Frequently Asked Questions

What does Pixata edit?

Dates and locations. That's it. We don't edit titles, keywords, captions, ratings, or any other metadata. Pixata is purposefully focused - we'd rather do two things right than ten things halfway.

Why only dates and locations?

Because those are the two metadata fields that matter most and are hardest to fix. Wrong dates break your timeline. Missing locations mean lost memories. Other apps try to do everything - we chose to nail these two.

Can I undo my changes?

Yes! Every change is logged to a persistent change history. Browse all changes, filter by type or date, and revert any change with one click. Cmd+Z works too. You can even batch revert multiple changes at once.

Does Pixata modify my original photos?

Pixata works through Apple's PhotoKit API - the same technology Apple uses. Changes are made safely within your Photos library. Your originals remain protected, and changes sync across your devices.

Why is Pro so affordable?

$19.99 for lifetime access is fair pricing for a focused tool that does its job well. Similar tools charge $30-50 or require expensive subscriptions. Pay once, own it forever. The annual option at $9.99/year is there if you prefer flexibility.

Can I try before buying?

Yes! You get 40 free actions to try everything. No feature restrictions, no watermarks - just a generous trial to make sure Pixata works for you.

Do I need Apple Photos?

Yes, Pixata is designed specifically for Apple Photos libraries. This deep integration means non-destructive editing without duplicates or exports.

Is my data sent anywhere?

Never. Everything happens locally on your Mac. No internet required, no accounts, no cloud. Your photos stay in your library.
