Every photo, proof of place. myGPS Map Camera stamps the location details that matter straight onto your photos ā ready for site visits, inspections, deliveries, field reports and travel. Pick exactly what each job needs: coordinates, street address, Plus Code, map thumbnail, altitude, compass heading, GPS accuracy, date and time, and optional weather. Six stamp layouts take you from a detailed report panel to a compact ribbon that stays out of the way. The same GPS details are written into each photo's EXIF metadata, so the location travels with the file ā not just in the picture. WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU SAVE ⢠Live preview of the exact stamp burned into the photo ⢠Works in portrait and landscape ⢠Compass heading measured along the camera lens, even when the phone is tilted MAKE IT YOURS ⢠Decimal or degrees-minutes-seconds coordinates ⢠Multiple date, time, time-zone and unit formats (metric or imperial) ⢠Author name, note and hashtag fields on every stamp ⢠Choose which fields appear and in what layout KEEP YOUR PHOTOS ORGANISED ⢠In-app gallery grouped by day ⢠Inspect each photo's location metadata ⢠Share or delete one photo or many at once BUILT FOR EVERY SCREEN ⢠Runs natively on iPhone and iPad ⢠On iPad and other large screens, the gallery shows photos side by side with the one you're viewing, and Settings opens as a sidebar ⢠Layouts adapt to Split View and folding screens PRIVATE BY DESIGN ⢠Your photos, notes and settings stay on your device ⢠No account, no subscription, no ads ⢠Location is used only while the app is open ⢠Saving to Photos is add-only ā the app never reads your existing library Optional extras: weather readings using your own free OpenWeatherMap key, and occasional notifications you can switch off any time in Settings. Camera and location access are required to create a geotagged photo. Photo library access is optional and used only to save a copy to Photos. An internet connection is needed for the street address, map and weather; coordinates, Plus Code and compass work offline.

VideoView is a fast, tap-to-record video camera app for iPhone and iPad. Tap anywhere on screen to start recording, tap again to stop ā the clip immediately opens into an auto-looping playback screen with pinch-zoom/pan review and a scrubbable filmstrip. Intended users: anyone who wants frictionless video capture and instant review without fumbling through a camera app's buttons and modes ā quick reference clips, informal documentation, personal recording where speed matters more than manual controls. It replaces the extra taps and screens of the stock Camera app when all you want is tap, record, review, save. FEATURES Tap-to-record No record button to find, no mode dial to set. Tap anywhere on the full-screen live preview to start recording, tap anywhere to stop. A simple pulsing indicator shows you're rolling ā that's the entire interface. Instant, auto-looping playback The moment you stop recording, your clip opens and starts looping automatically ā no save-then-open delay, no intermediate screen. Pinch, pan, and scrub Pinch to zoom in on the playing video and drag to pan around while zoomed. Tap and drag the filmstrip at the bottom to scrub through the clip frame by frame; playback pauses while you scrub and holds exactly where you left it. Resolution and frame rate control Choose 720p, 1080p, or 4K, and up to 60fps, matched to what your device's camera actually supports. A small on-screen readout during playback confirms the real resolution and frame rate captured in the file ā not just what was requested. One-tap save Save the clip straight into its own "VideoView" album in your Photos library, created automatically the first time you save. Built for speed Prevent-sleep keeps the screen awake while you work. Dismiss-after-saving automatically returns you to the camera once a save completes, so you're ready for the next take immediately. Focus lock and a composition grid are one tap away. PRIVACY VideoView makes no internet connections, collects no data, shows no ads, and has no account or login. It uses only your camera, microphone, and Photos library ā nothing else, and nothing ever leaves your device. For iPhone and iPad. Landscape only.
