StillView reads your folders in place and analyzes images on your Mac. It has no account, analytics, or tracking, it’s free, and the source is on GitHub. github.com/vscarpenter/Simpl…
Close StillView, come back tomorrow, and you’re on the same image in the same folder, with your sort order and filters intact. Command-R refreshes the folder and keeps your selected image if it’s still there. stillviewapp.com

Ask StillView what’s in a photo and Apple Intelligence answers on your Mac. In 5.1 the descriptions are shorter and stick to what’s visible, and your images never go to an AI service. stillviewapp.com

Receipts, signs, screenshots, and scans all hold text you might need. StillView pulls it out so you can copy it, even with AI Insights off or Apple Intelligence unavailable. 5.1 also reads tall images and scanned documents better. stillviewapp.com

Big collection, one shot you need. Expand the folder tree to focus on a single branch, or search by filename or folder path. New in StillView 5.1. stillviewapp.com

Your photos already live in folders inside folders. Turn on Include Subfolders and StillView gathers every image under one folder into a single grid, and your files stay right where you put them. stillviewapp.com

StillView 5.1 is out. Browse a folder and all its subfolders in one collection, then narrow it with the folder tree or a path search. Text recognition now works even with Apple Intelligence off. Free for Apple silicon Macs on macOS 27. stillviewapp.com

A second opinion, when you ask. Apple Intelligence can describe a shot's subject on your Mac, on demand, never in the cloud. stillviewapp.com

The numbers behind the frame. Camera, lens, aperture, shutter, ISO, and GPS sit one panel away, and a click copies any value. stillviewapp.com

The whole shoot at a glance. StillView moves between single, strip, and grid views without losing your place in the set. See it in the new screenshots: stillviewapp.com

StillView's home on the web got a refresh. New screenshots, a cleaner look, and the same promise: no import, no library, no tracking. Your photos, viewed in place. stillviewapp.com

Built natively for macOS with SwiftUI.
StillView feels like it belongs on your Mac because it does — light mode, dark mode, and the small details that let it disappear into the OS. 🍎

JPEG, PNG, HEIC, GIF, WebP, TIFF, BMP, SVG.
StillView opens whatever your Mac throws at it — and then gets out of the way.

Culling a shoot?
StillView gives you a clean fullscreen view, fast navigation, and a responsive thumbnail grid — so you can move through hundreds of frames without the weight of a full editor. 📷
