What's On Your Phone?

[Dean Wilson]

I like to use Apps on my phone (for everything EXCEPT photo editing, I leave that for my Monitor). What are your favorite Apps related to taking photographs and what am I missing?

Here's mine and subject to change.

Google Maps/Street View
All Trails
King Compass

Weather
Clear Outside
Tides
Ventusky
Windy

Camera
Nisi Filter
Photo Pills
Canon Connect

Of course there are crossover Apps like Photo Pills

I have an LG Android phone and besides the usual apps for weather, news, travel and a few select social media ones I keep photo related apps in a folder named, Imaging.

TPE-The Photographer's Ephemeris A good app similar to Photo Pils for planning outdoor photos
Photo Pils Great for planning astrophotography or where the sun might be at any given time or day
Lightroom Sometime I shoot images with the app and process and they load to the cloud for at home use
Snapseed Great editing app for smart phone images.
Canon Camera Connect App for controlling your Canon camera from the phone
DJI Go App for my DJI Phantom 3 Advanced drone
DJI Go4 App for my DJI Air drone
GoPro Quik For editing and uploading from the GoPro Hero.

I also have a folder named "Outdoor Pursuits" for things related to the outdoors that might help with photography:

Planets App for tracking the heavens
Sky Map Another one for stars and the moon
Moon Phase Calendar
Light Pollution Map To find the dark spots
Tide and Times For when you shoot at the beach
Leaf Snap Tree identification
Picture This More tree and plant identification
Texas State Parks for state park bookings
Audubon Birding
BirdNET Birding
Merlin Birding
East Texas Wildflowers no explanation needed!

I have heard this particular App is full and full of Ads. Being in a serious relationship with a certified arborist I have an interest in such Apps.

Fairly often I do during-event edits on my phone so I can send/post already during the event. Real editing will be done on PC.

I bought a phone a long time ago for medical reasons. I'm mostly out of the woods and I'm sure that phone is around here somewhere. Maybe I should call the number....

Last weekend event, posted roughly 100 pics during the event (3 days). If I noticed good one during shooting I tagged it and then during breaks I pulled tagged pics to my phone, chose best 5-10 and did quick LR edits on phone and uploaded.

My working career involved telecommunications (no not selling Smartphones) so I belong to a few Telecom Groups.

My signature line is: "Thank you for calling Technical Support. If you feeling you have reached this number in error, please hang up and press redial."
