About

I'm a retired 79-year-old gearhead with a love of anything with an internal combustion engine. Over the decades, I've lost count of how many times I spotted an interesting vehicle in a field, barn, or forest — no time to stop, so I'd make a mental note to come back later. When "later" arrived, I could remember the vehicle but never where I'd seen it. After the last time it happened, I went looking for an app to fix this. There wasn't one — so I built it myself. Only problem: I'm a gearhead, not a computer guy. Long story short, I built PhotoLog using MIT App Inventor with an AI assistant (Claude). A year later, it's live on Google Play.

Photo_Log - Snap it, tag it, find it again — searchable field photos

PhotoLog's persistent tag feature lets you label a site, event, or visit once, every photo taken until you change the tag inherits it automatically, so a full inspection or day's finds can be pulled up in seconds by tag or date. Photos are also GPS-tagged and time-stamped, with typed or dictated notes added on the spot. One tap exports everything to a polished, shareable HTML field report, a level of organization most camera or notes apps simply don't offer.
