Exif Metadata for Negative User Reviews
✓ Doesn’t show any of my Shared AlbumsIt lists the ‘local’ albums that are on the iPhone, but doesn’t show any of my Shared Albums. Useless to me, so I’ve deleted it..Version: 2.2
✓ Does not workDoes not work.Version: 2.12
✓ CrapOn iPhone 11 Pro Max… Crashes often. Usually doesn’t work from within the photos app. Truly a piece if garbage..Version: 2.8
✓ Can't select file by folder or dateYou are stuck with selecting the pics organized by type. Not very useful when you want to look at most recent pics or for a specific date or in a specific folder. Paid Pro version doesn't solve this..Version: 2.12
✓ RAW Support?Disappointed in the lack of support to edit Exif data for RAW images. The only reason I wanted this app was to adjust the time and add location for images taken with my Sony a6000 bit this app just throws an error each time I try to save. Otherwise seems nicely designed and intuitive, I just wish I could save my changes..Version: 1.8
✓ Missing features?The app has been fine when I want to change dates and locations, but I can't edit the more detailed info like Orientation, Shutter Speed Value, Subject Area, and other detailed values. Exif Pro doesn't state if you can edit these when you subscribe,and I'm not willing to check it out!😕.Version: 2.8
✓ ***WARNING*****DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS APP** the subscription cancellation process has been altered by removing the cancel subscription option. The ONLY option is to RENEW THE SUBSCRIPTION!! There is NO consumer protection from these types of predatory APPS being posted to APPLE STORE by unscrupulous developers who trap the public in recycling subscription fees by making the unsubscribe process cryptic or as in the case of this APP flagrantly impossible! The only option is to remove your payment information from APPLE STORE which is patently RIDICULOUS Class Action needs to be brought against these developers and APPLE for this egregious violation of public trust and outright theft. The response from this deceitful developer posted below is typical “who me” B.S. blaming their corruption on someone else instead of taking responsibility for their own actions. To developer: You want to do right by customers? Then revoke this APP and suspend all recurring subscriptions until YOU fix the alleged issue with APPLE..Version: 2.1
✓ LOCATIONDoes not allow me to edit location. Emailed developer and DID NOT GET A REPLY..Version: 2.2
✓ One IssueI like this app however occasionally when editing location data an error occurs that says, “Failed to edit location data.” This doesn’t happen on all photos so I’m not sure what the issue is..Version: 2.2
✓ Feature Request - Multiple SelectI would really like the ability to easily select multiple photos by simply dragging my finger down like photos selects, or at the very least a select entire album button..Version: 2.12
✓ Won’t Work with Correcting Copyright InfoI paid for the Pro Version but I’m sorry I bothered. I want to make a slight change to my copyright info but the changes won’t save. The app tells me the photo has been modified but It hasn’t. There is no in app help and I have a lot of questions about saving the photo as a copy as opposed to modifying the original file. The last thing I need are more duplicates. This should be simple but apparently it isn’t. The concept, features and interface are all great. Sadly it just doesn’t work for me..Version: 2.12
✓ Great functionality but ads too intrusiveI’d give this a 5 based in functionality, but it has the most intrusive ads I’ve ever seen in an app; they are literally the equivalent of web pop-ups, which are the scourge of web browsing. Knocking it down to three stars due to the intrusive ads..Version: 1.7
✓ Completely uselessThis is a complete waste of time - you import from Lightroom , edit the data and it doesn’t change the data in Lightroom . You can send a copy to Lightroom but then you still have the original raw file with original Exif data plus a jpeg with the modified data. Why bother ?.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Basically very basicEXIF doesn’t give you any valuable information that most likely you don’t already know. Also personally I don’t like apps that auto renew their subscription charge, EXIF have made cancelling quite a challenge. For these reasons I’d strongly recommend you don’t purchase..Version: 2.1
✓ IOS 10: doesn't show updated EXIF dataAlthough I can successfully write EXIF data, the app never shows any EXIF data on any image, even when I set it using this app. This means that I can't update data without re-writing all of the fields that I want to preserve..Version: 1.6
✓ Doesn’t work properlyThis app crashes every time I change metadata. It’s also very annoying that it can only do 20 pictures at a time. I would like to do large batches. If it worked properly it would be a good app as the interface is clear and simple..Version: 2.8
✓ No HEIC & Fails to Remove Date/TimeThis app used work. But now it’s nowhere near as useful and you should NOT get it. First, when load in a photo, it tells you that it CANNOT read heic format photos, which is what ALL photos on iPhones are now, and instead converts them to a poor quality jpeg. This is already a major flaw and tells you the app is not worth the money. Second, if you used the “remove all metadata” option on a photo, it does not do that and keeps the time and date. But that’s part of the metadata! It should also be removed. Basically, the app needs to correct these flaws before anyone should consider getting it, so don’t get it until, or if ever, then..Version: 2.12
✓ Does not work at all on iPhoneToo bad I cant choose 0 stars.Version: 1.8
✓ Can edit titles but still not searchable in iOSI am disappointed in this app. I want to add titles to my photos in the same way I do on my Mac. This app apparently allows the adding of titles yet when I try to search in the photos app the newly titled photo doesn’t show up. What is the point of editing Metadata if I can’t use it outside the app. Perhaps if this is ever fixed I will give a better review. I was willing to pay for the app if this has worked. Please, can this be fixed ?.Version: 1.8
✓ Not so easyDon’t know how you put a GPS tag on photos. Also full-screen pop ups of ads very annoying.Version: 2.2
✓ Can’t save editsI tried over and over, but couldn’t get the app to work. I remove some EXIF data, then press save, iOS asks if I allow the app to modify the photo. But the photo still has the data I removed. I’m using iOS 13.1.2 on an iPhone 11 Pro. Would love to give 5 stars!.Version: 1.8
✓ Keeps crashingWhen opening a folder or any folder within photo app on ipad. On iPhone it works well..........why pls fix this on ipad. Even tried deleting the app and re-installing it.Version: 2.2
✓ Free?Why do I have to add my credit card information if it’s a ‘free’ app? Is it possible to actually user the app without adding card information!.Version: 2.8
✓ CrashingThe app loads, i find the album i want, i select the photos i want to edit, i put the info in, then the app crashes right before the app has time to edit the info. i even turned my phone off then on to see if this will help with the crashing . . . nope, no go as it still kept crashing. i would love if i could change the oder of the albums, instead of it being based entirely upon when the folder was made = where it appears on the list..Version: 2.8
✓ Mapping is limitedThe geolocation is shown in a small map within the app. It sure would be nice to expand or contract the map to see better there the location actually is. Better yet, have an option that passes the geotag to Apple Maps so I can use that. For example, to get directions to where the photo was taken..Version: 2.5
✓ VideosWe need video support.Version: 2.2
✓ To Remove Private Meta Data, User Have To Give Private Data To This App !!This app collects private data, not good practice at all , but does not require subscription/payment for removing meta data , but in free mode there are excessive ads and it appears to not function !! so its kind of useless, unless you pay . Whats the point, that, to remove private meta data, user have to give/share private data !!? dangerous policy by developers . no one beside God can protect private data safely..Version: 2.14
✓ No instruction can’t figure it out. Won’t let me add photosNot easy to use at all. Confusing and no instruction. They want you to buy the pro version..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Stopped working a few weeks agoI’ve used this app for years without issue. About 3-4 weeks ago it stopped working as usual. After I select a photo and “remove all metadata” option, it now keeps all Exif data. 2 months ago, all of that would be deleted. So, if I re-select the same photo and use the “remove Exif” option, it will not remove the Exif. 2-3 months ago, I’d select a photo and all, & I mean all data was removed except for the photo itself. The photo metadata/Exif page was just blank. Not anymore. Now it looks like a CVS receipt after “remove all metadata” or “remove Exif” operations. This was a once great and simple app. It’s not working even after deleting and reinstalling it..Version: 2.12
✓ Doesn’t transfer photo with metadata.We need to transfer the iPhone photos to PC with their metadata. This has an option to transfer with metadata but the data does not transfer. Otherwise test this is a great app to see the metadata..Version: 2.12
✓ So buggyConstantly crashes and needs to be restarted. So so buggy. Not sure how apps this unstable make it to the App Store. I paid for the Professional version - but want a refund..Version: 2.2
✓ Keeps crashingWhile editing the dates on batches of photos the app will crash and shutdown. I’ve tried only editing 10 then 9 then eight and so on but it just crashes randomly. I was really hoping this app would help me fix my 70k plus photos. I do like the feature that it will delete the original after saving the new dated photos but the constant crashing is a real nuisance and leaves me looking for a different app..Version: 2.12
✓ Fails to see some shared albumsWhile some shared albums are visible, others are simply not there?.Version: 2.0.1
✓ No video metadata removalWorks well, but for some reason doesn’t do videos! I bought the subscription basically assuming this functionality. It seemed to basic and obvious as to not even think about, does this app do videos. It was only when I wanted to use the app on videos that I realised. Will remove when implemented..Version: 1.8
✓ No longer usable after feature updateThe only reason I chose to use this app is because I could open a picture from my camera roll directly into this app. Apparently that has changed? Now when I go to open a photo in the app, it just takes me to the home page. I have hundreds of thousands of photos… I have so many photos that this app doesn’t load my library. And because I can’t load the library, I can’t select a photo, which means that this app is literally functionally useless for me now… I hope this change was a mistake. If not, it was a nice app while I could still use it..Version: 2.15
✓ Doesn’t work on video files?This inky works on photos as far as I can see there is no support for video files..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Used to work on iPadI’ve use this app on the iPad for a couple years now but for some reason once you’ve selected pictures and removed meta-data they “appear” to be in the folders and within the app ( it will list the number of photos) but once you click on the folder such as “All Photos” they all disappear. I also have this app on my iPhone and it appears to work as it should..Version: 2.2
✓ Doesn’t work.Doesn’t work..Version: 1.5
✓ GPS not readLooks great in many ways, but does nor appear to be able to read GPS data from exif as embedded by camera. This for me was the whole point, as Lightroom Mobile doesn’t either..Version: 2.14
✓ Can’t edit file nameOtherwise not bad.Version: 2.12
✓ Exif not savingI’ve reviewed a lot of pictures I had without location and date and now when I go back to it, it shows that the location did save but the date is forgotten 😩. I will need to review each picture again to reset the date but I’m hesitant to do it with this app again... it would be useful if we could also save the pictures under another name so I can put the date there as well..Version: 2.8
✓ Not up to expectationsIt doesn’t seem to clean exif thoroughly. Hmmm..Version: 2.1
✓ The app crashesIt freezes, very slow to update the new photos. It crashes. No use. I uninstalled it.Version: 2.2
✓ DissatisfiedDoes not do videos..Version: 2.12
✓ Crashes when opening a folderWhich for large quantities of pictures is a must functionality. That alone would stop me buying the ‘pro’ version. Having to watch an advert for each pic change in the free version - a no no..Version: 2.2
✓ Secretly Compresses PhotosWhen editing EXIF the app will compress files which is totally unacceptable and not advertised in any manner. I can’t fault the EXIF editing function though beware that there is a limit of 20 for performance reasons - the app seems to crash..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Don’t like it. Noisy adds and to distractingTo me it’s all about the advertising not about the photos .the photos are hidden by maps. Not for me see you.Version: 2.8
✓ Crashes, and does not successfully edit Exif dataCrashes, and does not successfully edit Exif data.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Not worth itIt does a copy of the original photo on each edit/save 🤦🏻♂️ also riddle with ads..Version: 2.12
✓ Exif …No instructions provided. No data came to screen, after I selected a single photo to test the app. A HELP file would be nice, because after I provided negative feedback I was sent the answer: if screen is blank after I test a photo, it means the photo HAS NO EXIF DATA..Version: 2.8
✓ Good but -Great app to sort out photos that got mixed up when I changed my phone. I had so many photos to sort out that I bought the pro version to edit the meta of several photos at once and it sped up the process. The app does not always work though. Sometimes the date needs to be entered 2 or 3 times i.e I enter a date and the app just changes it. That I find very annoying. Sometimes it’s not possible to select the photos. Would be nice if these issues were fixed. Thanks.Version: 2.5
✓ TrashFar too busy trying to trick you into clicking on the Ads.Version: 2.12
✓ Ads in trial put me offApp seems to work well but the so called “free to try” involves being forced to watch full screen ads, with sound, then being asked to review and rate app every time you edit a pic. I get that after a while - as the developer needs to make income - but how about a less intrusive approach for the first try. I won’t now buy as a result..Version: 2.0.1
✓ ConfusedLike the idea and premise. Only used a few days but ... once data is set and original replaced, new data is not holding. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Disappointed. Hopefully it’s a glitch and will work itself out. If not, I just wasted $9.99 for pro version..Version: 2.2
✓ DisappointingI just got the app and expected ads. I did one action - remove location data, and then bam - save and ad. No, I could not explore the features to understand how it works and examine the result… immediate distraction. I guess it is how they make the money. Not impressed..Version: 2.12
✓ Useless for editing photos not on the camera rollIt gave me some weird subset of pics to choose from from my photo library. No access to albums or Dropbox or other sources of photos on my phone. Oh well..Version: 1.8
✓ Does not work properly selecting more than pic at a timeWhen selecting more than a pic, you receive a message that adding a location was successfuly done, and you select to delete the original ones. It only added location to 2 pics out of 10, but deleted the 10. So I lost 8 pics. Be careful and don’t upgrade. I will look for a better app. Don’t waste your time.Version: 2.2
✓ Ads?As of August 2023 they’ve added advertisements that autoplay every time you go to edit the metadata of a photo. And that’s even after I’ve already paid a subscription to use the app! It used to be a good tool, but having to watch FREQUENT ads each time you save a photo is totally impractical. I’d now recommend looking elsewhere for your metadata editing needs 🫤.Version: 2.14
✓ Not good enoughThe title says it all..Version: 2.12
✓ Slow and annoying.Slow and annoying. The app barely lets you blink before interrupting you an ad..Version: 2.2
✓ Does not work on multi selectIt works when doing one photo at a time but does not remove location data when using multi select. I purchased the pro version. Using iPhone 11 pro on iOS 13.1.2.Version: 1.8
✓ Just did not workIt could not find the photos on my iPad. Everything you asked to do said you had to upgrade to the pro version. Useless waste of time. ...... Thanks for reply. I have not had time to investigate the suggestion but it would have helped if the program had mentioned it at the point when the upgrade was plugged. I have given you two more stars.I was too harsh..Version: 2.12
✓ Nice app but still problemsGreat app, allows me to check the exif data on all photos easily Updated to the pro via itunes but it doesnt want to exit, keeps asking me and i have to recheck it to get it to say i have paid but then does not exit. I have to close the app manually In the setting i thought there would be more options, not adverts for software from the same developer, not cool So, yes good app, just needs more work to slick it up a bit more, like actually opening the map if asked to to show the location in detail rather than an overview map.Version: 1.7
