While I've been enjoying my time using photomator, honestly the single biggest pain point is also something easily fixed: the preset menu. The idea for the bottom bar UI is nice, but in practice it's quite cumbersome to use. It's difficult to distinguish what preset is what based on the preview image (I often have to right click just to see the name), and you just can't see enough of them on the bottom bar.

What I would really love is a simple dropdown menu where you can see your presets listed by their name. This can be in addition to the bottom bar for presets, as that would probably still work better on iPads. But another category in the exposure editor sidebar where you can select presets would make a world of difference, and doesn't seem to be a significant amount of work. Even better would be some kind of folder structure for the dropdown list, but honestly a list works fine in lightroom.

Or at least list the name of the preset in the box.
