Simple and easy to use yet very powerful. I can easily edit all metadata and even has suggestions for date/time to align with other dates associated with the image. Also easy to work through multiple files and edit in bulk.

Would be better if it could support HEIC photos. Happy to pay a few dollars for this feature.

オールドレンズ撮影時に便利

オールドレンズや電子接点のないマニュアルレンズを使った撮影をしたときに、Lightroomへ取り込む前にレンズ情報を付加しています。めちゃくちゃありがたいのですが、複数ファイルの一括変更をするとめちゃくちゃ保存に時間がかかるのが難点・・・
特段重いデータでもないので、なんとかならないかなぁと思っています。

レンズ情報が無茶苦茶になる
by おうとばっく
Aug 25, 2021 - version 2.3.3
EXIF編集後に写真アプリに取り込むと、レンズ名が無茶苦茶になります。
正)Sony FE 24-105mm F4.0 OSS
誤)Sony E PZ 1000mm F8.2 ZA OSS LE II
正)Sony FE 20mm F1.8
誤)Sony E PZ 1000mm F0.2 OSS LE II
どこの並行世界の話ですか?
画像(JPG)ファイルには、複数のフォーマットでメタデータを記録できます。EXIFはメタデータフォーマットのひとつです。さらに、EXIFにはタグ番号をベースにしたフォーマットと、XMPフォーマットがあります。

それらふたつのフォーマット内に「レンズのモデル名」項目が記録されている場合、Appleの写真アプリはタグ番号ベースの内容を優先して読み込み表示します。

「レンズのモデル名」項目は以下のとおり
・タグ番号ベース
 タグ番号: 42036
 Sony E PZ 1000mm F8.2 ZA OSS LE II
・XMP EXIF Ex
 プロパティー名: exifEX:LensModel
 Sony FE 24-105mm F4.0 OSS

上記のようにふたつのフォーマットで記録されていると写真アプリではご指摘のようになります。内容を統一するか、タグ番号ベースの項目を削除してください。編集後は一度写真アプリから画像を削除して再読み込みしてください。再読み込みしないと写真アプリに反映されません。タグ番号ベースの項目を削除した場合はXMPの項目の内容が読み込まれます。

「レンズのモデル名」に限らず他の項目でも同じようなことが起こります。特に日時関連やGPSなどの項目はEXIF以外のメタデータにも存在しており、ソフトウェアによって表示する優先順が違うので注意が必要です。
また、EXIFには存在しませんが、「キーワード」項目も複数のフォーマットに記録できますので同じような注意が必要です。
当サイトのユーザーガイドもご参照お願いいたします。

Disappointed

I don't think I'll ever going to trust reviews ever again. This app does not even open (on Big Sur, after the "optimized for Big Sur" 2.3.2 update). Upon opening, it asks to select a folder but that's it. It doesn't open the folder, it doesn't work. What a waste of money, hope I can make my case for a refund with Apple.
Does the folder has any JPEG files? You can open JEPG and TIFF file formats only. Others (e.g. PNG, HEIC, DNG) are not supported. What if you drag and drop JPEGs directly onto the app icon?

読み込み時にメモリ不足で落ちます。 24GB積んだ2017lateのiMacです。 8千枚程度のjpeg画像ですが、1時間かかって80%くらい読み込んだ時点で落ちます。何度やっても同じです。 本番でも使うことはありませんでした。返金してほしいくらいです。 作者さん、コメントありますか? Appleももう少し審査を厳しくしてほしいです。
現在、外付けストレージからJPG画像を読み込むとメモリ消費が多くなることが分かっております。多量のファイルを読み込むと最終的にメモリ不足でシステムから強制終了が促されてしまいます。アプリがクラッシュすることもあります。

ご迷惑おかけしております。次のアップデートで修正します。(年内中)

It doesn't open Photos Library. May be a user error, hoping the product owners are able to show me how I can use the project with MacOS 10.15.3 Photos Library. If you don't have that function; there is no use of this app for me (there was no try version for me to verify - I am ok with $4, no issue), just hoping if we can get that implemented in future. It would be an excellent add on to Photos, as there is no bulk update function there.

Overall, great app! It allows you to customize a ton of details in bulk, save GPS locations, auto-fill fields, and it works with pre-1970 Unix dates. One negative, however, is that it doesn't open PNGs nor MOVs. You can still use macOS's Terminal for those, but it would be more convenient in this app.

Great update
by quality only please
Dec 05, 2014 - version 2.1.1
This is a super powerful application, definitely the best for editing EXIF data. The addition of Apple Maps support makes the mapping experience significantly better than the other software. The update for OSX Yosemite has made it even better. Initially it can be hard to figure out how to use the app, and usability could do with a bit of focused improvement. I wish an app with this level of functionality was also on iOS.

I had a program I loved but it no longer works with all the Apple software updates. This program doesn’t work at all. It’s not very intuitive how you get to and add metadata. No help file or support area on developer’s website. Tried changing the metadata date numerous times on numerous files and the changes never stuck. Crap program. Don’t waste your money.

Gute Idee, aber funktioniert nicht besonders gut

Leider werden manche Änderungen erst nach mehreren Anläufen gespeichert. Außerdem funktionieren die Presets nicht. Wenn man seine Metadaten eingegeben hat, kann man sie abspeichern. Allerdings werden sie beim Import nicht zur Gänze übernommen. Schade. Ich hoffe es gibt Updates.

iPhotoへGPSデータ変更が反映されないのは?

Feb 01, 2015 - version 2.1.1
非常に使いやすくて、便利なソフトです。
海外旅行で撮った写真のうち、屋内写真のGPSデータずれを、素早く大量に修正することができました。
でも、iPhotoで再び見てみると、データが反映されていないものがあります。
何度やっても同じなんですが、変更されているものもあるようなんです。
iPhotoでは参照しているGPSデータのオフセットが異なるんでしょうか?

Ugly icon and weird UI. But it does the job.

There are many apps that let you CHANGE the Exif dates on an image, but this is one of very few that will ADD Exif data to image files that do not have already have Exif data.
So far I’ve only used it to add/adjust image capture dates and it all works perfectly. And it looks to be capable of adding or editing all manner of metadata - Exif, IPTC, GPS, Photoshop, Dublin Core, etc.
It can do batch edits. It displays files as resizable thumbnails (with a good range of sizes), a hierarchical list or a flat list. In the list view there’s an optional small thumbnail too. If it has a lot of files open it helpfully adds a marker to show which ones have been changed but not yet saved so there is no need to work through the files in sequence.
So why only four stars? Two reasons.
1) The app is quite daunting, confusing and not easy to use. This is partly because the whole subject of metadata is complex, but there is no help and some aspects are not intuitive. For example, Exif is shown as a sub-item of TIFF even on a jpg file.
2) I haven’t used the GPS features yet. But from a quick look at them, either I’m seriously misunderstanding things or it’s the most bizarre way of handling GPS coordinates known to man

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.

Cannot access Iphoto library

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

photo meta edit

This is so tricky to use and i don;t think actually does anything. it doesn;t change exif data- just in the software itself. The GPS is dire with it only allowing you to type in a location name and then unable to move the pin about afterwards to specify and exact location. Useless.

It works, sometimes. And sometimes it doesn't. It edits pictures, sometimes. And sometimes it doesn't. 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, don't buy.

ミラーレスカメラでオールドレンズを使用する時にレンズ情報を書き込みたくて購入しましたが、
編集しても他のソフトで確認するとレンズ情報等一部情報が反映されていませんでした。
標準レンズ等の他ソフトで表示されるレンズ情報も読み込み出来ません。
タグナンバーが違うのでしょうか?ちなみにカメラはPEN E-PM2 Exif2.3です。
あと、複数写真一括編集後の一括保存も可能になるとありがたいのです。
メニューの「ファイル」>「すべて保存」で編集されたファイルの一括保存ができます。また、保存したいファイルを選択して、「保存」(command+S)で選択された複数ファイルの一括保存もできます。

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 you're doing a bunch at once. Other than that, the UI is nice.

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€!
