Key Features
Tagging and categorization
Tag and categorize photos by shipment number, product type, serial number, tracking number, or other tags and categories of your choosing.
If your desired tag is a barcode value, you can scan the barcode with your device’s built-in camera or integrated scanner, and it will automatically create a tag. This allows you to quickly find photos of the exact shipment or product that you need.
Easy photo capture
Take photos directly in the app, or upload photos from your mobile device. PhotoTag is available on iOS and Android, and can be used on-the-go for ultimate flexibility.
For a more rugged solution, or if you have to scan many barcodes, our PhotoTag for Rugged Android app allows you to capture photos and scan barcodes with a rugged Android device such as the Zebra TC21.
Find your photos quickly
There are several ways you can find your photos. Select tags and categories for automatic filtering, or manually search for a tag or category in the search bar. In the web app, you can also search by date or uploader.
Secure cloud storage
Your photos are always available from any mobile device and are stored on our secure PhotoTag server.
Share photos by category
Share photos from a specific category with customers or your insurance company. You can also download and share photos.
