[From the Developer] As a news agency photographer myself, I use this app in my daily work. I developed it so that photographers can send images to their agency instantly from an iPhone or iPad instead of a PC. My goal is to help photographers around the world deliver breaking news to the world faster. A professional photo transmission app designed for press photographers and media professionals. Quickly attach IPTC metadata — including captions, photographer credits, and location details — to your photos and send them directly to an FTP server. Also perfect for anyone who needs to add descriptive information to photos and deliver them via FTP. [Before You Start] Photos must be saved in your iOS Photos app before sending. Please transfer your images from your camera to the Photos app in advance. [Key Features] Photos Tab Select photos from your iOS Photos app to send. Tap any photo to open the metadata editor, where you can enter captions, photographer name, location, and more. Use the "Send" button to transmit all photos at once, or send them one by one individually. The status of each photo — sent, pending, or failed — is clearly indicated by the color of the thumbnail border and a status badge. Sent Tab Successfully sent photos are automatically moved here. You can edit the metadata and resend any photo if needed. Sent photos remain in this tab even after closing the app, until you manually delete them. Use the "Share" button in the top right to save photos to your Mac, iCloud, or external storage via AirDrop. Template Tab Save up to 10 IPTC metadata templates for quick reuse. The selected template is automatically applied to newly added photos, eliminating the need to re-enter the same information every time. FTP Tab Register and manage multiple FTP servers, each with a custom name. Use the "Test Connection" button to verify your connection before sending. Log Tab Monitor transmission history and connection status in real time. [Supported Metadata Fields] Caption / Object Name / City / Headline / Keywords / Photographer / Source / Description Writers / Job ID / Special Instructions [Companion App] Works great alongside FTPReceiver, our companion app that lets you receive photos wirelessly from your camera directly to your iPhone. [Subscription] A 7-day free trial is available. After the trial period, a subscription is required to continue using the app. ・Monthly Plan $5.99 ・Annual Plan (Save 17%). $59.99 Subscriptions can be managed or cancelled at any time through your Apple ID settings.
