Metadata Pro for Negative User Reviews
✓ No Metadata addedWas mislead to believe app adds metadata to photos. It doesnt. Would get a refund if I can figure out how to do it..Version: 7.0
✓ Don’t buyWasted my time and money on this app for it not work. I’d give it zero stars if I could..Version: 8.7
✓ Video editing glitchyI have tried using this to edit GoPro videos with incorrect date and time, as well as add location. I have found that the app fails to change data on some videos - Sometimes the app reports an error and sometimes it just doesn’t work. Also, the process is slow and time consuming and you can’t shift the time / date on a batch without making them all identical (at least not as far as I have found)..Version: 7.5
✓ Live converts to jpgNot useful because changing metadata also converts live image to jpg.Version: 8.1
✓ Doesn’t work!App crashes when you select "remove all metadata". Last version was better. More reliable. Now you go to edit any of the metadata and it says “one or more if the changes could not be edited”. Defeats the purpose. Per the developer response, where I was told to update the app to the latest version, and if problems persist to contact them at their support@platinum... Well, I do have the latest version, and the problem persists. This app isn’t as good as it once was, it was good once, as it ever was..Version: 6.5
✓ Not happy!I got this to add geo location to my thousands of photos. Two problems. 1. A selected location on the West Coast of Scotland showed up off the Norwegian coast. This was confirmed by separately entering the generated coordinates direct into Google Maps. 2. The user interface is grim. For each set of metadata you wish to change, you have to create a schema. Then you select your photos, apply the schema and for each photo in the batch you need several clicks before picking the next. Very tedious and not an option if you have lots of photos to process. Now using Photo Mapper - much better, and ImagExif for dates etc..Version: 7.5
✓ Date doesn’t changeI’ve edited the original, digitized, and time stamps and none of the edits stick. I’ve tried several photos and this is the case each time. Very disappointed..Version: 6.5
✓ Waste of timeKeeps crashing when selecting a picture from an album. It data sorts on its own. No option to sort by date, camera type or location. That would have helped, but when you have to search through hundreds or even thousands of pictures in an album and then it crashes is not good. Wish I could get a refund or an app that works..Version: 7.0
✓ Doesn’t work.I’ve changed every date I can and the photo is still in the wrong order. I want my money back..Version: 9.2
✓ Doesn’t change date on iPhone picsI bought this to change the date on imported iPhone pics back to the ‘taken’ date. I believe the info which said it could do all I needed. However, changes are very hard to do, batch changes don’t seem possible, and the iPhone Photos app does not recognise any of the changes. I would like my £3.99 refunded. Very misleading app info..Version: 9.2
✓ Mistake to purchaseApp crashes constantly, and can’t handle more than 10 images at a time. Unusable..Version: 8.7
✓ Good, not great yetOverall a little better than other metadata apps. Still not what I need. I want to be able rename files. Also frustrating to batch change metadata and have all the new versions along side all originals. I don't want the originals and copies on my phone (and the trashcan vanished) Using this app disables other editing options in the photos. Bought it this afternoon and deleted it tonight. I'll try again later. There is potential. I'm hopeful..Version: 2.0
✓ Needs Instructions!Not at all intuitive and requires a lot of experimentation to get results. Not a single word of documentation is included with the app or on the developer website..Version: 7.5
✓ DisappointedLocations don’t update. Map is blank. One confusing and frustrating app..Version: 7.0
✓ M.soumarKeeps crashing Even when it stays open until I choose my photo , the changes does not take effect in photos I only needed to change date Waste of money.Version: 5.2
✓ Waste of moneyDon’t purchase it’s not working i wasted £3.99.. I want refund.Version: 8.5
✓ DisappointedI bought the app to change the date my pictures and doesn’t update in library.Version: 7.5
✓ App doesn't work, I want a refundThe date of my photos don't change in my photos app so what's the point? I want a refund..Version: 8.7
✓ 🙏It was ok before the update. Pls fix it.Version: 8.2
✓ Dont buyToo complicated to use. Need a university course to use. Just wanted to change the name of pic and change the date to sort by date but to many features.Version: 7.5
✓ Doesn't workI purchased the app to remove metadata for Instagram stories. The free version works but when I remove with the pro version it doesn't go through, and does not clear data. Why?!?.Version: 5.0
✓ Completely cleared all dates instead of updatingIOS version 12.01 - all image date details removed from test images. Avoid..Version: 7.0
✓ Dysfunctional UIPurchased pro version only to later find out that one must quit/restart the program EVERY time you want to select a new group of photos...if you back out of the photo select menu, then there is no option to return and select new/different photos...frustrating & time consuming (!).Version: 9.2
✓ Edits location decently but time badlyWanted something that would allow me to make similar edits as to what’s possible on the Mac photos app, editing location was ok but editing time using intervals didn’t work (wasn’t reflected in photos app).Version: 7.0
✓ DisappointingPurchased this for the sole purpose of correcting dates on my photos on my iPhone so I wouldn’t have to bother with doing it on my Mac. Unfortunately despite 4 attempts to change the date, the photo still hasn’t updated to reflect the change so I’m pretty sure this app is a dud. I only gave it two stars simply because it was interesting to be able to see all the metadata attached to a photo - but definitely not worth $2.99.Version: 7.0
✓ IOS 12 supportI do not know if it’s IOS 12 causing the problem, but after updating my software to the most recent IOS I am unable to change the location for my photos and videos..Version: 7.0
✓ Bought app to update photo date - failIt doesn’t do it successfully. I will be reporting to Apple and asking for my money back..Version: 7.5
✓ Doesn't workApp doesn't do advertised batch edits. App doesn't even edit or modify single images. Takes you through process but in reality nothing was modified..Version: 4.4
✓ Barefoot edit lieYou still have to choose one by one.Version: 9.2
✓ Right idea, not far enoughSo far only tried with video files. Will display much metadata, but doesn't let me select the metadata I want to change. I can change a video create date but not the modify date. I'd like to tap on the field to change, but have to select the field from a list. Difficult to find those fields that apply to videos. This app is sooooo close, just those two things - change modify date and in-line editing - to modify video metadata would make this app rock..Version: 4.3
✓ It workedIt works but not pretty and kinda confusing..Version: 7.0
✓ The creation date won't change.It doesn't do what it's advertised to do. Plus, it rotates photos when you clear the metadata..Version: 5.3
✓ Unstable, crashes, has promiseI purchased this app to bulk edit/add GPS information that images imported from a DSLR. This seemed to be one of the few apps that can do bulk editing and addition of GPS data. It took me a little while to figure out how the app allows me to add GPS data - you have to create a scheme before adding the data and not during adding the data. There is no documentation, but hey ho, it's not rocket science. Problematic is the continuous crashing of the app. When I tried to add GPS data to 50+ photos, it crashed several times during the process. I left wondering where I have to re-start the process. The app crashes also regularly when browsing photo metadata. Overall it seems very unstable. Also, about batch editing: I have to confirm for each image whether or not the app is allowed to modify the photo. I am not sure whether this is an iOS restriction or a design flaw. There is promise in this app, but it seems to be currently in a beta state. iPad, 4th generation Up-to-date iOS 10.x (July 2017).Version: 4.4
✓ Caused issues in my apple photos appI downloaded this app to correct the date of old photo I scanned. I should have just used my MacBook where it’s easy. Firstly there is no “years” view so I had to scroll back through all 60k+ photos in my library or create an album in the photos app to get to the ones I wanted. It takes a very long time to load, (possibly that’s my library size). There little guidance and unless you want photos to be changed to “today” you have to select them individually and it’s a laborious process. Finally when it did work one photo caused my phone to create an “1980 - 2018” album with photos from yesterday I didn’t edit in the app. I returned the app and will only ever use the MacBook native photos app to edit metadata in the future..Version: 7.0
✓ ScamDont buy this app, its a scam!.Version: 9.2
✓ Too much compressionThe app creates new jpg images that are of horrendous quality because of over compression. Lossy quality is unacceptable!.Version: 9.2
✓ Fix or give me my money back!!App describes in-app purchases will cost $1.99. Once app is downloaded, the price changes to $3.99! Then the app doesn’t even work! I have tried several ways and cleared all girls and still...the date and other information is still viewable. Fix this or I want a refund!!.Version: 8.3
✓ Adding/changing GPS location not an optionThe screenshots aren’t representative of what I’m seeing. I purchased this to add locations to my imported photos, but the button simply doesn’t show up as an option. App is worthless to me..Version: 9.2
✓ Scam!Guys please don’t spend your money on this app. It’s a scam! It will not update your date/time on a picture! To be sure it didn’t work, I watched a YouTube video showing how to use it. They’re scamming for 3 dollars. Losers..Version: 8.7
✓ From Bad to WorseThe app had its share of issues on iOS 10, but at least it still worked. Upgrading to iOS 11 effectively destroyed any remaining functionality. I bought it so I could remove GPS data in bulk. On iOS 10, “bulk” meant “about 7 or less”. More that 7 would crash. On iOS 11, after three attempts I was finally able remove GPS info from ONE picture. Attempting to strike while the iron was hot, I tried it again on another picture... and it crashed. Booooooo.Version: 5.2
✓ Keeps crashing when trying to change dateI've tried multiple times to adjust the creation date and it keeps crashing.Version: 4.3
✓ Unstable program when selecting multiple photosI imported old photos back onto iCloud, now on my phone, and the original time stamps were lost. Found this program to edit the metadata so that the photos could be mass moved to an older date to keep my photos in chronological order. Works for single photo selection. If selecting multiple photos, the program spins its wheels or will process the first few and then error and force close..Version: 7.0
✓ App does not workAt first it appears to be working, I have tried to send several pictures and the original metadata ways gets sent no matter what I change on it. Do not trust this app.Version: 4.4
✓ Read this before you buyTHIS APP DOES NOT UPDATE THE ORIGINAL PHOTO BUT WILL CREATE A COPY OF IT! I DO NOT SEE THE POINT AS YOU'LL END UP WITH TWO COPIES (OR MORE) IF YOU MAKE ANY CHANGES! Utter Rubbish!.Version: 2.1
✓ HelpEverytime I try to change the creation date it doesn’t let me.Version: 9.0
✓ Doesn’t WorkIn tried to change a creation date and a TIFF date to make the photos sort properly in IPAD Photos and it did not work. There is no embedded HELP a only a link to YOUTUBE with outdated videos. Really disappointed!.Version: 9.2
✓ Very misleadingYou can’t actually edit metadata in the camera roll like the app implies.Version: 7.0
✓ Doesnt work for half the planetIf you are setting the GPS data below the equator by choosing from the map… bad luck, this app will set the latitude to a positive value (ie the northern hemisphere), omitting the negative sign 😓 Also the search text field to find a location to tag has white text on a white background, so you cant even see what you’re typing..Version: 9.2
✓ Crashing IssueApp crashes when changing multiple photos and videos..Version: 9.2
✓ BadDoes not do what it says..Version: 9.2
✓ Video metadataApp keeps closing/failing every time I try to change the video date..Version: 7.5
✓ Does not work.Waste of money. Couldn’t correct the dates and locations..Version: 8.1
