Filters for Photos
Filters for Photos is a photography app developed by Macphun (now Skylum) that provides additional filter and editing effects for the macOS Photos app. The app integrates directly with Apple's Photos application as an extension, allowing users to apply professional-grade filters, adjustments, and creative effects to their images without leaving the Photos environment. It was designed to enhance the built-in editing capabilities of Photos with more advanced filtering options, color adjustments, and artistic effects. The app appealed to both casual photographers looking to quickly enhance their images and more serious photographers wanting convenient access to professional-grade filters within their existing Photos workflow.
Suggested Replacements
1 suggestionThis app appears to be discontinued or abandoned by its developer, Skylum (formerly Macphun). The company has shifted focus to their standalone applications like Luminar and Aurora HDR, and no longer maintains or updates Filters for Photos. Since this was a Photos extension, I recommend using the built-in editing tools in Apple Photos (which have significantly improved over the years) combined with Pixelmator Pro, a native Apple Silicon app that offers excellent filter and editing capabilities. Alternatively, consider Skylum's current flagship product Luminar Neo, which is actively maintained and offers Apple Silicon support, though it operates as a standalone editor rather than a Photos extension.
