Geotag Photos Pro is a Photography and Images app for Mac.

About

Geotag Photos Pro is a macOS desktop application for geotagging images with recorded location data. The product’s documented workflow pairs a desktop app, which geotags images, with GPS data recorded during a trip. The desktop app remains available to download.

  • Use recorded GPS data to add location information to images.
  • The product describes support for JPEG and most RAW image formats.
  • Recorded routes can be exported as GPX files; the product describes using those files with Lightroom’s Map module.
  • The desktop app is distinct from the iOS and Android apps, which have been removed from their app stores and can no longer be installed. Existing users can continue using the service until at least 31 December 2027.

Install the macOS desktop app with brew install --cask geotag-photos-pro. To geotag photos, you need recorded GPS data to use with the desktop app. The product’s documented recording workflow used its mobile apps, which are no longer available to new users. The Homebrew cask installs Geotag Photos Pro 2.app in /Applications.
