Adding new depth map metadata is not supported - Dedicated Date-Time Batch Functions ■ NOTE! This app cannot open or edit Apple's Photos library. Photos creates data files for metadata (e.g., metaSchema.db) within the Photos.photoslibrary > database directory when importing image files. It then displays metadata from metaSchema.db, rather than embedded metadata within the imported image files themselves. Since Photo Meta Edit modifies embedded metadata in image files, Photos will not display these changes. To see the changes reflected in Photos, you will need to re-import the image files to update metaSchema.db. It is advisable to edit images before importing them into Photos to avoid unexpected issues. Photos itself never modifies the original imported image files. Photo Meta Edit cannot edit the data files within Photos.photoslibrary to ensure the safety and integrity of your Photos library. Please backup your files before using this app, just in case any unexpected errors occur.

Doesn’t group correct dates properly

It seems that whatever I do to adjust the date of a group of photos, the year comes out 9999. If I shift by months or years, even very small number, the year becomes 9999. Other than that….which is really a huge issue for what I am doing now. it seems like a good program.

Almost Perfect

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.

Easy to add Description to IPTC Metadata

I bought this to add descriptions into the metadata for photos taken with my Samsung smartphone. I use Picasa to manage my pictures and it is unable to write to the file on the Samsung photos like it did with my digital camera. I want the descriptions/comments to be embedded in the picture for sharing and this app easily allowed me to do that.

Does not read XMP

I have photos with XMP data that uses custom namespaces. The data is visible fine in Photoshop and other apps, but this app does not show it at all. I purchased it just for the XMP support as depicted in the screenshots. On to the next app...
