image viewer

Photo display software

An image viewer is software that displays digital images—photographs, graphics, or other visual files.

Basic viewers let you open and browse through images; more advanced ones offer slideshows, zoom functions, or light editing.

Operating systems include built-in image viewers, though many users prefer third-party alternatives with more features: I use a dedicated image viewer to sort through my photos.
