Reviews for Solocator - GPS Field Camera

This app is just OK, inconsistent photo attachment when trying to share (email) which is very frustrating. It often fails to identify the industry pack which was an additional purchase making it a complete waste of money. It also changes settings on it’s own often so if your not checking everytime you take a photo […]

Only one complaint. The response time for the camera capturing a photo with this app is often delayed. I use this app for jobsite inspection work, and too often do I upload my photos and find photos of the ground instead of what I actually tried to capture or missing photos I know that took. […]

Required for my job, but still missing a lot of basic features. The inability to change where pictures are saved is a major headache, and the dev STILL hasn’t implemented in over 2 years. The “pro” features (paid) break half the time if I don’t have signal anyway. Somehow this is a popular app in […]

I have been using this app in the Australian construction industry for many years now, I have tried a few others, but none even come close to Solocator, it really works well for me with the GPS location, the ability to add descriptions to each photo of works progressing is un-matched, but above all is […]

It works, but could do with some polishing. The biggest nuisance to me is the lack of a manual focus option. I’m using this app to record flora in the field and the travelling autofocus drives me insane! Also my app tries to upload photos to the cloud on mobile data, even though I have […]

Great app for the price, but needs improved zoom and focus capability to make it more useful (focus can be slow or stick, can’t zoom in enough for close ups, or out far enough for wider views). A panoramic/360 photo option would be nice too. I’m a pro land surveyor in California. We use pics […]

I use this app on my iPhone and found it to be very useful. However I’ve added an Android phone to my survey equipment, paid for the App and discovered it is very jerky and sluggish after going into the settings page. Is this just me or a known issue? Would like to get this […]

Very disappointed with this app. I wanted to use this to create an inventory of fixture and fittings. When the picture was taken, then the issues started. I was unable to auto rotate or save to Google drive. Every few seconds it was performing a GPS update which rapidly drains your battery. I had to […]

after buying app to get street address have to pay additional R129 …. buying this app is misleading… don’t recommend

it use to be a good app, however the constant freezing and the app jumping when you exit the photo into the gallery to the previous days photos is almost rendering the app unusable. I also have to exit the app a dozen times a day due to the screen freezing. I paid for the […]

I bought industry pack and used liked but some how lost? Found directions said uninstall go to play store reinstall and industry pack should come back did not. and it cost $.99 to find out it didn’t work.

Randomly stops exporting photos to camera roll, won’t export them manually either, tried every single troubleshooting option and have to resort to screenshotting photos from the app itself.

The camera lighting auto adjusts when you don’t want it to, causing terribly lit photos, with no way to turn off the auto lighting adjustment feature. Also, the camera quality sucks. Garbage app. Don’t purchase, save your money.

This app is easy to use once you understand what all the features do and how to get them to work. Their tech support is also amazing very informative, knows what they are doing and how to help, and will give you an immediate response to fix any of the problems that might occur.

I love the direction/location tagging & being able to title my own photos & add notes. This makes it very easy to import photos to a computer as the files are named by the written title I gave and time taken. I’m docking stars because of poor photo and zooming quality (I often have to […]

Does the advertised job of overlaying photos with location and direction data. It also embedded exif data just fine. The photos I took imported into Google Maps with no problem. It’s a little buggy, though. For a while, it took two photos without the overlay for each one photo with the overlay. Also, it turned […]

I have recently discovered several problematic issues with this app. I am not sure if they are due to “operator error”. I will preface my further review by saying that I am using the “free” version so perhaps I need to purchase the upgrade? I have had it loaded on my phone for quite some […]

This app used to be so easy to use. I don’t know what happened or when, but it has changed. The options on the photos change whenever, the fields in the csv do not populate when you fill them in, the photos don’t separate into albums and uploading the photos has gotten incredibly difficult. I […]

The basic app is really useful. However, I also purchased the Industry Pack because it is supposed to allow you to export kml, and similar data, but I can’t figure out how to do that. Furthermore, I can’t find a guide for this product, which would be really useful. Edit: John, the developer first this […]

Great concept, extremely buggy and inconsistent execution, especially for the paid profe. Photos do not upload as advertised, some will, but not all. The naming convention and inability to upload photos has resulted in multiple photos with the same name when im actually able to connect my phone to the computer to upload. Also, the […]
