Photo Apps for Mac Desktop

Whether you've just taken a weekend trip up North or the European vacation of your dreams, you're guaranteed to return home with a massive amount of photos, probably a handful of videos, and, if you were feeling particularly artsy, half a dozen time-lapses. Now that you're home, what are you going to do with all those pictures? Where are you going to keep them? How are you going to share them?

One great option is to use Gemini 2, a free, open-source photo app available across multiple platforms, including iOS. With Gemini 2, you can choose which folders to scan or select your entire hard drive. The best part? It's completely free.

Another great media player for Mac desktop is VLC. When you absolutely, positively must play a video file and you're not sure Apple's QuickTime player will support it, VLC is the first media player you should download. Plus, you can connect a compatible Bluetooth controller for some old-fashioned gamepad gaming on your new Mac.

If you're looking to play games on your Mac, there are lots of amazing options available. You can download Steam and browse through its 50,000+ games to see which ones run on Macs. Not every game on Steam is compatible with macOS, but Steam makes it easy to filter through its massive library to find the perfect game for you.

Additionally, there are many other great photo apps available for Mac desktop, including everything from Sid Meier's Civilization VI and Stardew Valley to Cuphead, Hades, Disco Elysium and more. Whether you're a casual gamer or an avid photographer, there are plenty of options to choose from.
