QromaTag
California, USA
What it is
QromaTag edits photo metadata and uses natural-language tagging to make image collections searchable. Its macOS app writes IPTC and EXIF metadata to JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and DNG files, and can apply metadata to multiple images at once. Optional voice recognition uses the built-in dictation system to turn spoken descriptions into metadata. The Mac app includes location tools and can back up originals before writing metadata. Its Relationship Manager maps family terms such as “mom” and “dad” to full names. On iOS, users can import images from iCloud, Dropbox, Camera Roll, or other iOS apps, with iCloud support across connected iOS devices. The app can also import a GEDCOM family tree for tagging relatives. QromaDrop’s Master Folder integration identifies images missing date fields and moves tagged images to the appropriate location. The iOS app costs $4.99, paid once; the macOS app costs $49.99, paid once and includes a 7-day trial. The Mac app requires macOS 10.11 or later. The maker says there is no Windows version.
