Practical guide
Rebuild your travel history from photo locations
Photo locations can help reconstruct a missing travel timeline, especially when trips span years. They are clues, not primary border evidence. Metadata may be absent, edited, duplicated or shifted by timezone, so compare suggested stays with passports, bookings and authority records.
Workflow
Work through the record.
- Allow photo access only if you want to use this method.
- Group location-bearing photos into likely stays on your device.
- Review timezone boundaries, duplicate images and missing periods.
- Compare suggested dates with passports, tickets, bookings and official records.
- Edit uncertain dates and mark any gap that still needs evidence.
Privacy impact
RoamCount processes photo-location suggestions on the device. Photo access is optional. Review the system permission before granting it, and use manual entry if you prefer not to provide access.
Known limits
Screenshots and shared images can carry misleading dates. Camera clocks can be wrong. A photo proves neither border crossing nor immigration status, and days with no photos still need another record.
