FAQ

Do these steps work on both desktop and mobile?

Yes. The workflow is browser-based and works on modern desktop and mobile browsers with the same metadata rules.

Where does the location come from?

We read EXIF GPS coordinates and convert them to a readable place name through reverse geocoding.

What if EXIF metadata is missing?

The workflow falls back to manual input for missing fields when possible, and unavailable data is surfaced as warnings.
