RAW Power
RAW Power is a Mac photo editor for working with RAW images, organizing photo libraries, and making detailed image adjustments.
What is RAW Power?
RAW Power is a native Mac photo-editing app built for photographers who want detailed control over RAW images and close integration with Apple photo workflows. It helps users review, organize, and adjust photos with tools for exposure, white balance, highlight recovery, black point, and other image corrections. The app can work with photos in Apple Photos as an extension and can also browse folders on disk, which makes it useful for both library-based and file-based editing. It includes rating and flagging tools, metadata viewing, filtering, presets, and export options for managing larger photo collections. RAW Power is designed for photographers who want stronger editing tools than the basic controls in Photos without moving to a full catalog or subscription-heavy workflow. Gentlemencoders focuses the app on Apple platforms, so it fits naturally into Mac-based photo editing and review setups.

Safety overview
Status: Safe
RAW Power is legitimate photo-editing software for macOS. Access to your photo library, image files, and related metadata is normal for its purpose, especially if you use it with Apple Photos or open folders of pictures from disk. Removing the app will stop its editing and library-management features, and edits made through its workflow may no longer be available inside the app. As with any photo editor, keep backups of important originals before making large batch changes or exports.
Recommendation: Keep RAW Power if you use it for RAW editing, photo review, or Apple Photos workflows on your Mac. If you no longer edit photos with it, you can remove it like other apps, but you may want to keep any original images, exported files, and project-related data you still need.
