If DxO were interested in the convenience and happiness of their users, they would:
- stop requiring the latest or latest -1 version of the OS (I will not be upgrading PhotoLab again, when v8 comes out without Monterey support). I’m happily on four year OS upgrade cycles and PhotoLab has already cost me more time and inconvenience than any other piece of software.
- Add support for iOS and Android DNG so their users don’t always have to dabble in two or three extra RAW development tools. For those interested in iOS, either Darkroom (subscription only I believe now, so don’t recommend it) or RAW Power are the best of an awkward lot.
For anyone who suggests PhotoLab couldn’t do DNG, take a look at the examples on this thread which compare other RAW tools with PhotoLab on iPhone 11 files (I had to modify EXIF to make PhotoLab open them). The lack of support for mobile photography is just a huge thumb in the eye of users.
More people ask for mobile DNG support every year than any other feature.
