Photo Privacy
Photo Privacy is a macOS utility designed to protect sensitive photographs and personal image files by encrypting them or limiting access through password protection. It allows users to manage a private photo library separate from their main Photos app, with features for securing images before sharing a Mac with others or storing photos in cloud backups. The app targets privacy-conscious individuals who want granular control over which images are accessible to other users of the same computer or cloud services.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find current information about Photo Privacy's native Apple Silicon support status — the developer's site or recent release notes are not appearing in search results. Given that you are running this app on an Intel-only build today under Rosetta 2, you should contact the developer at the bundle ID domain (cocoawithchurros.com) to ask directly whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned. This is important to confirm soon, since Apple is removing Rosetta 2 entirely in macOS 28 (September 2028), at which point an Intel-only build will stop launching completely. If the developer is no longer active or unresponsive, search for modern privacy-focused photo management alternatives like Librarian Pro or standard macOS features like hidden albums in the Photos app, both of which run natively on M-series Macs.
