Photo Meta Edit App Reviews

I bought this to add descriptions into the metadata for photos taken with my Samsung smartphone. I use Picasa to manage my pictures and it is unable to write to the file on the Samsung photos like it did with my digital camera. I want the descriptions/comments to be embedded in the picture for sharing and this app easily allowed me to do that.

I cannot access the photos which are located in the Iphoto Library. Thus I bought it on purpose to modify the photos which are stored there. So it obliges me to export the photos in another file which is too complicate I hope the editor will correct this bug or explain how to proceed

This application does not modify the metadata for the Photos applications of the Mcbook. It is completely useless with the pictures in the Photos library.

Impossible to edit multiple file (more than 2) without a crash under Yosemite. map viewer and editor work only with one file. User Guide and Help missing. Usefull as a meta viewer only. Batch Editing ? Don’t waste your time trying to use this application and save your money.

I just needed it for a quick batch editing on photos taken with my Nikon D800 to have the location in the photos that are added to Photos on OS X. Since unfortunately, Photos doesn’t offer the location editing feature as iPhoto used to offer…

A photo app that does not handle .cr2 raw files serves for nothing. Please give me my money back.

I am changing the creation date of my photo that is wrong because the setting of the camera was incorrect, it states that it has changed the date, but in the Mac Finder, Adobe bridge etc the creation date is still the original wrong date. complete waste of 3.59€!

Very revealing to find how many Profile Photos actually reveal the GPS location! Very useful app to find just how much information you are unknowingly putting in public areas of the Internet! Very worrying too. App works perfectly.

Photos from iPhoto can’t be read? Really? An app for Mac from the Mac App Store can’t open iPhoto photos? Sorry...

Program crashes when I try to select a .jpg. This program does not work, please fix then I will rate again.

I bought this program to batch shift the date/time and set the GPS location. It took around 10 minutes to figuire out how to actually accomplish this, but now that I know how it will be easy to do again. $4 for a batch EXIF editing program… I like that! Haven’t run into any problems so far.

Used it to edit the metadata on a .tif. Worked well. Dinged a star because it crashed once and the icon is ugly. I recommend saving after each image you do if youre doing a bunch at once. Other than that, the UI is nice.

It works, sometimes. And sometimes it doesnt. It edits pictures, sometimes. And sometimes it doesnt. It has this nice feature where you can create a list of GPS coordinates. That worked great. Sometimes. Sometimes a new location was saved in the list, sometime not. Then the entire list I entered disappeared. Programs that cause more aggravation then solving problems get discarded into the dustbin of history. Bye bye, dont buy.

great program but the latest update has caused it be unstable. crashes about half of the time when i try to edit multiple files at once. previous version was rock solid.

nice idea, but the metadata doesn’t seem to ‘stick’. going with another solution. good try.

I’m going though several hundrend photographs and adding XMP metadata. This program fits perfectly into my workflow and was the only app I could find for OSX that could edit XMP metadata on multiple images simultaneously.

Cannot edit metadata on existing photos in Photos or iPhoto

It seems that whatever I do to adjust the date of a group of photos, the year comes out 9999. If I shift by months or years, even very small number, the year becomes 9999. Other than that….which is really a huge issue for what I am doing now. it seems like a good program.
