Bad app

Just tried what a rip off!

Worthless, and want a credit!!

This is not an app; it's a Crapp!
I should have listened the other reviewers, but I wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt.
I tried with a bunch of photos I had in my library, and the app keeps saying
"This picture does not contain GPS information"

So I took a photo, and tried it right away, and same thing.

We should be reimbursed. What a sleazy crap!

Does not work!

I tested both pics from my phone as well as ones that were sent to me. It said all pictures did not contain GPS information, none of them.

Bad app

Out of 100 photos reviewed from my phone and someone else's phone none show a GPS location pretty funny sense my GPS location service is turned on on my phone. Deleted hope for a refund. Don't waste your money like I did!
