APP DESCRIPTION IS A LIE, DO NOT TRUST – PhotoTime - automatic face tagged gallery with smart keywords search for organizing your everyday moment Review

This app won't find your photos on Flickr. I connected it, and, nothing. It insists on access to your local photos on your device though... it won't let you open the app without it. Then it begins doing... what? Is it automatically uploading your local photos to a server somewhere? It seems like it might be. Who knows? They claim your photos are anonymous, but do you trust a company that puts lies right in the app description? A very spooky experience. It doesn't seem to do what it says it can do, and it's not clear about what it actually is doing. It's definitely reaching into my private photos on my device, though, even though I don't want it to. As soon as you open it, it immediately says it's "sorting the faces in your photos"... anything that starts processing my photos as soon as I open it, with absolutely no instruction from me to do so, is untrustworthy. I turned off "automatic processing: in the settings, but it seems like it's still doing it. I think. I have no idea what's going on with it. Yep! I just got a notification that "tagging paused" while i was typing this! Even though I told it in the settings NOT to tag! Then it's also asking to connect to my facebook even though I didn't want it to, and asking for my contacts... this thing is an octopus, it wants a lot of information, without being clear with me about what it's doing or giving me any clear way to stop it. This does not seem like an experience I want to have, and I resent downloading an app and finding out it doesn't even do the most important thing (for me) that its app store description said it does. Deleting from my iPad immediately. Download and open this pp at your own risk.
