Get detailed information about the pictures in your devices photo library with Lab!

Pros and cons of Lab app for iPhone and iPad

Lab app good for

Good UI but lacks fluidity when Im scrolling through photos in the photo browsing mode (Im using an iPhone 4 with nothing running in the back). It has a cool use but I wouldnt find myself needing to use it every single day for viewing photos. Theres, really nothing more to say.
I love this app so much... I was surprised that when downloaded, it tags the photos already in the album as well. So I now know when the pictures of my son were taken from the hospital to today :) it did crash on me too but That was the only flaw.
I primarily use this to tell me where I took a photo. It also provides other metadata. Recently updated which is nice for an old app.
Good App. Please support Event and People. I have 10 thousands photos.
Please make the program remember last opened photo, and not load default album view every time! I also want to have ability to laugh google maps when I click on a GPS pin within a program!
Happy to see that version 1.1 allows you to specify any photo in your library, not just pictures in the camera roll. Now its a fabulously cool utility!

Some bad moments

Its a great idea and I would use it alot. But keeps crashing!! :( I have almost 100s of photos on my iPhone and searching for them through metadata would be fantastic. Please update, seriously!
Nice and very helpful app until latest update.. Now it cant see pictures in camera roll nor in timeline. So its useless. Please fix it!
On both iOS 9 and iOS 10, this app appears to be completely non-functional, never even loading the interface.
Apple- stop letting app store customers get ripped off by allowing these junk apps to rip us off!! THIS APP DOES NOT SHOW A SINGLE PHOTO. ALL IT SAYS IS UNABLE TO INDEX, PLEASE USE YOUR PHOTO ALBUM. I PAID YOU SO I COULD CONTINUE TO USE MY PHOTO ALBUM. THIS IS A SCAM. DONT FEED THESE MONEY ROBBING SCAM ARTISTS! I WANT MY MONEY BACK!
POS... Doesnt work Doesnt have instructions Waste of money ...
I downloaded this app for my iPhone 4 and thought it was rather cool! Then I went to use my camera and it would no longer take a photo! I knew it had to be this app since it was the only new one I had downloaded recently. I deleted the app and still no camera. I plugged it into my computer and synced without this app and still nothing. I had to RESTORE and then load my back up to get my camera back! That is completely insane...how can Apple allow an app like this in their store? Do not buy..
