SnapView browsing images from an archive on Mac

One folder can contain many formats

Downloads, screenshots, camera exports, phone photos, design references, and archives often land in one folder. SnapView is designed to keep review moving across that mixed set instead of switching viewers for every format.

WebP files

Open WebP files in the same review flow as JPG, PNG, TIFF, RAW, and other common formats.

HEIC and HEIF photos

Review HEIC/HEIF images from modern Apple devices alongside local folders, Apple Photos sources, and ZIP archives.

GIF viewing with a clear caveat

Animated GIF and WebP playback is available in Main View. Other views may show a still first frame.

Archive and source variety

Use direct ZIP browsing, local folders, Apple Photos, supported videos, and wider ImageIO-backed image support.

Supported format scope

SnapView uses the macOS decoder set available on the running system. Public product copy lists ImageIO still formats, RAW camera files, MP4/MOV/M4V video, and ZIP archives for supported images inside archives.
