently, Amazon removed support for third-party applications to upload to Amazon Drive. As such, we have removed support from the Mylio Photos application. You can no longer add Amazon as a cloud device. If you previously added it, you can still READ pictures from Amazon Drive for the rest of 2023. However, we strongly encourage you to choose a new offsite storage and backup option.

You can now target any S3, or Simple Storage Service, as a host for Mylio Photos. This protocol is supported by many cloud storage providers such as Amazon Web Services, Backblaze B2, Wasabi, and others.

You can learn more here.

We’ve also added a button for all cloud devices to make it easy to Clear Cache. This is useful if you have unneeded files stored on your cloud device, such as temporary originals that are no longer needed.

You can also choose to set up a NAS as a S3 server. This process is fairly involved and technical. When setup this way, a NAS device no longer requires a host computer in order to synchronize with other devices. Just like with other cloud devices, the folder structure is maintained by the Mylio catalog and not visible in the file system. Here’s a guide on how to go about the setup process, This lets you host your own cloud from home. This is Step 2 in our journey to support a NAS and Mylio Photos integration. We’ll keep working on future improvements to make this process even better.

Camera Support

We’ve added additional raw support for several Canon cameras, including three of the newest models in the R-series mirrorless line:

  • Canon EOS R7

  • Canon EOS R6 Mark II

  • Canon EOS R10

Language Support

Added auto-translated support for the following languages:

  • Italian

  • Dutch

  • Brazilian Portuguese

  • Korean

  • Japanese

Bug fixes

Lots of miscellaneous bug fixes including crashes related to Face Tagging and applying timestamps.


Updated November 18, 2022
Version 22.1.7534

Bug Fix - resolved an issue where multiple folder imports would fail


Updated November 17, 2022

Updated Flags

Flags help you quickly mark the keepers and the rejects. Mylio Photos now offers a Reject Flag. You can draw images you no longer want as rejected.

QuickReview mode

Swipe to pick the best photos with QuickReview mode. It’s easy to review hundreds of pictures quickly to pick favorites with the new QuickReview mode. Use gestures on touch devices to swipe right to keep a photo andswipe left to reject and flag it for deletion.

New gestures also support one-handed organizing from a phone for Flags and Star ratings. Or in any full-screen view, you can drag on the left half of the screen to add stars. Likewise, drag on the right half if you want to use Flags.

Clean up rejected files

Hide or delete rejected photos. Once an image is marked as rejected, a user can hide it from view to declutter their picture library. Or, quickly clean up a folder or even a whole drive to remove rejected pictures.

Move to Folder tool

Moving photos to a new location is super easy. The new Move to Folder tool lets you browse a folder tree of your whole library. You can also filter to find a particular photo fast, see recent folders you've used, or make a new destination.

  • Now it’s now more convenient to move photos between folders.

  • Users can see all their folders, quickly search for a specific location, and move individual photos or entire collections to create a well-organized hard drive and backup.

Back up more social media

Get all your photos from Instagram. The Instagram Backup tool can download both photos and videos from your account directly into Mylio Photos.

Improved Background syncing utility for desktop

Be sure to use the background syncing utility for desktops. Mylio Photos can launch automatically when a computer is turned on and run in the background to keep photos backed up and protected effortlessly. You never even have to see the application at work; Mylio Photos runs and protects your photo library. If you don't want this option, you can disable it in the Settings menu.

Improved Network Performance

Mylio Photos can back up every photo from all linked devices to a hard drive connected to a home computer. This process is now even faster with improved network performance that can automatically adapt as the connection type or speed changes.

Picture editing improvements and new features

Mylio Photos offers essential editing tools for nondestructive edits so users can easily adjust tone, color, and details for better images from any device.

  • New editing tools include controls forLevels for professional-quality tone adjustments,

  • Precision eyedroppers to white balance photos for accurate color.

  • A new Vignette tool with useful controls for adding a focal point.

Complete round-trip editing

Mylio Photos offers an even more convenient external editing workflow. Users can fetch high-quality original raw images photos from hard drives on demand and then seamlessly hand them off to other photo-editing applications. It's also easy to exchange edited files (such as TIFF, PNG, or JPEG; up to 16-bit) for additional edits. When done, save the changes. Edited images are backed up for immediate viewing on all linked devices.

Image-quality improvements

Take advantage of more control when editing. The updatedMylio Photos gives users expanded visibility and control in its 16-bit, ProPhotoRGB color space editing pipeline. This ensures maximum image quality from all cameras. In addition, now users working with raw photos can customize settings for professional-quality exports.

A persistent histogram

Want the histogram to help you judge exposure and color? Once you open it, it stays put. no more scrolling off the page as you use the editing tools. Be sure to also try out the clipping indicators by clicking the circles. For example, red areas are overexposed, and blue are underexposed with clipped details.

Auto Color for washed-out images

Get rid of faded colors. The Auto Color command applies a powerful adjustment that looks at each color channel. Contrast is then optimized on a per-channel basis, and natural color and contrast are restored with just one click.

Levels with eyedroppers

Control exposure and color. You can easily adjust the exposure and contrast, even on the Red, Green, or Blue details, with independent controls. Levels are perfect for enhancing contrast and colors and the same time. Be sure to check out the updated product manual for complete details.

Creative Vignette

A new Vignette tool with useful controls for adding a focal point. You can easily create a gentle darkening effect with soft edges around your subject. To refine placement of the effect, try adjusting the rotation and shape and using the Choose Subject button.

Invert for scanned negatives and slides

  • Drop image files into an email, add them to a PowerPoint slide or Slack conversation, and much more with simple Copy/Paste shortcuts.

SafeShare

Safely share memories online. Photos often contain sensitive information about you or where a photo was taken. This information is excellent for searching in your Mylio Photos library, but doesn't need to be posted to public websites. When you enable the SafeShare option on export, all metadata is stripped from your photo.

Mylio InBox

The Mylio InBox is where to send new photos when on the go. Whether you're on social media, reading a WhatsApp message, or browsing on your laptop, you should try the Mylio InBox. The improved Mylio InBox makes it easy to get files into Mylio Photos. For example, use the Share command on mobile and select the inbox. Or, use the Inbox as a shortcut on your desktop or laptop as an easy way to drop in new files from a computer.

Expanded camera support

Expanded Fujifilm raw support. For those who capture images with cameras from Fujifilm, the new Mylio Photos version provides superior raw photo processing and compatibility for even the latest cameras. Mylio Photos also supports raw photos from manufacturers, including Canon, Nikon, Olympus, and Sony. Full list of supported Cameras https://support.mylio.com/raw-support/

Usability Improvements

We've also added some significant usability improvements. Here are a few small but functional changes.

Right-Click and Quick Action menu

We've made the menu more compact and better organized. Just right-click on a computer or use the Quick Action menu in the lower-right corner.

Grid view shortcut

  • An issue where typing a name in Face Recognition would delete entered text

  • An issue where numerous duplicates would be create for a specific file

  • An issue where Facebook login on Android devices was not possible

How to update the app?

Just launch Mylio Photos when connected to the internet. The desktop application should prompt you for an update.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Updated July 12, 2022

Version 22.0.7500

This update makes several improvements and addresses bugs and customer feedback.

Please note that this is an optional update.

You do not need to update all devices at the same time.

Full support for the German language

We worked closely with a group of German photographers to translate both the Mylio Photos application and the product manual into German.

Improved Lightroom and Lightroom Classic support

Users can now hand off multiple photos at once to Lightroom or Lightroom Classic (as long as Adobe recognizes them as supported files). Get the details.

Even smarter Smart Previews for use while on the go

While Mylio Photos can still fetch originals if needed, it will now try to use the Smart Preview first if you export or share while on the go. This means fewer downloads and less waiting. If you choose to open in an external editor or export an original or high-quality print, it’ll still fetch the original quality from another device.

Face tagging refinements

When tagging faces it's much easier to see which face is selected for tagging. Instead of white and gray you’ll now see the active face with a blue circle and tagged faces in white. We’ve also sped up the auto-tagging feature by not cluttering them in the batch tagging section. There is also a toggle with to hide unconfirmed faces from a person’s view to not show proposals and auto-tagged faces.

Date Picker learns new styles

The date picker is now easier to use: It respects additional date-format styles that are preferred in different regions of the world. We’ve also made it easier to see all options in the drop-down list of choices. Plus, we fixed a bug that affected some users where edited timestamps weren’t being applied correctly.

Improvements to Fetch Originals

When exporting photos and video at full quality, Mylio Photos can fetch both from a connected device when you choose File > Export and set the format to Unmodified Original.

Easier editing controls

Mylio Photos offers an easy editor for quick edits on all your devices. (You can even edit high-quality raw photos right on your smartphone.) Now, the editor is even easier to use. If you move a slider and then change your mind, just double-click or double-tap to reset the slider to the default value.

IPTC Card fixed

We fixed a small bug that caused the IPTC Card to be ignored. This is a really useful tool that lets you set up a business card for your photography. You can add information like creator, email, copyright, and more. Plus, this information can be automatically applied when you import photos as well.

Easier-to-use Quick Actions and right-click menu

The right-click menu on the desktop (or quick actions menu in the lower-right corner) has Mylio Photos’ most used commands. We’ve updated this menu to make it simpler to use — and added more choices.

  • Media | You can now invoke Share to send files, Duplicate to make a copy of a file, or Copy to add to the system clipboard.

  • Open With is also available. If you select a photo in your library, you can now hand it off quickly to the last-used external editor.

Better support for iOS Cinematic Mode video

Mylio Photos can now display video captured with an iPhone’s Cinematic Mode. If you want to edit the depth-of-field settings, Apple only allows that in the Apple Photos app. But Mylio Photos will display the video correctly.

Bug Fixes

  • Resolved seven situations that could cause Mylio Photos to crash.

  • Resolved false notifications about vaults being out of sync

  • Resolved inconsistent results when using “Show in Folder”

  • Many minor bug issues resolved

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Updated June 22, 2022
Version 22.0.7491.


This update addresses one usability issue and one minor bug.

Please note that this is an optional update.

You do not need to update all devices at the same time.

Import from iOS or Android devices as a memory card

While most users prefer to keep their phones in sync using the Mylio Photos mobile app, some users like to manually import from time to time like a memory card. The latter feature worked on Windows but was challenging to do on macOS. Now, it works great on both platforms.

Note: Make sure you check the General Settings controls to ensure that Show "Import SD Card" Dialog is enabled.

A fix for slow catalog syncing

In rare cases, a bug with face detection and syncing could create a long loop of checking back and forth. Catalog sync times grew really large (from seconds to hours). Though very few people were affected, this fix takes care of it for those who did.

Mylio Photos 22.0 Release Notes

Updated June 8, 2022
Version: 22.0
macOS Build: 22.0.7484
Windows Build: 22.0.7484
iOS Build: 22.0.7484
Android Build: 22.0.7484

Features

  • Easier Imports

    • Faster First Import - When you add Mylio Photos for the first time, you can choose an existing folder of images for an accelerated import.

    • Easier Linked Folders - Already have images on a drive? Just choose a folder and you can link to images rather than needing to copy or move them.

    • Memory Cards - If Mylio Photos is running and you plug in a memory card, the Import dialog pops up automatically.

  • Convenient Editing

    • Updated Edit Panel - We’ve cleaned up the edit panel to make it easier to find and use your favorite tools.

    • Auto Enhance Button - Need a quick fix? Just click the Auto Enhance button (or press Cmd+U/Ctrl+U).

    • Crop Tool - Quickly crop to the shape you need. You can also Flip images horizontally and vertically, or rotate 90 degrees right or left all from the same tool.

    • Edit With Your Workflow - Need to hand off to another tool for editing? You can choose Open With on a laptop or desktop and share with any editing application you have installed.

  • Get Organized

    • Find and Remove Duplicates - Want to free up space on your hard drives? Look for duplicate files in your Mylio Photos Library and use our new deduplication tool to get rid of images that have ended up being imported multiple times.

    • Auto-Tagging - Face-tagging gets faster. After you manually tag approximately 20 photos of the same person, Mylio Photos wil auto-recognize them in most cases.

    • New Date Picker - Organize pictures with dates or seasonal information to make things easier to find. Scanned photos can often need fuzzy dates or ranges to make them easier to find.

  • What You Want, When You Need It

    • Fetch Originals - Mylio Photos can automatically grab the original-quality images you need when you share, print, export, etc.

    • iCloud Photos On-Demand - Your Apple Photos camera roll works seamlessly with Mylio Photos. Add Mylio Photos on all your macOS and iOS devices. Mylio Photos can fetch full-quality files from your iCloud Photo Library as needed, and can also remain up-to-date as you capture new photos.

  • Get More Done

    • Updated Toolbar - It's so much easier to understand Mylio. The new toolbar shows you sync status, clearer alerts, and easier updates.

    • Improved Network Connections - Your devices can see and talk to each other more effectively thanks to major boosts in how they connect. This includes the ability to mix IPV4 and IPV6 networks.

    • Improved Scanner Performance - Mylio Photos can detect external edits and new images at least 50% faster than before.

  • Better Help, More Assistance

    • New Onboarding - Get up and running with less effort. Easy tools get you set up right away and make it easy to import and set up Mylio Photos.

    • Sample Library - You can explore an organized sample library or download these photos to follow along with hands-on video training.

    • Quick Access to Help - Our redesigned help system makes it easy to reach the comprehensive Product Manual, Support Forum, Customer Support, and the Mylio Photos community.

    • Mylio Photos QuickStart Course - We've built a detailed hands-on learning class that's free for all Mylio users to help you learn how to use Mylio Photos and all its benefits.
