EasyGeotag is on the App Store.

Your camera knows when. Your iPhone knows where. Match a trip (or GPX) to capture time, then write the place into JPEG, HEIC, and RAW — on your devices.

Leaving Mealime before 21 Oct? Mealime says personal data is deleted at shutdown, so this week save the original link of each recipe you cook in one note, and copy your own tweaks too.

I make Plate & Page, which imports a recipe from its link: https://t.co/ZCjAKbdP3q

Shared copies often lose the place.

WhatsApp, email compress, and many send-smaller paths strip EXIF GPS. Geotag the originals first, then make the share copy.

I make EasyGeotag for that. Free to start.

Save the recipe, not the link.

Recipe pages change, hide behind paywalls, or vanish. When a dish works, keep the ingredients, steps and your notes (less salt, 10 more minutes) somewhere you control.

@benakt Smart!

Two different things get mixed up here.
A map pin in an app only marks a place on that app’s map. It does not write a location into the video file, so Apple Photos still has nothing to plot.
To actually geotag the file: record a GPS track on the phone while you film (GPX). Then match each clip’s capture time to a point on that track and write the lat/long into the file’s metadata. After that, Photos can show it on the map.
The catch is the clocks. If the camcorder is 3 minutes ahead of the phone, every clip gets the wrong spot. Sync the camcorder clock to the phone before you shoot, or correct that offset when you match.
Pin = display. Metadata = the location lives in the file.

Record the walk on the phone. Geotag the camera later.

A mirrorless body often has no GPS. The phone in your pocket does. A GPX from the walk, plus photos whose clocks are close, is enough to put a place on each frame. Check two or three before you write the rest.

Building EasyGeotag for that step.

The map looks wrong. The clock looks fine. Often the zone is the bug.

After travel, a camera still on home time puts every photo hours off a GPX. Fix the zone (or the offset), then match.

Building EasyGeotag for that track → GPS-in-file step.

A map pin in Photos is not the same as GPS in the photo file.

Move the library, export, or open the file elsewhere and the pin can vanish. Location that survives is written into the file.

A GPX track and a photo folder can both be "right" and still miss each other.

If the camera clock is off by a few minutes, every match slides. Fix the offset first, then match points to files.

A GPS track is only as good as the camera clock.

If the body runs four minutes fast, every pin slides along the route.
Fix the offset (or shoot the phone lock screen once) before you match a GPX.

Most wrong geotags are a clock problem, not a map problem.

Match the photo’s capture time to a phone track (or a GPX), then write the place into the file. JPEG, HEIC, RAW. Nothing uploaded.

@Ybycui1 @bernabephoto Nice workaround. If the iPhone and R5 shots are close in time, matching timestamps can make a GPX/track-based geotag pass much faster—keep the camera clock synced and verify a few points before writing GPS into the raws.

[Trupo Software @TrupoSoftware]

@sanjee Yep—the D600 likely needs a separate track. Sync its clock to your phone/GPX, then match each photo by capture time (apply any offset) and write lat/lon into the original EXIF. Newer bodies may support GPS, but verify the file metadata.
