Not anymore. *2021-06-25, version 3.1.2* Was a really good app, but now charging $25 per year?! Not worth it. ### 1/5 — Fehlerhafte Angaben für inApp Käufe *2021-06-15, version 3.1.2* 25€ im Jahr ist nicht gerechtfertigt, sorry! Warum sind die Angaben im AppStore fehlerhaft ? ### 4/5 — Gut für die GPS-Daten-Zuordnung *2021-06-05, version 3.1.1* ..leider mit Abo-Modell. Vorher war es besser… ### 1/5 — Geändertes Geschäftsmodell *2021-05-18, version 3.1* Früher kostenlos, jetzt 24€ pro Jahr? Nein Danke ### 1/5 — Greedy Developer! 💰 *2021-05-16, version 3.1* I have used this app for years and have had no complaints. It’s worked perfect, now to use “most” features you have to pay $24.99 a year. Yeah right what a rip off. I saw the developers response to another complaint and they stated there are a lot of features still free, um NO WRONG. You can’t search for a location anymore and you can’t see the photos without any geo location the two most important features. Pretty much the only thing you can do for free is edit the photo for the location you are currently at. I’m deleting, went from 5 stars to 0 if possible. Once again another great app ruined by greed. ### 1/5 — Früher war alles frei, jetzt 24€ p.a, Wucher *2021-05-15, version 3.1* Früher war die App frei zu nutzen. Jetzt kassiert man mit 24€ pro Jahr ab. ### 1/5 — Too Expensive 💰 💰 💰😐 *2021-05-13, version 3.1* The latest “Update” removed features and now the developer wants $24.99 to edit Exif information. Wayyyyy too much to simply edit Exif information on photos. ### 1/5 — Nueva política de precio *2021-05-12, version 3.1* Antes funcionaba perfectamente, ahora el desarrollador pide dos euros al mes por lo mismo que teníamos con la compra inicial (pago único de dos euros). Aunque está bastante bien, con algunas carencias, en ningún caso merece la pena pagar una suscripción por ella. ### 4/5 — Data *2021-05-11, version 3.0.5* In my iPad Air4 the added position data can be recognized in app Apple Maps , ACDSee but not in Google photos. ### 4/5 — Is ok *2021-03-25, version 3.0.2* It works ok but i dont know how to use it ### 1/5 — Garbage *2021-03-22, version 3.0.1* Doesn’t do anything ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — 沒用 *2025-06-11, version 4.2.0* 沒用 ### 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 ### 1/5 — Funktionseinschränkung *2021-07-26, version 3.1.2* Früher verfügbare Funktionen jetzt nur noch mit Abo… nein danke. App gelöscht. ### 1/5 — Was great, now it’s crippled *2021-07-05* What made this app great is now behind a yearly subscription. Bulk edit and filter by photo without GPS was the sole reason to use this. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — O melhor *2022-04-21, version 3.1.3* O melhor aplicativo para editar/deletar/colocar local nas fotos. Muito bom mesmo. Recomendo. ### 5/5 — Very useful app! Thumbs up! *2021-08-22* I love photography, so my gallery contains just thousands of photos. PhotoMapper is the only app in the AppStore that can quickly process such volumes of data, no competitor can do that. This is the simplest and most useful app that allows you to edit a batch of many photos from the gallery in just a couple of clicks. There is no easier way to change the location of your photos. You can choose a new location directly on the map, or use the search to select the location you need. Then press one button and that's it, magic! I was very surprised that the app can filter out photos that have no location. I very often download photos from the web or from instant messengers that do not contain information about photo location. Then such a photo is difficult to find in your photo library. But, PhotoMapper with just one switch to the filter will help you find such photos on your phone. This is very cool! Now I don’t spend hours to find such photos in my endless photo feed. I tried so many apps that I didn't like until my friend recommended PhotoMapper to me. From now on, I recommend this app to all my friends who need to change or delete the location of photos on their phone. Thank you very much to the developer for his work and the time he spent. This app is definitely worth its money, since there are absolutely no analogues on the market. Thumbs up! ### 5/5 — Tolle, praktische App *2021-05-14, version 3.1* Funktioniert super um größere Mengen Fotos mit GPS zu taggen ### 5/5 — Good app! Thanks! *2021-05-02* It’s definitely the app that I looked for. Thanks for the developer! **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! I appreciate you words! I do my best to make PhotoMapper better. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Cool app! *2021-03-24* I wanted my location to stay at the skatepark when I’m there but I wanting to go somewhere else without my mom knowing, so I thought I just have to upload pics of the skatepark I go to, but I got into a confusion lol. Overall tho app is super chill and amazing, pretty accurate as far as I could tell. I’ll definitely use it up again sometime for the right purposes without confusion. 😂🤝 **Developer response:** 👍🤝 Glad that PhotoMapper works for you. Thank you for your feedback! It’s really important for me. ### 5/5 — How do you use this for Pokémon go *2021-03-01* Hi developer I downloaded this for Pokémon go and I don’t know how to use it so can you tell me how to use this app for Pokémon go **Developer response:** Hi! The app does exactly what described in the description. Unfortunately, it wasn’t suppose to work with Pokémon Go. ### 5/5 — Funciona *2021-02-11, version 3.0* Hace lo que dice..... y lo hace bien. ### 5/5 — Simple, Clear and nearly perfect Exif editor *2021-01-06* The UI is just simple and clear and I love it There’s really several things I would say need improvement. —> when editing the exif, it shows my current location instead of photo’s old location. It might be better to show the photo’s old location. —> When editing multiple photos, If it could shows all the locations those photos have and let users to choose from. This could be helpful for me. Anyway, fantastic app and enjoyed it. Thanks for the workings. **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! Glad you like PhotoMapper! You have a very good points for improvement I will definitely put them in my todos, thanks! ### 5/5 — Einfacher geht es nicht! Klasse App *2020-08-20, version 2.7.2* Wie einfach es sein kann Fotos nachträglich mit Geodaten zu versehen, wird mit dieser App eindrucksvoll bewiesen! Besten Dank an den Entwickler! 👍 ### 5/5 — Easy to use - geo tagging *2020-07-02, version 2.7.2* Great and simple tool! Love it, geotag uploaded pics!
