ExifBatch is a macOS desktop app for correcting photo dates and GPS metadata across folders of JPEG and HEIC files. It reads capture dates, locations, and pixel dimensions locally, then previews proposed changes. Users can assign one date to a batch, shift existing dates, or sequence files from a starting date and interval. GPS tools remove embedded coordinates or apply specified latitude and longitude values. Exports are copies placed in a separate folder, leaving source files out of the export destination. The app checks source hashes, reads metadata from exported images, and records results in a portable JSON manifest. ExifBatch says exported photos retain their original image type and pixel dimensions. Images, filenames, dates, coordinates, and manifests stay on the Mac and are not uploaded to Shipmac. The first release does not use reverse geocoding or mapping providers. It costs 24.00 USD as a one-time purchase for one Mac, requires macOS 14 or later, and includes free launch updates. There is no free plan.
