Just a small addition... I downloaded an extension for the Photos app called ViewExif. When I use it on any of the imported photos in the Photos app, it tells me they are JPEGs, yet when I view them in Affinity they are RAW (this is correct, I shoot entirely in RAW). Is the Photos app hiding the RAW files and only showing a JPEG copy?

Thanks! Sorry that wasn't clear... yes you're right, once I've completed my workflow a single JPEG will remain in the Photos app. The problem I encounter is actually step 4 itself. After step 3 I have two images in Photos, a RAW and a JPEG, and I want to delete the RAW, but I can't tell which it is - especially if I've done minimal processing, or there's a string of similar images.

Does anyone know how to differentiate RAW from JPEG in the native iPad Photos app? On the Mac app there is a little icon in the top left corner that displays "J" or "R" but on the iPad I can't see any way to tell. In Affinity it's fine, I get a little RAW label on them, but due to my workflow I need to be able to see it in Photos too.
My workflow:
-
Import photos directly to Photos app from SD, in RAW format
-
"Import from Photos" in Affinity Photo
-
Process RAW in Affinity and save JPEG back to the Photos library.
-
Delete RAW file from Photos and keep the processed JPEG.
At the end of this, I have two photos side by side in my Photos library, one RAW and one JPEG and I can't tell which is which...
If anyone has a better workflow using Affinity I'd be happy to hear it! It'd be great if we could import directly from an SD to Affinity as this would cut out the need to use Photos to store RAW files.
Hardware: iPad Pro 10.5 + Apple Pencil
Software: Affinity Photo for iPad

iOS 12 Shortcuts app support in AD/AP?

Having just seen a shortcut for the Lightroom app "delete images from camera roll after import" I rushed to see if Affinity Photo supported something useful like this... but alas, it doesn't support Shortcuts.
Really hope it gets added in the future!
