Traveling and vacationing with your partner or family is a magical experience. That's why we often take more photos than usual when we travel—we want to capture every moment, not only to remember but also to share. However, the end result is often too many photos, making it difficult to casually browse through and relive the trip. Years later, it becomes nearly impossible to find those photos, and when we do, we have to scroll through far too many to enjoy the experience.
Why can’t I rely on GPS tagging?
If you enable GPS tagging on your phone, each photo will be tagged with the latitude and longitude coordinates where it was taken. Later, you might search for the city associated with those coordinates; unfortunately, if you visited a smaller town or neighborhood just outside the main location, those photos won't show up. For example, if you took a trip to Cancun, Mexico, but also visited nearby places like Akumal or Puerto Aventuras, searching for "Cancun" won't bring up those photos because they aren't in Cancun proper. Unless you remember the exact names of each place you visited and are willing to search multiple times, GPS data alone is not the solution.
Why can’t I just search by the dates we traveled?
Pop quiz: When you vacationed in 2010, can you remember exactly which month it was? It's challenging to recall specific dates from years ago, and searching through all your photos from that year is daunting. Like GPS tagging, relying solely on dates is not effective.
So, what is the solution?
There's always been a solution—albums! Our parents and grandparents would select their best photos from each trip and organize them into albums. Today, however, we face the challenge of sorting through hundreds of digital photos. Photo Organizer simplifies this process by making it easy to choose the best photos, remove the rest, and sort them into the appropriate albums, complete with captions that memorialize each trip. All you need to do is open an album to slowly scroll through great memories, read the captions, see where you went, and bring smiles to your faces.
What specifically do you recommend I do on Photo Organizer?
We recommend creating two albums when organizing your travel photos. Name the first album 'Travel' and the second after the specific place you visited. For example, if you visited several European countries, name the album 'Europe'. For a trip to London and surrounding cities, name it 'England.' For all your vacation photos, use the 'Travel' album and add a more specific album for each individual trip. Photo Organizer makes it easy by always displaying your recently-used albums prominently.
Sharing your travel photos?
Typically, we flood Instagram or Facebook with photos from each trip. Unfortunately, curating those perfect posts is a hassle and often too time-consuming. Photo Organizer changes this by removing the pressure of social expectations, allowing you to save the photos you like and discard the rest. When sharing, simply set your specific trip album, like 'Mexico', to share with close family members like parents and siblings. They'll appreciate having access to all the photos, and it will be helpful for them if they're planning a similar trip.
A famous quote by J.R.R. Tolkien, the author of The Lord of the Rings, says, "Not all those who wander are lost." He's absolutely right, but perhaps his next phrase would have been: "Not all those who wander are lost, but they’re definitely lost in their endless abyss of travel photos."
Don’t get lost in your endless abyss of travel photos. Make the most of them so that you can relive each experience now and into the future. Your memories will stay fresh, your desire for more travel will remain strong, and your family will appreciate the organized albums you've created for them to share in your experiences.
So go get lost traveling, and then easily find all those great memories!
