Casey Liss

I should have put a link in here. Someone suggested one of the... the tagging apps that looked pretty good. Basically, it's just an app that you run on your phone and it keeps track of your location and exports files in a format that a lot of apps can read to tag your files.

Anything to get out of the world of proprietary, like in my case, Sony apps that I think Sony like recently discontinued their app anyway. I don't even know if they replaced it, but those apps were terrible.

The good thing those apps had going for them is that they think they directly communicate with the camera, so there's no bringing it all into the Mac and combining it or whatever, but I'll gladly do that if it's something more sane. So I have on my list to check out some of the apps.

I think I already downloaded one of them to check out some of the apps that can export this standardized format for GPS tagging. And if I end up finding something that works, or if Casey does, we'll talk about it on the show, I'm sure.

Yeah, so there's a couple of nuances here. One is like the feature that Casey was referring to, like you get basically two choices of like, hey, what do you want me to do with respect to shared library? And the choices are automatic, which tries to do the smart thing, and manual. So Alexander's solution is first, select manual.

And then second, in the camera app at the top, there'll be this little yellow circle with either like one little person's head in it or two little people's heads in it. Change it to two little people's heads because that says, hey, when you take a photo with this camera, it'll go to the shared library. And that's it.

And unlike many other settings, there is nothing in the camera settings in iOS that says in the section for preserving settings that refers to this. So if you go to settings, go to camera, there's a thing of like, hey, which settings do you want me to preserve between launches of the camera? So like you launch the camera and say you change into video mode and then you go to a different app.

When you come back to camera, do you want it to still be in video mode or do you just want it always to go back to camera? That's an example of deciding whether you want a setting to be preserved. And Apple provides a whole screen full of these. You want me to preserve the style, the focus, the zoom. You can toggle these on and off.

And so if you've never checked that out, if you're frustrated that every time you launch the camera app, it doesn't remember something or it does remember some other thing, you can change your mind about those. But this shared versus non-shared thing is not in that set of preferences.

as far as i can tell it's just always remembered so as long as you set that setting and don't change it it will be preserved and you basically have no choice about that you got to be careful especially if it's not your phone that someone doesn't accidentally hit that and change it back to the other thing so there's some amount of vigilance required to make sure you stay on sending everything to shared but this was a great tip i did tried to do the same thing to my wife's camera app and told her about it and said now everything will go into your shared library because occasionally she sends things into the regular library so

Set to manual, change the setting in the camera app, and don't worry about the preserve settings because it doesn't apply to this particular thing.
