If you’ve been taking photographs for any length of time, you’ll probably have thousands of digital files scattered over a variety of locations. Over the years, I’ve needed to purchase new external hard drives when the old ones were full of photos. As cloud storage has become more affordable, I also have thousands of images filling up my online storage space. A spread-out collection can be a nightmare to manage, especially if you have to rely on your memory of what’s stored where.
Mylio Photos+ is a Digital Asset Management (DAM) app that’s designed to help you take control over clips and stills wherever they happen to be, whether that’s on an SD card, an external hard drive or even in a cloud-based storage library. It’s packed full of tools to help you find your best shots and also to ditch space-wasting digital duplicates to free up storage space.
The app is also available to download as a free version, known as Mylio Photos. This boasts most of the tools found in the Mylio Photos+ subscription version but Mylio Photos+ has a few extra features, of course. These include a universal library that enables you to keep mobile and desktop files in sync. It also has the useful Photo DeDupe photo culling tool, which could save you lots of memory space. Here, we’re reviewing the subscription version, Mylio Photos+, which can be downloaded for free as a 30-day trial.
