iPhone Will Not Geotag Photos

I have been following discussion on this issue in another Apple thread here:

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251840364?login=true&page=14

Apple finally rolled out the fix to this issue in iOS 14.2 and most users have confirmed that has resolved the issue. I guess this thread can be closed :)

Same here. I've tried all the "fixes" deleting map app then re-installing. It's hit and miss, sometimes it tags the photos but most of the time no ever since I did the ios 14 update and even the ios 14.0.1...

I also have this problem.

Also, to take photos in ‘burst’ you now have to press the volume up button instead of the capture button, which is not as easy to execute single handed.

I contacted Apple & was told there were no plans to reinstate using the capture button for ‘burst’. I’m VERY disappointed ☹️

I’ve contacted Apple Support several times, no one seems to know how to fix it, no one has an answer. Apple doesn’t seem to care, other than Apple rep I’m calling. Don’t they know these about these glitches, or is it that it’s not important to Apple?

Apple has PERMANENTLY disabled Geo Tagging photos. They think we are children and don’t know that there is a potential problem of sharing person information if we don’t turn off Geo tagging before we take a picture when we use iMessage and share it. Perfect example of fascists thinking. We the owner of the iPhone need to take responsibility for the use of our photos not overbearing Apple. Apple wants to decide how we send photos, that’s is overreached and a form of fascist thinking. Let us - the buyers of said iPhone decide to send Geo tagged photos or send photos not Geo tagged. This is a increasing troubling that # 1 Apple decided to control our choices and #2 not tell iPhone owners that they removed Geo tagging from OUR photos and denied that they [ Apple support reps] knew nothing about this issue when in fact it known.

I’ve had the same problem ever since I downloaded iOS 14. I don’t know how to fix it either.

Apple doesn’t seem to know how to fix it either. Or they don’t care to. But I really like that Geo tagging I take so many photographs I can’t remember every little place I go to.

To enable this, go to Settings, Camera and turn on Use Volume Up for Burst.
