Are my photos uploaded to remote servers?

No. GeoTaggingPhotos prioritizes your privacy and security. Image processing and EXIF metadata editing are performed directly in your browser whenever possible, which means your original photos and location data remain under your control.
You can add, edit, replace, and inspect GPS coordinates without permanently storing your files on external servers.

How does photo geotagging work?
expand_more
Photo geotagging works by embedding GPS metadata, such as latitude, longitude, and altitude, into an image file. This information becomes part of the image's EXIF data and can later be used to identify where the photo was taken.
Simply upload your image, enter custom coordinates or use your current location, and download the updated file in seconds.
edit_location
Can I replace existing GPS coordinates?
expand_more
Yes. If your uploaded image already contains location data, GeoTaggingPhotos automatically detects the existing coordinates and displays them in the editor.
You can:
- Keep the original coordinates
- Replace the location
- Remove GPS metadata completely
- Use your current location
photo_library
Can I process multiple photos at the same time?
expand_more
Absolutely. The Bulk Geotagging tool allows you to upload multiple images and apply the same GPS coordinates to every file simultaneously.
Instead of manually editing each image, simply enter the coordinates once, and the changes will be applied to all uploaded photos.
folder_zip
How are bulk-edited images downloaded?
expand_more
Single images are downloaded individually, while multiple edited photos are automatically packaged into a ZIP archive for faster and more organized downloads.
my_location
Can I use my current location to geotag photos?
expand_more
Yes. Click the Use Current Location button, allow browser access to your location, and the editor will automatically fill the latitude and longitude fields.
The detected coordinates can be applied to one image or an entire batch of photos.

How does geotagging help organize photos?
expand_more
GPS metadata makes it easier to organize travel albums, manage real-estate listings, document construction projects, and categorize images based on where they were captured.
Photographers, travelers, businesses, and drone operators often rely on location data to manage large image collections.
upload_file
Is there a limit on the number of images I can upload?
expand_more
The bulk editor supports large uploads, although the maximum number of images may depend on your browser, device performance, and file sizes.
