Topaz Photo v1.7.1

Hello everyone!

Today we have a patch update for Topaz Photo with some important fixes.

You can find the installer links and the full changelog below for this version of Topaz Photo.

For any additional issues, make sure to send us an email to support@topazlabs.com


Note for Apple M6 users:

  • We are continuing to investigate and improve compatibility with Apple M6 machines running macOS 27.
  • Our initial findings with v1.7.1 suggest that the app may appear frozen during the first image analysis, when it is actually taking significantly longer to initialize the AI models.
  • Depending on the image size and models being used, the initial load may take 15–30 minutes. Once the models have loaded and their cache has been built, subsequent processing should return to normal speeds.
  • These initial loading times are not expected behavior, and our development team is actively working to improve them. If you’re experiencing this issue, try allowing the initial analysis to complete and let us know whether processing improves afterward. If the issue persists, share your app logs with our Support team. Your findings and logs will be forwarded to our development team as part of the ongoing M6 compatibility investigation.
