Ratings and reviews

I'm having a hard time editing my review for some reason since you responded. I too, am a developer, and would love nothing more than to rate your app well. I did indeed check the correct directory, which by default seems to be a subdirectory underneath my pictures directory. I just tried again a number of times, with a number of different photos, each with the same results. If you have any suggestions you would like me to try, I'm more than happy to help in that fashion. Best regards.

Ive spent an hour trying a few other apps and websites, all of whom purport to specialize in the removal of exif metadata. None of them worked for me, at least not on my android. Then, I saw this one had high ratings and lots of previous downloads, so I gave it a shot. Nothing is as quick and easy as this one is at removing exif metadata. It lets you choose to delete exif metadata from the original or create a copy and drops it into a designated folder of your choosing. No learning curve. Bravo!

This is not a complicated or sophisticated operation for a noob first year code monkey. There are not an unlimited number of camera softwares out there. The relevant EXIF data that people really care about removing has preset names. It should not take on the order of several seconds to edit a couple bytes in a file. This takes a dubious amount of time to perform. A curiously dubious amount of time. More than one star for actually doing the thing it claims to on the tin. That's about it.
