I’ve been looking for an app to help me quickly add tags to multiple photos, edit tags in existing photos, and retrieve photos based on tag search and selection.
This app was almost perfect for me… it has a clean, simple, and easy to use interface, I can select multiple photos using a swipe (instead of having to tap each one), I can tag multiple photos at once, it remembers all the tags I’ve created so I can easily reuse/reapply existing tags to additional photos, and I can search for and browse photos using tags.
What killed this app for me… is that it doesn’t update the metadata inside of the actual photo (and for that matter it also doesn’t read any existing keyword metadata from photos either). And I’m just not interested wasting any time adding tags to photos just to get locked into an app, which may or may not be supported in the future.
I want the metadata to be written in the photo so I can leverage my work using countless other programs on all my devices. If the actual photo’s metadata were updated I could even search for photos using my tags in the native Apple Photos app.
I assume this app was aimed at getting me to buy a $500+ NAS so I can back up photos and won’t lose my work. But unfortunately my brain doesn’t work that way and isn’t willing to make that jump.
I would however be willing to pay $3 to $5… one time for a premium feature.
If this app could read keywords from photos and write the metadata back into the photo… it would be useful enough to be its own stand alone product.
