Ever since I upgraded to iOS 14, my iPhone does not show the geotag location at the top of each picture. Only the date and time it was taken. My camera settings are correct and my location settings are accurate, but it won’t show the location on the photos. The photos I have that were taken before installing iOS 14 show the location and geotag still. But any picture taken since the upgrade does not show the location.
I talked with Apple Support and this issue is now fixed on my IPhone 11 Pro, OS 14.01
You have to go into Privacy again, and then toggle the Location off and then back on. Then the camera icon will now appear under Privacy, so then click on Camera, then select allow location while using device. That fixed it. Before the Camera icon wasn't appearing under Privacy. So, toggling location off and then on again somehow reset it.
hello Apple team, is this bug fixed already? My phone is still 13.6 version but my geotag stop working since 2019, i thought this will be fixed already.
I`m on 14.5 and tagging is not working. It so frustarting.. Network setting back to default, privacy as well. Any idea what could be a problem ?
I think iOS 14 likes overgeneralizing the location so it looks “better” and more “organized” when you’re scrolling the photo album. That’s why I miss the one in iOS 12. It looks so much better
Aight Juz checked and the problem is resolved on my device and it’s getting back to precise location.
How do you downgraded to a previous version??
Still not working in iOS 14.5 but geotag locations appear correctly in iOS 12 and when viewed via web browser. What an embarrassing bug for Apple. Has anyone received any new info from the Support?
This problem exist since iOS 13.
so i am not sure that Apple engineer work on this issue.
the problem is that there is more and more issues never resolved.
I totally agree with you on this.
It is either a new, ill-considered feature of iOS 14 or a bug. Several users reported the same problem. Currently we can only see the location of new photos, when we swipe the photo up, when viewing it enlarged and look below the photo in the Details section below the photo. Photos, we have taken before the iOS 14 upgrade are still showing the location in the title, but new photos or newly imported older photos are only showing the date and time in the title.
You may want to let Apple know, that this is inconvenient. Here is a feedback form: Photos for iOS and iPadOS - Feedback - Apple
Small tip, in my case, discovered now about this issue. The only photos geotagged are the ones inside the map area in “my place”, the under menu inside “system service” - “significant locations”. Even if the toggle is disabled, “my place” is the area on the map around my house. In that position, the photos are correctly geotag.
That confirms the problem with the servers. When you import older photos now, properly tagged with GPS, the location names will also not be displayed in the titles, because Photos does no longer retrieve the names of the locations from Apple's servers. Instead you are seeing the address of the place below the photos. The reverse geocoding is still working, but Photos does no longer assign a short name to the place.
You can however put any name you like for the location into the caption line above the map.
Do you think Apple could fix this kind of issue? It’s not a big problem but maybe sonething goes wrong with the servers. Only “my place”, under menu of “significant locations” goes well as I wrote before.
I just tried my iPhone 7 that has iOS 14.0.1 and it still is not geotagging photos. I am still running iOS 13.7 on my iPhone 11 Pro Max and the geotags pop up immediately after snapping a photo. I am going to stick with iOS 13.7 on my iPhone 11 Pro Max until this issue with iOS 14 is completely resolved.
I saw the location in the title for some of my imported photos from yesterday, only for photos that have been taken in National Parks. It may be specific for some locations.
A photo taken in Yellowstone Park is now showing the location, a Photo taken in Tanzania, a photo taken in Spain, but no photos taken in the cities.
Well I'm starting to think it's not a bug, but another amazing "inovation" from Apple...I mean iOS 14 is 2 weeks old and they cant fix something that worked well since iOS 10..C'mon it's just not serious. And of course 13.7 is not signed anymore.... Another great move by Apple. I just can't understand why they removed somethig so useful
Geotag on photos not working since iOS 14 upgrade.
