About IPTCPhotoSender
[From the Developer] As a news agency photographer, I use this app in my daily work. I built it so photographers can send images to their agency instantly from an iPhone or iPad instead of a PC — to help photographers everywhere deliver breaking news faster. Shoot. Caption. Send. Straight from the field, in seconds. IPTCPhotoSender is the all-in-one wireless workflow for press and sports photographers. Version 3.0 adds a BUILT-IN FTP SERVER, so your camera sends photos straight into the app — no separate receiver app and no computer required. Add IPTC captions and credits with reusable templates, then transmit to your picture desk over FTP — all on your iPhone or iPad. RECEIVE WIRELESSLY — NEW in 3.0 - Built-in FTP server receives photos directly from FTP-capable cameras (Canon, Nikon, Sony, and more). - No tethering app or PC needed — connect the camera and start shooting. - Free camera connection settings and guides on our support site. VOICE TAGS (AUDIO MEMOS) - Voice annotations you recorded on the camera are received paired with their photos. - Play them back to check on the photo editing screen (Photos and Sent tabs). - On sending, a voice tag stays linked to its photo and is delivered with it — so your spoken notes travel with the image. IPTC METADATA & TEMPLATES - 20 IPTC fields; choose which fields are shown and in what order. - Save templates and apply them to all, selected, or individual photos. - Gap-free sequence numbering you won't find anywhere else: {Seq} (full-width {Jseq}) is assigned at the MOMENT OF SENDING, in capture-time order, and only to photos you actually transmit — no gaps, and the last number is your exact sent count. Once assigned it's locked: resend a sent photo and it keeps its number. {Edate} / {Jdate} add dates automatically. - Date/Time Created is filled automatically from capture time, with the correct time zone. - Lossless embedding — EXIF, maker notes, and image quality are preserved (no re-compression). CODE REPLACEMENTS (Photo Mechanic compatible) - Import game/event code files, or add your own codes in the app. - Type a short code and it expands to the full text on apply. - Sample codes are included to try right away. FAST EDITING & REVIEW - Large full-screen preview to recognize shots at a glance. - Swipe or tap between photos; scroll position is kept, so you can compare the same field across frames. - Pinch-to-zoom the full-resolution image to check focus. - Crop, voice-tag playback, and per-photo actions. SEND & SHARE - Send all, send only the selected photos, or send a single photo — stop any time. - RAW / original send mode for unprocessed files. - Share a photo with metadata embedded, or the original, via AirDrop / Mail / Messages. - Multiple FTP server profiles. - Sent list with resend and share. BUILT FOR THE FIELD - Screen Guard locks the screen while receiving or sending, so a stray touch won't interrupt a transfer. - If a server or connection is briefly unstable, sending auto-retries to push through (up to 4 attempts, increasing the wait each time); progress and retry status show on screen. - Export / import templates to share with colleagues. - Fully bilingual: English and Japanese.
