Metadata provides an easy way for photographers to extract metadata from photos. You’re able to choose any photo from your camera roll or iCloud Drive. Information like the photo’s dimensions, DPI, size, location, time, altitude, device info, and even weather will be neatly displayed across multiple cards. All of this information can be shared with just a tap.

Mini-U: Mosaic is a vibrant and colorful entertainment app that will help your child work on their motor skills. Choose between small (9x9) and large (18x18) pin boards. Then select a pattern or image you want to recreate with your child and get to work. A thumbnail of the pattern or image is always readily available on the left side of the screen. Tap a pin on the right side to choose a matching color, and tap on open holes on the board to place the pins. You’re able to get a preview of what the board should look like by tapping on the thumbnail, or you can leave an overlay on the board for even more help. Finished patterns and images can be saved to your iPad’s library. The app includes freehand modes, the ability to upload patterns for others to download, and 23 built-in patterns and images.

The app also includes support for multiple children or students, and password protection.
