Review title of SeanStopped working on Surface RT

This app worked great on my Surface RT until an hour later when the app could not find the level, light, and compass sensors. Thought this app would be good for work but now that it doesn't work, I will be uninstalling it.

Review title of JoshuaPro Photo Geotagging Feature DOES NOT WORK

When I take pictures (using a brand new Surface 3 LTE) absolutely zero metadata is collected. No Lat/Long, no direction, no elevation, nothing. The default camera app in windows at least collects Lat/Long! Don't waste your money on pro.
