Automatically add location and date to your lock screen photo

Is there a way to automatically insert the location and date of the photo set in the block page?

iOS does not provide a way to identify the current lock screen photo location and date, but it sounds like an interesting idea. You could suggest it to Apple personnel through their official portal for such matters:

Feedback - iPhone - Apple

Don't expect a direct answer, but we have been assured that there are staff members assigned to read and tabulate suggestions made there and forward the results to people who can make product decisions.

There are apps in the App Store that can Date Stamp the photo with the date and other metadata that you indicate. Just search for "Date Stamp Photo" at the App Store.


OR you can do it yourself by using the Markup feature in the library's Edit mode.


iOS does not provide a built-in option to display your current location directly on the iPhone Lock Screen.
