“The release notes discuss keywords in the photo library, as does the video and the user manual. So, the new release does add functionality for the photo library. Please let me know how my descriptions could be better.

As far as showing keywords in Info, the info panel only shows keywords if the image has them. As a rule, I avoid showing blank lines in the metadata area. You can set keywords in Photos, and in Nitro (as mentioned in the video etc), you can view, filter, and make smart albums.

If you have a situation where an image in the Photo library has keywords and Nitro does not show them, please let me know.”

I think one way would be to have a table showing what works in the default macos Photos library and what works in the file system.

I watched the video but some things were hard to follow without actually trying to software (that’s not a critique just a fact of life.) When I launched the app I searched for the word keywords in the app UI and could not find it. Under metadata I found “tags” and I was immediately confused but assumed they would be different from keywords. Beyond that I could not find it.

You mentioned AI keywords. I still hvae no idea but I believe they only work with Filesystem libraries.

You mentioned smartfolders but smartfolders from Mac’s default photo lubrary don’t work as far as I know in Nitro.

I agree that you have implemented a lot of functionality. Kudos for that. But a feature should not require a documentation, a video, and emails to undertstand how to use it.
