Your media libraries

Browse Photos, iCloud and folders on a Mac, and local and cloud folders on Windows and Linux.

Updated 8 October 2026

You can find your media inside Kaptcho, without opening another app.

On a Mac

In Shenron, open Media and choose Photos. In Porunga, use the Photos tab in the Browser. You can switch between Photos and iCloud, and pick an album. Kaptcho only asks for access the first time you open Photos, and macOS then asks whether Kaptcho may see your photos. You can change this later in System Settings, under Privacy & Security.

Folders

In Porunga, the Files tab shows your folders. Choose Add folder to watch a folder, and new files show up there by themselves. To stop, pick the folder and choose Stop watching followed by its name. On Windows and Linux this includes the cloud folders your computer already keeps in sync.

Use something

Drag a photo or video onto the timeline, or double-click it to add it to the end. Items that are only in iCloud are downloaded when you add them.

Your files stay put

Kaptcho uses media where it lives and never moves or changes it.
