Stmaro Posted February 23, 2020 Posted February 23, 2020 I’ve got an iPad Pro, and AP. All my RAW+JPG are saved in iCloud Photos app (NOT iCloud Drive). i am struggling to find a workflow that works here. I want to browse/organize photos via the Photos app, and then edit in AP. But there is no option to “edit in AP”. Instead I go to AP and have to “import from photos”, which then only lets me save a copy no matter what exporting options I try. This results in 2 of the same photo in Photos app, instead of 1 that I can “revert” if I decided to. I don’t want to add in tons of copies for every photo I choose to edit. what am I doing wrong? Pixelmator Photo, Snapseed, and others all let me do this. Am I doing something wrong or is this not a feature for AP? Quote
Dan C Posted February 24, 2020 Posted February 24, 2020 Hi Stmaro, Welcome to the forums Unfortunately there's no option directly in Photos to open an image into Affinity Photo, however you can create a Shortcut in iOS13 that allows you to do this with any image selected - Secondly, we don't support 'writing over' existing files in Photos, your exported image will always be saved as a new copy, my apologies. I've created a quick screen recording below which shows the process of using the Shortcut, importing from Photos and saving back - RPReplay_Final1582537481.MP4 Quote
