About
On each launch ten random images from the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day collection over the past ten years is displayed. Each picture is accompanied by a description, the date and the URL for downloading it. The list of URLs and metadata corresponding to the current list of photos can be shared or copied. Images can be saved to the Photos library all at once or individually, or copied to the pasteboard. Share photos with metadata as a PDF, with one photo per page.
What's new · 1.1.1
• Fixed an issue on iOS 26 where photos would not pan until the drag gesture ended. • Added mouse-wheel zooming on macOS while holding the Option key. • Added clip previews in the Saved Clips view via the new magnification button in each clip row. Previous updates: • Every photo now includes a scissors button in the upper-left corner. Tap it to open the photo in a zoom and pan view, then tap Add Clip to save a clipping of the current zoomed and positioned area. • Saved clippings can be accessed from the new Saved Clips section at the top of the main view whenever clips are available. • In Saved Clips, you can reorder clippings and generate a collage using the layout selected in the Options view. • Tap the Options button in the upper-right corner of the main view to choose a collage layout. Two new layouts, Vertical Row and Rectangular, have been added alongside the existing Square and Horizontal Row layouts. • Sharing is now entirely file-based, and shared files use descriptive filenames instead of generic names. • When the server is slow, you can now view already-downloaded images and stop the rest from downloading. A progress bar shows how many of the 10 images have loaded.
