Your photo, timestamped the moment you shoot it. Date, time, address, and GPS coordinates are burned directly into your photo at full resolution β€” no quality loss, no separate editing step needed. β–  Who it's for - Field workers, inspectors, and construction crews who need proof-of-work photos - Delivery drivers and technicians documenting job completion - Sales reps, real estate agents, and surveyors capturing site visit records - Anyone who needs photos that prove when and where they were taken - Parents, travelers, and anyone building date-stamped memory albums β–  Key Features [Automatic Stamp Overlay] The moment you press the shutter, date, time, address, and GPS coordinates are composited onto your full-resolution photo. A live WYSIWYG preview on the camera screen shows exactly how the stamp will look before you shoot. [Site Presets] Register frequently visited site names and switch between them in one tap. No need to re-enter addresses at every location. Free plan supports 1 preset; Pro supports unlimited. [Landscape & All Orientations] Hold your phone in any direction β€” stamps are always rendered upright. Capture wide-angle site overviews and panoramic shots without compromise. [Full Resolution & EXIF Preserved] No compression or resizing. Shooting date, time, and GPS are retained in EXIF metadata, making photos compatible with external reporting and asset management tools. [Retroactive Stamping (Pro)] Apply a timestamp stamp to photos you already have in your library. The original photo is untouched; a new stamped copy is saved separately. [Stamp Customization (Pro)] Adjust stamp position (any corner), size (3 levels), and text color (white / black / yellow) to match the scene. Additional formats include date + address + GPS coordinates, and a custom one-line text field. [No Ads on the Camera Screen] The shooting interface is completely ad-free. Ads appear only in the settings screen and below the post-capture preview β€” never where they can obscure your shot. β–  Free includes (unlimited) - Date & time stamp - Date, time & address stamp - Landscape support (all 4 orientations) - Full-resolution output with EXIF preserved - 1 site preset β–  Pro ($9.99, one-time purchase) - Remove all ads - Additional formats (date + address + GPS / custom text line) - Adjustable stamp position, size, and color - Unlimited site presets - Retroactive stamping for existing photos No subscription. One purchase, permanent access. Restore on a new device via Settings > Restore Purchase. β–  Notes - Location permission is optional. Date-only stamps work without it. Shooting is never blocked due to missing location data. - GPS accuracy depends on your device and environment. Address lookup may fail indoors or without signal; the app falls back to coordinates or date-only automatically. - Photos are saved using add-only library access. Existing photos are never modified or deleted. β–  Privacy Policy https://kureho.app/apps/genba-camera/privacy β–  Support https://kureho.app
