Is there an App for the iPad that will let you add a brief description to the photo and have it displayed on the iPad? I have done an unsuccessful search to find an answer to this.
iPad, iOS 4.3.3
Have you looked at Photo-Sort for iPad?

I had tried unsucessfully to find Photo-Sort in the App Store. Thanks for sending this. I believe it is the solution to my problem.
You're welcome. Glad I could help.
Sorry to say, this did not solve my problem. This app lets you add a title to a photo, but it only shows on the iPad in the Photo-Sort app. and not elsewhere, such as mail. The instructions also left a lot to trial and error to find out the correct procedure to follow. I would not recommend this app.
Try Photo Shack Pro. It allows Titles and Comments, and will display Titles during slideshows or swiping through photos full-screen. Not sure about emails, but you could email the developer about it.
Will Photo Shack Pro let you add a different title to each photo and them let you view the titled photos on the iPad?
Yes. The titles show up automatically as the title on the navigation bar when in full screen viewing. You have to tap the "Comments" button to view the comments.
Thanks for your help. I'll give it a try.
Thanks for the tip about Photo Shack. I was wondering whether the titles would be transferred to your computer when you sync the pictures. Do you know?
You can export Titles, Comments, Star Ratings, etc. along with your photos as embedded IPTC metadata using Photo Shack Pro's "export" feature. The "export" feature doesn't use the iTunes "sync" process. It uses iTunes' "File Transfer" feature instead, which lets you drag files from your iPad onto your computer.
For me the question is not whether I can export descriptions etc added with Photo Shack, but whether it can get the ones I have added in iPhoto on the Mac. All my work is done on the Mac, and I only want to ust the iPad and iPhone to show the photos, with descriptions.
Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
App for the iPad to show photo description?
