## What is PhotoMapper?

PhotoMapper: GPS EXIF Editor is an essential app for anyone who wants to keep their iOS Photo library organized by the places where photos were taken. All photographers who store photos in their iOS Photos library and use geo-tags for systematization could be upset with lost geo-tag information due to using DSLRs or getting these photos from friends. Just add this info with our app and keep your geo-tag system in a consistent state.

PhotoMapper: GPS EXIF Editor is also useful for people who want to protect their personal privacy. When you share your photos on social networks or send them via email, the geo-location information – where the photo was taken – is shared as well. If you are concerned about your personal privacy and would like to share photos without any mark of location in EXIF metadata, PhotoMapper can remove it.


**FEATURES:**

   •	Location info of your photos will always be correct and never missed
Easily add or modify location info of photos in your iOS Photo library by simply placing a pin on the map. Never miss this info even if you use a DSLR or for any other reason.

   •	Prepare photos for social sharing with clear location info -
Keep the original photo for yourself and create a copy without any mark of the GPS location info (Geotagging) in EXIF metadata for sharing, reinforcing your privacy.

   •	Batch photo editing 
Edit multiple photos in a few clicks, the fast and easy way. Forget about single selection.

   •	Find all photo with missed location info
Easily find all photos without location in one click.

   •	Copy location info from one photo to another
Long press in the gallery to open a large preview of the selected photo and use the “Copy Location” action. Now you can copy the location to as many other photos as you wish.


**HOW TO ADD OR MODIFY LOCATION INFO:**
This action adds a new location, which will be available in the iOS Photo library.

   1.	Select one or multiple photos
   2.	Click “Edit location”
   3.	Set the desired location by placing a pin on the map
   4.	Confirm the action.


**HOW TO REMOVE LOCATION INFO:**
This action keeps the original photo and creates a duplicate copy without GPS location info, which you can share. The EXIF metadata will be clean in this case. There is no location info of this photo in any app.

   1.	Select one or multiple photos on the first screen.
   2.	Click “Duplicate photo without location.”
   3.	Confirm the action.

### 1/5 — 沒用

*2025-06-11, version 4.2.0*

沒用

### 3/5 — 这和系统照片自带的功能有区别吗？

*2024-09-22, version 4.0.1*

这和系统照片自带的功能有区别吗？

### 1/5 — Fuyez cette appli

*2024-08-28, version 4.0.1*

Abonnements beaucoup trop chers selon moi, juste pour écrire des meta données dans des photos.
Au moment où j’écris, l’App Store mentionne 2 achats intégrés pour moins de 3 €, tarifs inférieurs au moins cher des abonnements ! Bizarre.
J’avais déjà acheté cette application qui ne fonctionne plus, obligé de s’abonner, car les achats lifetime ne sont pas accessibles depuis l’appli.
J’ai tenté d’écrire au développeur, l’adresse fournie dans l’appli n’est pas valide
Il y a une site de suivi de bug, mais l’enregistrement le plus récent date de 2020 …
Y a t’il quelqu’un à l’autre bout ? Je ne supporte pas ces logiciels « pompes à fric », où aucun support n’est joignable
J’utilisais peu cette appli au bénéfice de logiciels libres sur mon ordinateur. Meilleure ergonomie que sur iOS et en plus gratuits. Explorez cette voie.

### 1/5 — Use experience worse in Version 4

*2024-06-30, version 4.0.0*

Adding location data to a photo now requires significantly more steps than before. This no longer works for me.

### 1/5 — Publicidad engañosa.

*2023-06-13, version 3.1.5*

Esta aplicación lo que hace es cambiar la geolocalización de las fotos del dispositivo. No simula una ubicación GPS diferente a la que uno está en tiempo real.

### 1/5 — broken and inconvenient - not good but has potential

*2023-05-31*

the photos i added individual locations for did not stick but instead all changed to the location of the last image i created a location for. waste of time. also the “without gps” option should have the option to be automatically selected when tapping edit location, or maybe available on the first screen. and there needs to be a sort option that sticks so the newest photos are at the top. too many steps to tap through when working fast. has potential but is currently trash.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2022-12-12*

Totally useless did not do anything waste of money please do not buy this piece of crap

### 1/5 — Ignores pins and puts own addressees, doesn’t find Apple Maps locations

*2022-11-22*

Put in address, it couldn’t find it, despite having Apple Maps opened side by side showing the location.
subscription model is stupid.

### 1/5 — Insanely Overpriced  Subscription App

*2022-10-02, version 3.1.5*

$7.00 a week!!!   That is insane for an occasional use utility app.   

If it actually works I might drop $5 one time purchase on a utility app, but to offer this as a subscription is just to rip off unaware shoppers. 

Beware of this developer. 

* pricing policy forwarded to Apple for investigation

### 4/5 — good

*2022-06-21, version 3.1.5*
