NoLocation - App Review



When you send/share a photo, you are giving up much more than just an image. The EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) information that is part of the file includes many parameters, including location (where the image was taken).

This is a simple App for removing that one parameter.

Now for the ACIDS test:

Aesthetics
The screen you see gives you option to use either Camera or Photos.

If you pick photos you will then have access to your photos. Pick one and then you can share by e-mail, Twitter, Facebook, and plenty of other methods.

The point is that the location where the image was taken has been removed.

Cost
The App Costs a nominal $1.

Indispensability
There may be times when discretion is the better part of valour.

Dependability
This is an iPhone App which works in 1x and 2x modes on an iPad.

Security
The App needs access to your camera and/or photos (fairly obvious really).

This App should add to your security.

ACIDS Test Rating:

Easy to be a bit more discreet.
