Geotag
What it is
Geotag edits location information for photos and videos in a Photos.app Photo Library. Its map shows where photos were taken, and photos can be dragged onto it to assign locations. Filters help locate items missing location details, while saved favorite places such as home or a studio can be applied in a few taps. Geotag works offline, with modifications syncing through the Photo Library; favorite locations sync across devices through the user's iCloud account. The maker says the app does not alter or delete Photo Library images and that location data can be reverted in Photos.app. It also says the app was not built to receive user data and has no third-party libraries that might collect it. The App Store lists Foobar OÜ as developer and seller, and reports that the developer says the app collects no data; Apple notes that this privacy information has not been verified. The listed plan costs $3.99, paid once and covers Photos.app Photo Library location data only. There is no free plan or trial. It is available for iPad and Mac, with stated minimums of iPadOS 18.0 and macOS 15.0, respectively.
