Use third-party extensions: You can install third-party extensions from the Mac App Store, which you can use to expand your set of editing tools in Photos. You can use third-party extensions to create projects such as print products, slideshows, and customized websites. Go to the Mac App Store and look for apps that include Photos project extensions, then download and install them to use them with Photos. This is very good news indeed. I entered Photos extensions in the search bar of the Mac App Store and got 9 apps to come up (as of ). I'm not sure that all are even Photos extensions, either, but for sure, some of them are. I actually bought BeFunky Express for the teeth whitening and skin smoothing abilities. Create everything from gorgeous photo books to professionally framed gallery prints to stunning websites using third-party project extensions like Motif, Mimeo Photos, Shutterfly, ifolor, WhiteWall, Mpix, Fujifilm, and Wix. Download third-party extensions from the Mac App Store.

This is very good news indeed. I like to work with Photos for Mac, but the current support for projects (books, calendars, slideshows) is somewhat limited and basic.

  • When you edit a photo with third-party extensions or the built-in tools that Photos offers, you can always start over with the original photo. Open the photo in edit mode, then click Revert to Original on your Mac or tap Revert if you're using an iOS device.
  • If you use iCloud Photos, remember that it keeps your photos organized and up to date everywhere that you use the same Apple ID. So any edits that you make on one device appear on your other devices too.
