HoudahGeo 5.2

Houdah Software has released HoudahGeo 5.2 with added support for Lightroom Classic CC (see “Why Lightroom CC Is a Big Step Up from Apple’s Photos,” 15 December 2017) and improved performance for bulk changes. The photo geotagging app also fixes a bug that prevented metadata from being read from the Lightroom catalog, updates the XMP MetadataDate tag when writing EXIF/XMP tags, writes timestamp data in IPTC metadata when exporting to EXIF/XMP so Apple’s Photos can see the updated timestamp, and ensures that maps maintain the current zoom level when switching between locations.
