Learn how to add the geographical information and position on your photos on Sony Xperia Z. Turn on geotagging to add the approximate geographical location (a geotag) to photos when you take them. The geographical location is determined either by wireless networks (mobile or Wi-Fi networks) or GPS technology.
When Geotag icon appears on the camera screen, geotagging is turned on but the geographical position has not been found. When Geotag Position icon appears, geotagging is turned on and the geographical location is available, so your photo can get geotagged. When neither of these two symbols appear, geotagging is turned off.
To turn on geotagging
- Activate the camera.
- Tap Settings icon, then tap Geotagging > On.
- Tap OK to agree to enable GPS and/or wireless networks.
- Check the options that you want to select under Location services.
- After you confirm your settings, press Back button to return to the camera screen.
- If Geotag position icon appears on the camera screen, your location is available and your photo can get geotagged. If not, check your GPS and/or wireless network connection.
