Do I need to be a professional photographer to use Metadata Editor?
No. Metadata Editor is designed for anyone who wants more control over their photos, from people organising a personal library to professional photographers preparing images for clients and agencies.

Is Metadata Editor an alternative to Photo Mechanic for iPhone or iPad?
