On import, you have virtually no metadata control. Boo! However….On import, you have a very flexible name-changing system. Yay!.These two chaps gave me a great demo and put up with all my tough questions at WPPI thanks guys! And every feature that's missing is something they are working on. Here's what I can tell you, good and bad, that really stuck out for me on the show floor. There are some very compelling features here. I can even see shooting tethered (not with built-in support but using tether software that ingests to the mylio folder) and seeing those photos pop up on an iPad the client is holding.
#Mylio vs aperture portable#
Gone are the days of storing a library on a portable drive if you need to access it from multiple systems, gone are the days of a single computer that has to be shared by husband and wife or photographer and assistant, gone are the days of planning which photos to include on your iPhone, and enter the days editing on one device and having edits sync instantly across all of them.
#Mylio vs aperture android#
So what does it do? In essence, it's a DAM (digital asset management) tool that synchronizes across multiple devices ( OS X, Windows, and iOS, with Android to come), and includes some basic image enhancement tools, with full support for “open in editor”. It may not be able to replace Lightroom or Aperture today for advanced users, but honestly there's a possibility that by integrating Photo Mechanic as an ingest tool and letting mylio take it from there, you could have a very powerful and flexible DAM on your hands. Of course now that we've seen what Photos will be, and I got a very nice demo and answers to some tough questions at WPPI, I'm extremely excited about what mylio can be. It sounded intriguing, but honestly when I first heard about it I thought “oh, shame, Photos.app will do all that”.

I've heard of mylio before (they're advertising department appears to be very well funded), but hadn't given it much of a look. From the show floor at WPPI 2015 in Las Vegas…
