Features and Improvements that have led to more than 500.000 Installations
A few weeks ago the 500.000th user has installed PhotoMap on his/her Android device! That’s awesome!!! Thank you for your interest and support!
A lot of great features have been added to PhotoMap within the last 15 months and there have been massive performance improvements. Within this post I would like to give a brief overview about the most important changes.
Please add a comment to this post if you think I should do that more often. π
New Features
β Use zoom gestures to zoom in from Folders, Days or Countries to grid views of your photos and vice versa.
β Use zoom gestures to quickly switch between Diary-Calendar-Trips, Days-Weeks-Months-Years and Countries-Places.
β Use zoom gestures to change between tile, grid, and list view.
β Swipe left or right to quickly change the day/week/month/year in grid or list view.
β Select the cover photo of a photo group by long-pressing on it.

β Detailed OpenStreetMap map with increased zoom level
β Easily switch to the next day in map view.
β Shows geo logger icon in the status bar if logging is activated
β Change the place/country names of photos in gallery view or grid view. Select multiple photos in grid view by long-pressing on one of them, and tapping on others.
β Change time zone (menu icon ‘eye’) to view days, weeks, months, trips etc. as if you were in a different country resp. time zone. This is useful, for example, to view your logged positions of a day in New Zealand after you return to Europe.
β New option in the settings to let PhotoMap scan photos and videos again. This is useful if files have changed without updating the last modified time.
Performance improvements

β Optimized for huge media collections. Tested with more than 35.000 files on internal storage and 128 GB sd card.
