Well I'm not in the iOS ecosystem, but I genuinely like the location data to be in my photos, and I go somewhat out of my way to ensure it stays there.
Being able to search my images by location means I can easily find all images from my trip to X, or grab all the pictures I took while at my old house. It's hugely useful and I would be livid if an is update or app update started striping that info.
- abakker 9y agoSimple. Make a setting that defaults to "no, don't share the exif location data with 3rd party apps" but can be changed to "yes, do that" if you want to.
- hobarrera 9y agoWhat if an app edits a photo? The exif location data would then be permanently lost. It's not as simple as that.
- vaishaksuresh 9y agoThe stripping was more for third party apps. I should be able to decide if instagram sees the EXIF or not.
