Re: Problems with GPS tagging with new version of camera connect (R5)

I gave up on real time geotagging with an app for the reasons commonly cited.

But I'm wondering if that's the still the only way to use the app to geocode. On an Olympus one keeps the Oly app on and tracking on the phone, but with NO connection to the camera. Then, later, one connects to the camera and syncs, which writes to the images IN the camera. Basically like one does on a computer and a synced GPX file as in Lr, but in the camera. I found it a great compromise, since real time is often unreliable for me.

Or has anybody developed a non Canon app that can do that?
