iPad solution
« on: May 26, 2023, 12:45:47 AM »
I know PM is not yet available for iPad but hope it will ;-)
I've been searching for a while for a replacement app but couldn't find anything.

Did someone found a solution ?

Main goal is to travel light and backup (iPad + 2 SSD). No need to edit etc...just cull and add metadata template and stars.

There are a few IPTC editors for iPadOS, but they all need the photos to be placed in the Apple Photos Library, which I do not use.

I use ShutterSnitch, which has 'actions' in which you can make IPTC templates and file renaming templates which can be applied to photos manually or automatically when they are imported into a ShutterSnitch collection. IPTC info cannot be written into raw files, only jpegs but XML sidecar files are created instead.
Then I use iSH, which is an x86 Linux emulator into which I installed exiftools to write the sidecar files into the raw files.

Editing of the photos is done in CapetureOne for iPad. Since the CaptureOne storage on the iPad is a CaptureOne pro session, it can copied to a desktop/laptop for further editing.

Not a simple all in one solution, but it gets the job done.
