Your digital memories are
lost on the map.
Millions of photos—scans from family albums, DSLR shots, and digital archives—are missing GPS data. They sit in folders, disconnected from the real-world places they belong.
Without this data, the "Places" map in Apple Photos, Google Photos, and Lightroom stays empty. Your memories have no place.
Put them back where they belong.
RetroTagr is the missing link. We provide the easiest, fastest way to add precise GPS coordinates to your image files.
- Works with camera photos, scanned prints, any image
- Search any address or drag the pin to exact spots
- Download files ready for Apple Photos, Google Photos, Lightroom
Loved by archivists.
Trusted by photographers and historians to preserve their memories.
“My Canon shots from 2008 finally show up on the map. I can see exactly where each trip photo was taken. The Places view in Apple Photos is actually useful now.”
“Scanned 300 photos from my parents' albums. Now the whole family can browse them by location in Google Photos. My dad was amazed to see the old house on the map.”
“Road trip photos from 15 years ago—I couldn't remember half the places we stopped. Now I can retrace the entire journey on the map. It's like rediscovering old memories.”

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to 'geotag' a photo?
Geotagging is the process of adding geographical information to a photo's metadata. This usually means embedding latitude and longitude coordinates into the photo's EXIF data. Once tagged, software like Apple Photos, Google Photos, or Adobe Lightroom can display your photos on a map.
What kind of photos can I geotag?
You can geotag photos from your digital camera, smartphone, or even scanned images from old film prints. As long as it's a supported file format (JPEG, PNG), you can add location data to it.
How does the watermarking work on the Free plan?
For photos processed on the Free plan, we add a small, non-intrusive 'Geotagged with RetroTagr' note in the image's description/comment metadata field. This does not appear on the image itself. Upgrading to a paid plan removes this note.
Can I edit other metadata besides the location?
Yes! Our Pro plan includes a full metadata editor, allowing you to modify fields like the photo's title, description, keywords, and more. This is perfect for organizing your entire digital archive.
What happens to my photos after I upload them?
Your privacy is our top priority. Uploads are stored in encrypted cloud storage and are automatically deleted 24 hours after processing. We do not claim any ownership of your photos.
Can I process a whole folder of photos at once?
Absolutely. Our paid plans include batch processing, which lets you upload an entire album and apply the same location to all photos, or quickly tag each one individually.
