Transmit your phone's location to Sony cameras over Bluetooth for geotagging

Republished from GitHub / F-Droid by the Zapstore main account.

Alpha GPS geotags your photos by transmitting your phone's GPS location to Sony Alpha cameras over Bluetooth LE — a lightweight alternative to the official apps. It also offers a Bluetooth remote shutter. **Features** - Continuous location transmission to the camera while shooting, including automatic time synchronization - Automatic reconnection when the camera is turned on, even with the app in the background and the screen off (via Android's companion device manager) - Remote shutter with a focus → shutter sequence - Optional "Always On" foreground service for devices with aggressive battery management - Multiple cameras can be paired - No account, no ads, no tracking Works with Sony cameras that support location linking via Bluetooth (as used by Imaging Edge Mobile or Creators' App).
