Top 4 Hidden Features of Apple Photos in 2023


If you’re an Apple user, you’ve probably used the Photos app to organize and store your pictures. However, you may not be aware of all the great features it offers. In this article, we’ll explore four hidden features of Apple Photos on Mac that you should be using.

Manage Duplicate Photos

Do you have duplicate photos taking up space on your computer? With macOS Ventura, you can easily locate and manage them using the Photos app. Here’s how:

  • Open Photos and select “Duplicates” in the sidebar on the left.

  • The duplicate photos will appear on the right, sorted by date.

  • You can view the size, file name, and file format for each photo.

  • Photos also gives you the option to merge the photos instead of manually deleting those you don’t want.

  • If you prefer, you can also manually delete one of the duplicates.

Remove an Image Background

Sometimes, the background of a photo can be distracting. With Apple macOS Ventura, you can remove the background from an image in Photos on your Mac and paste the subject of your photo into another app. Here’s how:

  • Double-click the photo so that it’s in full view in the Photos app window.

  • Right-click the picture and click “Copy Subject.”

  • Head to the spot where you want to paste the image and use Command + V, select “Edit -> Paste” in the menu bar, or use the app’s paste option.

Create a Smart Album

Smart Albums in the Photos app work like Smart Folders in Finder and Smart Playlists in Music. You can set up criteria, and whenever the conditions for a photo are met, it’ll pop into the Smart Album for easy access. Here’s how:

  • With Photos open, select “File -> New Smart Album” from the menu bar.

  • In the pop-up window, enter a name for your album, then click “OK.”

  • Set up the first condition starting with the type of item in the first drop-down box.

  • To the right, complete the additional fields that appear to complete the string of what you are searching for.

  • You can find the new Smart Album in the Albums section of the sidebar.

Take Advantage of the Search

The Photos app provides a robust search feature. When you’re trying to find a photo, you don’t have to know the exact details or metadata to find it. Using dates, locations, or categories, you can search and narrow down your results to find what you need. Here’s how:

  • Start by entering a search term or keyword in the Search bar at the top of the Photos window.

  • Use the suggestions that appear to narrow down the results.

  • With each suggestion you select, you’ll see fewer and fewer photos display that apply to the keywords.

Third-Party Photo Finder

Core App Photo Finder feature is a useful tool for locating duplicate media on your device. The photo finder feature searches for and identifies images that are similar or exact duplicates, helping you to free up storage space and keep your photo library organized.

In conclusion, Apple Photos on Mac offers some great features to help you manage and organize your photos. Try out these hidden features and see how they can improve your photo management workflow.
