That’s okay – you can fill out the form for beta testing. In there, if you include your App Store email address so I can sign you up for Apple’s TestFlight service, that will save a step. Scroll to the bottom of this page: https://www.gentlemencoders.com/nitro-roadmap/index.html
The list on Apple’s site does not differentiate decoder versions. So, it includes cameras with V7, V8 or V9. You cannot tell if a camera has V9 support from that list.
Ok, I was able to reproduce it all of sudden. Very weird. A fix will be forthcoming. Probably version 2026.09.
Sorry to hear that. As I wrote earlier, the problem is in iOS. The best I can do is to move the trash off the user interface thread so that it doesn’t hang up the app, but it’s still up to iOS to do the work properly. I can also add a delete option.
The 2026.08 update is out, so if you have iOS 27, then you should get a Delete alert in Nitro because the Move to Trash is broken on iOS 27.
Since I cannot reproduce this problem, are you willing to beta test when I have the above changes implemented?
Right now, the app always goes to the trash. iOS 27 broke the trash for apps, so the next update to the Nitro will detect that bug and ask if you want to delete the images directly. I don’t know if that will solve your problem or not, because if the OS is stuck, then it may be stuck for delete also. Perhaps the OS is busy indexing the images or something like that.
I don’t know. I tried it myself before posting. If the code is not able to get the mouse position, then it zooms to the center.
Are you using the Nitro app, or the Nitro Photo extension (inside Photos)?
Stacking is supported when using the Photo Library, but not when using the file system. That feature is on the roadmap.
Hi Marius, sorry to hear about this. I have not looked much into the trash freezing up problem, other than to review the logs.
iOS 27 has made things worse – there is no move to trash any more. Only delete. I believe what is happening to you is that the OS is stuck trying to move the files and it is waiting for some other program on the device to finish.
On macOS, Nitro will zoom to the cursor. On iOS, it also zooms to the cursor if you double-click on the image to zoom. If you use the space bar or the Z key, then on iOS, it currently does not. iOS doesn’t have a straightforward way to find the cursor location when a key press occurs. There may be a workaround – I’ll add it to the list of customer requests.
Click the crop tool again, which will show you the entire image. Then you can reposition the crop, or change the aspect ratio, etc.
Nitro will be able to read and write the ratings in Photos. It will be in the upcoming 2026.08 release. When you open that version of Nitro it will check to see if you have any Apple Photos ratings and walk you through how to synchronize them. If you tell Nitro to keep them in sync, then it will store ratings in the same place that Apple Photos does (and read them from there).
Thanks for sending me the image and XMP. There is a bug with the contrast filter in Nitro. I have made a note to fix it, but I have to do it in a way that doesn’t change the appearance of all images that use contrast. For this use-case, I suggest using an S-curve in Curves, or the mid-point controls in Levels (top and bottom). Sorry for the issue.
The next update to Nitro will have full support for Apple’s 10-year-overdue support for ratings (it was in iPhoto, for Pete’s sake). It’s in beta testing now. It’s quite complicated because Nitro already has ratings, and people may use Photos to set ratings, etc. But beta testers have used it and it seems to work fine.
I have not seen that, no. However, in the dark areas (which are close to zero), you can get some funny values (including negative values), which can behave unexpectedly under certain mathematical operations. If you want to send a RAW + XMP to me, I can try to look into it when I have some time (email the support address and I can give you an upload link)
