Great for pro photographers

Being able to batch process IPTC templates across RAW files is really important to me. This works really well at doing that and deals with other formats (TIFF and JPEG) too. Initially, it did not include all the IPTC fields on every format, nor did it work properly with RAF files, however, Andrès was very responsive when contacted fixing the first issue in a couple of days, and the RAF issue within a week. I would normally use Bridge on my Mac for this, but this app enables me to work on my iPad when travelling or uploading news pictures. Even possible on the phone too. It seems to stutter a bit every 30 pictures on a batch edit (presumably a buffering issue), so be patient. I don’t know of any other app which allows the importing and application of IPTC templates, so, currently, unique. Well worth it.

Doesn't work properly

cant save after editing the location of the images. wasting time and money.

Response from developer

Sorry to hear you had trouble editing the location of your photos. I would like to help you with this issue, but I would need some more information. Could you send me an email to metadataeditor_support@andrespiza.com?

Nur für Apples Foto-App

Für mich vollkommen unbrauchbar, weil man keinen Zugriff auf Ordner und Volumes hat. Nur wer so unbedarft ist, die Verwaltung seiner Fotos Apple zu überlassen und die bordeigene Foto-Mediathek nutzt, kann das einsetzen. Da man zudem ein Abo abschließen muss, ist das witzlos.

Response from developer

Die App unterstützt das Bearbeiten von Fotos sowohl aus der Fotos-App als auch aus der Dateien-App. Du kannst zwischen beiden wechseln, indem du auf dem Hauptbildschirm oben auf die entsprechende Schaltfläche tippst. Wenn du das Raster deiner Fotos siehst, sollte dort „Dateien bearbeiten“ stehen. Wenn du weitere Hilfe benötigst oder mehr Zeit zum Testen der App brauchst, sende mir bitte eine E-Mail an metadataeditor_support@andrespiza.com.

Does not make clear it is a paid monthly or annual app

As above.. I deleted it now need to figure out how to remove it from purchases. The cost info only showed up after installation.

Crashes on Bulk Edit

Signed up for the Essential plan, but then whenever I try to bulk edit the date/time, the app crashes.

BAD

The app failed to accomplish what I wanted and even deduct money during the test period

Not intuitive

The app is difficult to figure out. Crashed when used after picking several files to edit.

Response from developer

I’m sorry you’ve had this issue. To help me fix the crash and make the app easier to use, could you please send me an email at metadataeditor_support@andrespiza.com with the details? Your feedback makes a big difference, and I really want to fix the crash and improve the parts of the app that may be confusing.

New update erased IPTC templates

Love the new features, but there seems to be two problems.

1. All my IPTC templates are gone. And, when I go to create a new one, it doesn’t save the info, it’s blank

2. The new files feature isn’t working. When I go to files and hit the plus, I can search my files app, but when I select an image it just brings me back to the empty files page.

Response from developer

First, thank you for your kind words, and I’m sorry you encountered some bugs. I was able to identify a problem with IPTC Templates, where they always appeared empty when editing. The issue was that the IPTC Editor was not displaying the content of the template. This has now been fixed, and I’ve sent an update to Apple, which should be available soon. Regarding the bug when editing files, I haven’t been able to reproduce the problem. Could you kindly send me an email through the app? When you do so, a file will be attached to the email containing information about what the app is doing internally, which can help me pinpoint the issue. To do this, open Metadata Editor > tap the settings button (top-left) > tap “Send feedback & Get help.” Please include a short message in the email so I know it’s from you. Thank you again!

Tertible

Not intuitive. And keeps asking you to upgrade to pro version for 6.99

Très bonne appli

Simple et efficace pour modifier les IPTC à l’unité ou par lot. Création et modification de modèles possible. Utilisable avec l’appli PHOTO de Apple.

Response from developer

Merci pour vos gentils mots ! La nouvelle mise à jour, version 3.0, prend désormais également en charge l’édition de photos dans l’application Fichiers d’Apple.

Just charge for it on the app store

Bait and switch. Worthless.

8.5/10

I love how simple to use the app is for editing meta data on photos! Not to mention the extra options like ‘Delete Original after Copy’ to prevent the Original Meta Data from being visible to the iOS photos app still and being able to edit photos metadata in batches is a GOD SEND of a feature!

What’s preventing me from rating this app 10/10 is…what’s stopping you from adding the ability to save copies in HEIF/HEVC format? Does iOS force copies produced to get saved in JPEG regardless of the two format options chosen; [HEIF/HEVC] High Efficiency OR [JPEG/H.264] Most Compatible in the camera settings on the settings app?

Thank you again for this amazingly simple and easy to use editing app! ^^

Bilder werden verändert!

Wenn ich nur den Standort editiere wird gleich das ganze Bild verändert, manch Bilder werden dunkler oder kontrastärmer, auf jeden Fall verschlechtert - der Speicherplatz halbiert sich, somit wird der Inhalt reduziert, obwohl ich in den Optionen eingestellt habe, dass keine Datenreduktion erfolgen soll. Das ist ein absolutes NoGo - App gleich wieder gelöscht (schon nach 3 Tagen Testphase werden 9,99 EUR abgebucht :-((

Response from developer

Es tut mir leid zu hören, dass du Probleme hattest und die App nicht deinen Erwartungen entsprochen hat. Aufgrund von Einschränkungen seitens Apple müssen Drittanbieter-Apps bearbeitete Bilder beim Speichern in der Fotomediathek im JPEG-Format sichern. Dies führt in der Regel nicht zu sichtbaren Veränderungen, allerdings kann sich die Dateigröße ändern, da JPEG ein komprimiertes Format ist. Falls dir etwas berechnet wurde, kannst du bei Apple eine Rückerstattung beantragen. Du kannst mir eine E-Mail an metadataeditor_support@andrespiza.com senden, und ich schicke dir gerne einen Link zur Apple-Website mit Anweisungen, wie du eine Rückerstattung beantragen kannst.

Wish I could fully test

… but, the app is pretty much useless without a subscription. I realize the is a ‘trial period’; but, I been burned too much when I’ve cancelled a subscription ahead of time and got charged anyway. I just don’t take chances anymore in the app store.

More templates

I like the app and everything it does. Why not add the ability to set metadata templates also not just IPTC? I would love to save the same data to be reusable for make and model.

Response from developer

Well, until now nobody had asked for it and I did not think of doing it, but I can see how it makes sense to include some regular metadata fields too like Make and Model. I will work on this.

Plantage en mode par lot

Application, inutile puisqu’en traitement par lot l’application se plante et tout est perdu.

Response from developer

L’édition par lot peut planter si vous sélectionnez trop de photos à la fois. Selon l’appareil et l’espace disponible, cette limite peut varier. Gardez à l’esprit que si vous essayez d’éditer un très grand nombre de photos, elles ne peuvent pas toutes être téléchargées en une seule fois sur votre appareil, ce qui pourrait entraîner l’échec de l’édition. Veuillez réessayer avec un lot plus petit d’images. Si vous rencontrez toujours des problèmes, n’hésitez pas à me contacter à l’adresse suivante : metadataeditor_support@andrespiza.com.

Scam

Can't do a single thing without sending them money.
