I took some pics with my iPhone while playing a couple courses in the Denver area this week. When I look at the pics in Photos, the app gives the location (which is fine--I don't have location turned off), but it gives the wrong name to one of the courses (Fox Hollow; it says I was at Rocky Point Golf Course).

I tried to find a solution through Google, but most of the hits I got were for where the phone had the gps location wrong.

Here, the gps location is correct (I verified from the metadata into google maps), and it lists the city correctly (OK, should be Lakewood CO instead of Denver, but close enough).

Anybody know how to edit the metadata or tags in Photos on the iPhone? (I don't think there even is a Rocky Point Golf Course in the Denver area.) I'm using an iPhone 6s with iOS 11.3.1.

Thanks.

On the phone? I don’t know if you can search the App Store.

But even then I’m pretty sure the EXIF data is just the GPS coordinates so Apple Maps may have the name wrong. Maybe that course was named that a few years ago and it just hasn’t been updated.

This is just the native iPhone app, so I'm not really trying to find another app to fix it (if that's what you meant).

Yeah, I was wondering about stuff like that, but it looks like the course opened as Fox Hollow in 1993. And Apple Maps on the iPhone has it listed as Fox Hollow.  (Same thing on the Apple Maps app on my MBP.) So I don't know how it's getting Rocky Point.

So that's why I was looking for a quick way (if anyone knew of one) to just edit the Collections/Moments in the phone.
