GeoTagr App Recensioni

Crea un file di geotag (in gpx) mentre si fanno le foto. Tornati a casa in base allora dello scatto, anche con software gratuiti come GPSPhotoLinker è poi possibile assegnare automaticamente alle foto la precisa localizzazione di dove sono state scattate. Il programma funziona correttamente; ovviamente lapplicazione deve essere lasciata aperta per il tutto il tempo in cui si fanno le foto. Con una carica completa di batteria difficilmente si riesce a fare più di 4 ore.

Attenzione pero a sincronizzare bene data e ora di iPhone e macchina fotografica.

Applicazione eccellente per funzionalità e semplicità. Anche lassistenza tecnica è molto reattiva: non riuscivo ad acquisire il file in Aperture ed hanno risposto alla mail in meno di mezzora.

Lo uso con Lightroom e funziona veramente bene

Ho utilizzato questa applicazione sia con una Sony RX100 II che con una Sony A6000, entrambe senza modulo GPS. Questa app sopperisce molto bene a tale mancanza… devo solo ricordarmi di attivarla prima di iniziare a scattare le foto. Di solito scatto le foto in formato RAW, poi importo le informazioni registrate da GeoTagr in Apple Aperture/iPhoto o in Adobe Lightroom. La procedura è veramente molto semplice! Limpatto sulla durata della batteria è veramente limitato. Io preferisco una lettura della posizione ogni 5 minuti.

The app tagged my photos as having a zero meter accuracy when in fact they plotted about 200 meters off of the trail I was hiking. Zero in this case presumably means unknown, but give the impression of higher accuracy than the points were.

A great app that does exactly what it promises, and does it well. I’ve been using GeoTagr for years now, after hunting high and low for an app that could add my location to photos shot on my DSLR - which still frustratingly often come without GPS tagging built in. (Or in my case comes with a camera manufacturer’s app which never seems to keep its connection to the camera so is pretty useless). When I’m out and about, I keep the app running in the background and then use the app to tag my photos once I get home. It really is that simple, and means I can see exactly where I took the photo on the map view within Photos, while memories etc. are properly collated too. Recording your GPS location constantly means your battery can take a hit, but the app includes a battery time remaining feature, and I just carry a battery pack with me. Chris the developer is really great at replying to support queries too. If you’re looking for an app that records your location then tags your photos reliably and without hassle, you’ve found it!

Will not tag on the background. After about 30~60 mins it will turn off.

This works well and could do all features as they are advertised. It is convenient to upload all gps log to dropbox and could have geotag for photos from camera without gps. This is wonderful app for geo logging and geo tagging at the same time.

I purchased this app to GeoTag photos on my iPad that were taken with a camera and imported. Won’t recognize any of my pictures. Description of this app is misleading. Steer clear.

I have no idea why this app has a 2.6 rating at time of writing this review. This app should be 5 Star all the way. Maybe users are not reading instructions properly? Reading all the comments seems like it. This is the only app that allows you to record tracks and tag photos on your phone. No need to upload to a website or extract tack etc. All in one place. Master of geotaging. Really happy customer!

UPDATE: After two years, I still love this app and use it regularly. I've recently begun using a second body on occasion, and the tags can be applied to images from both--another advantage over a dedicated DSLR GPS attachment! The developer is a really great guy, who responds quickly to bug reports and future requests. He also follows up to let you know when a version that fixes your bug has been released on the App Store. One thing I will add, I've stopped using the interval updates and now I always use continuous updates. With interval updates, I am more likely to get random points in my track that are off by 1/4 mile or so. I think this is a GPS problem and not the fault of the app because other apps that use the GPS behave similarly when tracking is first turned on. With continuous tracking, this is not an issue (although the GPS can sometimes make errors inside or near buildings or under trees). My original review follows: Awesome! A $5 app that replaces a $200 GPS unit for a DSLR! It takes about 2 minutes to tag a days worth of photos. I shoot RAW, so I love that it creates XML "sidecar" files with the location information and it doesn't modify the RAW files. Then when I import the photos into LightRoom, LightRoom automatically reads the locations and can plot them on its map. I've seen reviews that complain about the GPS performance, but that's an iPhone limitation and not the fault of the app. Anywhere the iPhone's GPS has difficulty (e.g. indoors), the app will too. Like all GPS apps, it uses a lot of battery. You can save battery by setting it to only update every 3, 5, or 10 minutes instead of continuously. I wish there was an interval between continuous and 3 minutes, like 1 minute, which I think would be better for walking.

Does not recognize location permission. Won't begin recording tracks

Used to be great but latest update fails to recognize when location services are enabled. Continues to prompt even when location service is enabled. Very unhappy today.

Used to work great but must have been an update because now it keeps asking for permission to access location and it is marked to give permission while using in privacy settings. It used to say use location always but now just while in use. Emailed but says answer within 48 hours. Doesn't do me any good when I need it now. Why did you break a working product? Will look for another app.

I use it with Lightroom to tag photos and it works like a charm. Great for tagging photos across cameras. Not a huge impact on battery life. Love the Dropbox integration. Hooray for this great app.

GeoTagr has never let me down, even when other apps have. When tracking absolutely, positively has to work, I use GeoTagr. It’s perfect for photography, as well as tracking hikes and road trips. It estimates remaining battery, uploads tracks to Dropbox, and offers a clock readout for synchronizing my camera. Couldn't ask for more.

I am a big fan of the simplicity and reliability of this app. I use it with my Sony NEX when traveling and find it a reliable way to add location information to the photos. Additionally, location data can be easily exported to other apps in multiple formats.

We used a DSLR camera on our vacation that doesn't have GPS. I used this app to log our locations, used the SD card dongle that Apple sells to import the photos, and then geotagged them. It worked perfectly!

Works well, easy to transfer photos from my DSLR to my iPhone using an SD card adapter. This app quickly Geotags my photos and up to the cloud and social media they go! Convenient workflow that works without a laptop. Good for use in the field or a long car trip.

It seems to generally work ok, though the interface and workflow could be nicer and more intuitive. Once you get the hang of it, it is functional, however. I noticed today that my battery had been killed quite fast through the morning. I had stopped a track last night via the watch app, and the phone app did not show a track being logged. None the less, the iOS battery settings page showed that GeoTagr had been sucking down battery. May be a bug.

captures the track, and uploads to dropbox... and I had a issue getting LightRoom to show the GPS. The support team worked hard to diagnose things for me, and I found that you need to SYNCHRONIZE the lightroom folder in Lightroom. without that, the GPS didn't show. synching solved the problem.

This app is very easy to use but has just the right level of customization available. I like the configurable update intervals when creating tracks, so I can control battery usage. Exporting tracks and geotagging photos on other devices (even a Mac) could not be simpler. Great stuff!

I love the improved support of Moves data, and quick feedback from the developer. I'm using this all the time now.

Nothing has changed my opinion of this useful app. My only fear is that the developer might one day not get enough support to keep this app up to date. I would gladly pay for it on a yearly basis. One feature i just learned from the developer is that tracks can be saved as .gpx files -- I often use the app to keep track of where i've been, so this new-to-me gpx feature will make things even better! I picked this app because of all the apps I checked out it had the least amount of rigmarole to create and manage tracks. Even if you don't use it to tag your photos, the little map it creates and then can be turned into a JPEG is a nice history of any trip you take. Note: the time is stored in phone time, not some sort of timestamp. As you cross time zones, you may find that your phone changes the time but your camera does not. Since the time set up on my camera is tedious, I found it just as easy to go into the phone settings and set time to match camera time. this is a klooge no matter how you handle it, but the app has no choice, given the limited ability of most cameras to create a timestamp.

Works as advertised and their customer support is great.

정말 원했던 기능이에요. iOS10에서도 사진 GeoTagr 동작 완벽합니다. 위젯에서는 조금 문제가 있네요.

Klunky interface not optimized for iPhone 6. Why can't I just share a track from Gaia GPS app? Why do I need to use this app's inferior tracking capability? Very limited Dropbox support (why do tracks need to be in only one folder?). Why does app not find photos in my library that have no geotag when I know which these are? Just not worth the bother of all of the restrictions. I'll just wait until I get back to my Mac and keep using PhotoLinker.

This is one of my most valuable apps on the iPad and iPhone. The new update brings the long expected watch app, which looks and works very good. What I would like to see in the next update is a complication and a glance for quick access. Following my overall review for the app: It is great! Simple 'apple-like' design. Very functional as well! You can export a gpx via various ways (email, dropbox...) or you can tag your photos directly if you have a mac. Just make a folder on the desktop, put the pictures inside, include the folder in the os x system preferences' sharing tab and then just go to the app and choose the mac shared folder option! It then automatically adds the location data to the photos, after which they are ready to be imported into aperture/lightroom and there they are displayed on the map. You also have an option to tag photos on ipad. Imagine this: you take pics and record your track with your iphone, you import the pics into your ipad with the camera connection kit, then you just start the app on both devices and push the button! It is that simple to add location to your photos! And you pay just 5$ for the app, not 500$ for the canon's/nikon's gps device... Great e-mail support as well! The developer is very nice, responds quickly and helps every time! If you want a new feature, you can request it!

To update my earlier comment: the latest app update which allows option to automatically delete the original photos is a god-sent! Used to have to delete them manually, and going through and selecting some 200+ photos to do this was quite a pain. But no more! Fantastic new feature! ----------- Ever come back from holiday to find that you have to merge photos from different devices from different family members? Now, import them all and geotag them! Very easy to use and does exactly what it says. Don't leave home without it!

I love this app and have used it often while traveling (especially internationally). It's great to see it gain support for the Apple Watch too. Pausing a track or adding a location manually without having to pull out my phone while shooting is a great way to make it even more convenient to use. The watch app has large buttons that are easy to tap. It loaded pretty quickly too!

does not work well..

GeoTagr is a great app. It works well and integrates with lightroom seamlessly.

This was the only geotagging app I found that would add the metadata on my phone, not requiring a desktop app. It works great with the photos transferred to my phone via Eyefi, so all of my photos are nicely tagged.

I’ve been longing to have geo tagged data appended to my DSLR photos. With Apple’s Photos product nearing release, being able to look at my photos by location shouldn’t be limited to images shot only on my iPhone. The hardware that does this for SLR’s costs hundreds of dollars, but this app gets it done for a fraction of the price and uses the GPS I carry with me always, my iPhone. The interface is simple, looks great on iOS 7 and above and works incredibly, simply, well. The developer also responds to customer e-mails swiftly. I’ve tried out alternatives for geo-tagging my DSLR photos and GeoTagr works best, by far, for my workflow.

I've used this app several times to geotag my trip photos. It has a good level of flexibility to avoid burning through your battery. Very easy to geotag a large number of photos.

My buddy and I go on rambling trips through the back country of Tennessee and Alabama looking for old barns and other buildings to take images of. We have found that GeoRagR app is the best geotag app for the IPhone. The offnet GPS feature is worth the cost. As to battery life, yes it will eat up your battery, But e have car chargers that takes care of that. Geotagr is very accurate and the trac is easy to import into Lightroom and apply to your images. Highly recommend

Field tested on trip to Hawaii with DSLR. Captured geotags on iPhone, loaded photos to iPad. Easy to sync over Wi-Fi. Surprisingly low battery drain on GPS. Perfect for vacation photography.

I geotag all my photos taken with a regular camera, and this app makes it easy. I simply record my "track" in the background while taking photos, export the track log as a GPX file to my computer when I get home, then use Adobe Lightroom (which is where I edit my photos) to add the geotagging info to my photos. This is awesome when I want to revisit a place where I took pictures, beause I can see exactly where the photo was taken.

Then get it ....... it just works correctky

App works well. It does exactly what I want it to do, assign gps coordinates to photos based on their time stamps relative to a gps track. Graphics and interface, however, are a bit clumsy and detract from the experience considerably. If the UI can be improved this will be a great app.

I have used several geotagging methods over the last five years, including a dedicated geotagging hardware and another app. GeoTagr is definitely the best. It is always with me on my iPhone, it really conserves battery, I have a selection of ways to access the data, and it doesn't require any extra software to process the data. I can leave it running on my phone for a long trip (at least 8 hours) without worrying about running down the battery. When I'm finished an back at my computer, I upload to DropBox, access the file with Lightroom and the job is finished. I do a lot of travel photography and find that having a photo geotagged is a tremendous help when I'm home and putting a slide show together. I wouldn't go on a trip without GeoTager.

I tried almost a dozen tracking/tagging apps before finally settling on this great product. I went backpacking through Europe and wanted a way to geotag my photos through an iPad instead of lugging a computer around. This was one of the only solutions that could actually apply GPS coordinates in the app itself. It worked almost flawlessly for almost 1000 different shots. It’s universal, so I would track using my phone, take photos with the DSLR, and tag/edit photos with the iPad through an SD adapter. Pros: -Beautiful design that’s easy to use -Actually APPLY coordinates to photos in app! -Universal for iPad and iPhone -Great tracking using GPS -Lots of options and features, like my favorite: automatically share tracking sessions between iPhone and iPad through wifi/bluetooth! Open the app on both devices, they find each other, and automatically share tracks! Cons: -The tracking was not effective using phone tower triangulation, but perfect using the more battery-hungry GPS. I only had 5 “location pins” on phone tower mode, but 700 on GPS -When applying GPS info to pictures, it forgot my rotation metadata. Easily fixed in iPhoto though Things to know: Any GPS tracking app will use lots of battery. I always brought a backup battery, which is almost required for all day tracks. Pause sessions to save some power. Also, I found this app to be as battery efficient as anyone else. Thanks for making this app developers! It was a HUGE help.

UPDATE: after using this app for a few days now, my two complaints are that I can't add tagged photos to both the camera roll and an *existing* album (minor), and that tagging and saving to the camera roll seems to destroy the portrait orientation of photos (I have to go a rotate all photos back into portrait mode after they've been tagged) I've tried using a number of other apps to geotag my photos from DSLR, but haven't really come across any that worked until now. Conceptually, PlaceTagger was exactly what I was looking for, except it doesn't work, at all. Tested this out this morning and I'm finally able to geotag my imported photos *before* they hit Photo Stream (by putting my iPad into airplane mode) which means that all my tote connected devices get the properly tagged pics. Perfection!

Works like it says. Allows me to feorag no matter what camera i use. I like the fact that in my Mac it will tag pictures in a folder. Good feature. Really glad they made it. Can wait to see if u can make it run in the background for ios4.

I love this app for geotagging photos from my slr. If you want more precise locations than "manhattan," this app is for you. It makes it quick and easy.

Really like tagging all my DSLR photos so I never have to wonder where I took a photo at

Not only do I think this app is really terrific, I got great swift and clear support when I was stuck initially trying to pair my camera with my iMac!

I had been considering buying a $100 device and/or eyefi SD card for about the same, when I came across this app. I plan on using this app to track my movement around Europe and will later sync the geotags with all my photos taken with a non-GPS enabled DSLR. I have tested it locally (removed my SIM card to replicate no service), and it was a breeze. Also, huge respect and kudos to the developer of the app. He is very friendly and quick to respond with emails (and even tweets). Previous updates had a bug with losing the track due to an iOS limitation, but I can confirm it has been resolved and fixed! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I haven't tried it yet, but the latest update should fix the issue I describe below. I've changed my review to 4 stars till I test it. The app is amazing when it is working and I have no reason to doubt the developer. Not sure if it happened with the latest update or iOS 6, but this app has become completely unreliable. It will start recording and then just decide to stop randomly while the phone is locked. So you get back after a long trek only to find out it tracked the first half mile then decided to stop. It used to work amazingly well, but now it's not worth running. Please fix.

This is a great app! Does just what it says and more….The developer is offers incredible support and gets back to you to answer any and all questions.

I'm not one to write reviews, but I really like this app. It's really easy to use, but what I like best is how you can use the track to geotag the photos. The app provides many different ways for you to accomplish this task, so you just need to pick the one that works best for your workflow. There are two that I use: I'll use the iPhone to record my hike (I like to photograph during my hikes), but I'll actually shoot with a digital camera, not the iPhone. If I'm just shooting JPGs, I'll upload them into iPhoto when I get home so that they go to my photo stream. Then I just open up this app on my iPad and it loads my photo stream and automatically geotags the photos I just took. Couldn't be easier. The other way I use it is when I'm shooting raw (which is most of the time). You start out the same way, but when you're all done, you instruct GeoTagr to email you the GPX file. Once you have that, you can import the photos and the GPX file into Aperture (or Lightroom) and sync the GPX data into the raw metadata and voila, you're photos are geotagged. Lastly, the support is great. I've only had one issue (and it was my fault), but the developer replied within minutes (on a Sunday no less). I'd buy this app again in a heartbeat.

Useful app, works well. Good support. I couldn't find how to manually enter a location manually, so I emailed the developer on a Saturday and he replied on Sunday explaining how to do it. Not many developers would reply to support email over a weekend.

Does what it says and well. Recommend an auxiliary power source if your going to be shooting all day with GPS on though.
