Geotag Photos Pro 2

Have used this for a few years now and really can’t fault it. Normally I use the iPad to tag the locations but have recently found myself loading images direct from my SLR into my phone. To be able to geotag those images in the phone would be a killer feature. Can’t always have laptop or iPad with me. Great work though - a rare decent app!

I have been using Geotag Photos for a couple of years. It is a great app. Simple to use and geotags all of your digital images in a flash. All you have to remember is to turn on the app, synchronize the time on the camera with your phone. And start tracking. Power consumption on your phone is minimal. Highly recommend this software to anyone that has a digital camera that does not have an inbuilt GPS

Used this as a trial yesterday, before paying to upgrade. I needed something to get GPS/Location data into my photos, as I didn't want to pay around $200 for physical GPS Unit which isn't an essential for a hobby. Easy set up, tapped "Log Now" when I took photos (not sure if I really needed to or not). Today, I downloaded the Desktop version & other than a minor hiccup getting the synchronising going (just took a quick read of the User Guide), all worked very efficiently. I think for an App, the cost of $AU17.99 for upgrading to be able to continue using it is quite high, but the Desktop version, which is free (and simple to use) makes up for that. One thing that seems not quite right, is upon first read before downloading, is that the trial is three trips, but after using it yesterday and opening it today, and further reading, it appears that the trial is three days, not three trips. Maybe if I didn't open the App today, I would still have two opportunities to use as a trial. I haven't done a second trip & only have one more left before needing to upgrade to continue using. Previous reviews which were posted over a year before mine & some were negative. The App has been updated a few months ago and runs great. Overall, before upgrading, I would highly recommend this App. Well done to the Developers 👍

I was very disapointed - it's tracking function is highly inacurate even at low intervals like 1 min and 10m distance it tracks only a point when it feels like it. The generated gpx files show the completly inacurate route taken which is useless for the intended purpose of tagging pictures. Of 50 pictures taken only 2 could be matched ... I do a lot of macro flower photography so don't move very much but even when taking a bus of 15 minutes I? get only tywo points even when set to log every minute.

Wasted my money buying this. Sometimes it logs a good number of points, other times it might log only 2 making the whole exercise pointless. Paying a premium for this doesn't mean better performance. Buy something else.

Love the new app.

How do they justify this when the only changes over version 1 are a couple extra cloud sync options and some inconsequential UI changes?

This app is brilliant for locating photos taken on my high end DSLR. It works well with Lightroom. The 2 minute logging interval works really well. It's just important to synchronise the time on the camera.

I’ve been using it flawlessly, for almost two years. I needed a solution to geotag my photos, after being frustrated with the pairing drops with my camera’s app. Geotag Photos app uploads the tracks automatically to my defined iCloud and Dropbox. I then copy the .gpx file to my Mac and use Adobe Lightroom to geotag my photos in the Maps module.

So so so much more worth it than paying money on a GPS attachment you have to lug around. You can record on your phone, open the program on your computer, and just apply it to the folder of photos and everything will be geotagged based on what time it was taken. You can even shift the time if your DSLR time was set wrong. I really love the way trip naming is set up because there will be auto suggestions for the date and location so you don’t have to manually type it, you can just click the buttons that pop up and start logging. How much battery it takes up really depends on how your phone can handle running location tracking in the background, and for me it’s not really a big problem.
