Frequently asked questions about Ubimage
Does Ubimage work without internet?
Yes, it works completely offline. Geotagged photos stored on your phone will display on the landscape without any network connection.
Can I use this with videos?
Yes, geotagged videos are placed on the landscape next to photos and play in place at their shooting location.
How accurate is the altitude measurement?
On iPhone 12 and later, Ubimage reads both GPS and the barometric altimeter, keeping whichever has lower error. It displays the margin of error and source (barometer or GPS) for each reading.
