CleanMyMac 3 introduces photo junk module

Great news for CleanMyMac 3 users! The app is bringing a much requested feature into its program: the photo junk module. It replaces the old iPhoto junk feature. With the new module you are given the ability clean Faces cache, clean iCloud cache, and replace RAWs with JPEGs. The last two features need your permission to happen. You don’t have to worry though, CMM3 also still supports iPhoto cleaning. Current CMM3 users get the upgrade for free, while CMM2 users get a 50 percent discount. You can get the new build here or through the company’s website.

Apple pulls iPhoto and Aperture from Mac App Store

With Photos for OS X now live, it's inevitable that Apple is pulling two of its photo-related apps. True enough, iPhoto and Aperture have been taken out of the Mac App Store. If you already have Aperture on your Mac, you'll still be able to use it. But that won't be getting any updates.  

What do you get with Photos for OS X then? The app is middle ground for both iPhoto and Aperture. It lets you browse through your photo gallery while offering some editing tools. But if you expect an extensive editing tool suite, sadly, you won't get that here.

Turn your Mac into an emoji machine with the emoji keyboard

Want to extend your emoji typing ways onto your Mac but want to make it easier? The team behind Disk Cactus has a Kickstarter project that’ll give you an emoji keyboard overlay. It isn’t a physical keyboard per se but rather a silicone covers that fit Apple’s wireless desktop keyboards, 13” MacBook Airs, 13/15” MacBook Pros, and the 11” MacBook Air.

The emoji keyboard works with corresponding software so you just need to press caps-lock key for a one-touch emoji shortcut. But if you play around with pairing shift, control, and option, you get around five characters per button. This’ll give you 150 emojis to play around with. The funding goal for the emoji keyboard is at US$20,000 and they have around 25 days to go. They have raised $4,500 at the moment and you can pledge as little as $5. But if you want the keyboard skin and software, you need to shell out $15.
