Metapho is a more complex app which can be used to both add and remove location data from your photos. It lacks 3D Touch support, but it does let you use your Apple Watch to tag a location. You can let it track you, but if you just record individual locations, it will combine them into a GPX file for export. I quite like Geotag Photos Tracker for logging, a $1.99 iPhone and Apple Watch app which lets you log your current position with a single tap on it’s giant on-screen button. GeoTag Photos Tracker is simple and effective. You can use any GPX data file with Geotag Photos Tagger on the iPad, whether from another app, or from a dedicated GPS logger device.

You get three free trips before you have to purchase the app All your imported photos now have accurate location data. If you’re happy that it all looks correct, tap the button to tag the photos. It then shows all these photos as thumbnails on a map, and you can even tap them to get a full-screen view. The app takes a look at the GPX file, then compares it to the time stamps of the photos in your library, and combines the two.

Logging with Geotag Photos Pro Geotag Photos Tagger has plenty of features, but can also work almost completey automatically. The latter takes this GPX track and automatically applies it to your photos. The former runs in the background on your iPhone and tracks your every move, writing it to a GPX track. Geotag Photos Pro and Geotag Photos Tagger run on the iPhone and iPad respectively. In the end, I settled on a one-two combo from the same developer. Geotag Photos Pro and Geotag Photos Tagger Recording a GPX track is super easy. This is a great option, as it adds no extra battery drain - the app is already taking your location anyway. This way you will have all your raw files and the route that you walked to take all these pictures in one place.One thing to note before we go in: If you take walks in the wilderness and use a dedicated maps app like Gaia GPS, you can often tell them to save your GPS track too. One last thing that I’ve been thinking about doing is moving the GPX log file to the photo album folder. This name convention will also speed up the above script because it will ignore irrelevant files. This way it’s easier to see the difference between the different types of GPX files. The reason I prefer to prefix my track file using log is because I also store a list of hike and mountain bike trails in the same Dropbox folder.
