Remember those old disposable Kodak cameras your family used to take on vacations? And how each of them has a timestamp in the bottom right corner of the printed image? Good times, huh?
Not really. For the most part, those timestamps are ugly. While the data, especially the dates are useful, the presentation is not very good. So when we go digital, the timestamp, along with other EXIF data such as GPS coordinates embedded in the data file itself, is not visible directly on the image.

If you’re smart, you can easily figure out stuff like this, but the problem is it’s not easily viewable by say, your grandma. You need EXIF viewer apps for that.
If you need to send a photo to someone with a timestamp, or just want to timestamp a photo for your own collection, let me walk you through two apps for iOS and Android that will do this for you. Friend.

DateStamper for iOS
DateStamper does pretty much all of the things on the box. There are two ways to use the app to stamp images. With the app itself or its Photos app extension.
But first, let’s go in Setting and customize what you want the stamp to look like. By default, it just marks the date in gray, a color that doesn’t stand out at all. You can add time, change the font to letterpress, and change the color to something like orange if you like.
From the app, go to the album, select the photo you want to stamp, tap ALRIGHTauthenticate and you’re done.
Beware: DateStamper will edit the current photo, it won’t make a copy.
To do this from the Photos app, select a photo, tap Editortap the menu button in the top left corner and turn on Stamper Day. Now from the same place choose Stamper Dayauthenticate and the selected photo is stamped.
The app itself is free but you are limited to 20 photo stamps at a time. You can remove this limitation by paying for an in-app purchase of $0.99.
Free PhotoStamper for Android
The Android app we’re using, PhotoStamper Free is a pretty basic app.
Touch Exhibition room and select the photos you want to import. Then tap Tick and confirm the directory to which the processed images will be exported. You are free to change this directory. Once you hit ALRIGHTprocess will be performed.
Go to the folder to find the image with the date and time stamp embedded in the bottom right corner.
To change the layout or position of the stamp, go to the center tab and edit.
