Although it is true that if we have a minimum amount of images stored on our computer, we will be able to manage them efficiently, the problem appears when the photographs begin to accumulate. There comes the point when the mere thought of editing their information to organize them exhausts us, and it is then when it is convenient to take advantage of an application developed for these cases. Among them, JPhotoTagger is undoubtedly one of the most interesting right now.

And although there are several that could be recommended in these cases, we wanted to stop, especially in this service, because it is a complete tool that serves to edit all the metadata of our images. As we mentioned, this type of utility is exciting in thinking about the subsequent management or organization of our contents, in this case, photographs.

Operation

First, when editing this metadata, JPhotoTagger offers support for all types of information, considering EXIF, XMP, or IPTC formats, to mention some of them. This is a great advantage considering that other programs do not have this level of support, and as a consequence, they force us to have to download plug-ins, etc.

Apart from that, we appreciate that this software has a system that allows us to enter data almost automatically, saving a lot of time, especially when you are repeating information. It can also detect when tags are being modified or updated, renewing the data in all the images with this information.

Likewise, internal browsing within JPhotoTagger is another of the strong points of this service, taking into account that we will be able to go through all the images stored in our PC through filters so that locating them is much easier. You will be able to organize them starting from some of their data in particular and looking for only those with the same name, editing them later in seconds.

Similarly, we believe this program has some differential elements concerning the competition that we should not consider, such as a section allowing us to view thumbnails of your images. Thanks to this, while we browse through the photographs on our computer, we can preview their content, avoiding the common confusion in these cases.

And if all this is not enough, you have to consider that JPhotoTagger can synchronize its operation with some of the best applications of today as far as image editing is concerned, as is the case of Photoshop. If you usually use this tool, you can join both of them so that the metadata editing accompanies the content editing.

To take into account.

This software is compatible with practically all standard image formats, among which we can mention some such as JPEG, TIFF, RAW, and DNG, although there are many more that we can process and edit with its features. Once again, this is not a minor detail since this way; we will skip the always annoying process of converting files between formats to be able to edit them later.

Regarding JPhotoTagger's user interface, we have to say that it is much more functional than pretty, considering that it doesn't have too many colors or modern shapes. Still, it does have a straightforward internal navigation system. It has three well-differentiated sections: a file browser, a display of those thumbnails, and finally, all the utilities that have to do with tag editing.

The best

If it comes to highlighting what we liked most about this application, we have to think in the first instance of the Preview of the images, as this will prevent us from getting confused between files and losing time when editing them. On the other hand, the possibility of filtering the images both by some of their data and by their name allows us to find the content we want in milliseconds.

The worst thing

Although it is software with not many shortcomings, you have to consider that it may not be the most intuitive in its segment. This has to do primarily with its interface, which is somewhat outdated and could be improved. Other than that, we have not found any other weaknesses in this application that fulfills its tasks.

Rating

In summary, we can say that JPhotoTagger is up to what we could expect when we download an application of this type since it allows us to edit the metadata of a considerable amount of images quickly. Although it has some aesthetic aspects that could be improved, its potential is not in doubt.
