2 years agoI don't know any Cloud backup software, except Google Drive, which can show location info as part of metadata of photos taken from an Android phone.
OneDrive can show this location info but only when you click on the photos and select the metadata. However, OneDrive has no option to search for the location info. Hence, OneDrive has no option to find photos taken in a certain destination. Just clicking on each photo to look for the location info is actually also useless.
Perhaps, Google doesn't allow other Cloud backup software to show this important location info because this info comes from Google Maps.
Whatever, if Dropbox can make it possible to show this location info it will be the second Cloud backup software, after Google Drive, which can do this.
I believe that this feature is a must for millions of people who backup photos online. Hence, this feature might give Dropbox a strong lead in the Cloud backup software competition.
