EditAll vs Photomator
Both edit Apple Photos in place. Photomator is a pro editor. EditAll is one film look on everything.
Photomator, now from Apple, edits your Photos library in place with curves, levels, masks, and AI repair, on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. It is a pro editor for finishing photos. EditAll keeps one film look on while you browse every photo, and adds a live film camera, Memories, and People around it.
Already edited when you open it.
Take a trip's worth of photos. In EditAll every one of them is already in your look, so there is nothing left to edit, only to choose and share. In Photomator, each photo is edited before it can be shared.
