It’s not too long before users generally realize they’ve outgrown the built-in Photos app as the default image viewer. Besides being unreliable at times, third-party alternatives are often more dependable and have a richer toolset, so the decision to switch apps is hardly a difficult one.
Third-party image viewers come in many forms, and some even happen to have portable versions. That's the case with nomacs-portable, which preserves all of nomacs’ functionality without requiring installation, making it a solid choice for a photo viewer to take on a USB stick, and more.
Needless to say, it must be stated that UI design is very important with these kinds of tools. If you don’t get along with the interface, then that can potentially take away from the experience of viewing your photos, so it’s best to find something that appeals to you on all fronts.
Design-wise, you get something that can best be described as no-nonsense. The controls are where you expect them to be, and the tool is sufficiently lightweight that you won’t have trouble running it. Support for image formats of all kinds is likewise available, so there’s no worrying on that front either.
A question you might be asking is how does this photo viewer set itself apart? I find that it’s quite expandable, as you can toggle different panels to get more information about your stills and navigate to them easier. There’s one for File Explorer, one for metadata, one for editing history, and using Thumbnail Preview makes it convenient to work through larger photo libraries.
There are some amenities that should help you quickly adjust your photos. They’re nothing too crazy, but if all you want to do is modify some luminance values and hues for your stills, it should work well enough. This extends to batch processing, where you can apply your configuration to multiple photos at once.
nomacs-portable may not seem like much initially: it’s a simple photo viewer, but it can be more than that. Aside from the listed features, I should mention that plugin support is available, further enhancing the scope and value of the app.
