About ACDSee Free

No tedious importing! ACDSee Free connects directly to your computer drives, so you can search, sort, and view your photos instantly.

Built by ACDSee, SendPix™ is a free media sharing app seamlessly incorporated into ACDSee Free. Select and send to share memories with family and friends.
