GeoStamp asks for the camera permission to take photos and the location permission only to build the stamp. Without location, the camera still works — the stamp carries date and time only. To change permissions: Android Settings › Apps › GeoStamp Camera › Permissions. Choose "Precise location" for accurate coordinates; "approximate" lowers accuracy and is labeled on the stamp.
The status chip shows location quality: Ready (green) means fresh, accurate data; Weak (amber) means low accuracy or stale data — age and accuracy stay visible so you decide; Unavailable means no location yet. GPS locks faster outdoors and with high-accuracy location mode on. You can always take the photo — the shutter never waits for GPS.
Make sure there is enough storage (the app warns when space is low). Photos are saved to the Pictures/GeoStamp album in your device gallery. If processing fails, GeoStamp never deletes your capture before a safe copy exists, and offers to save the photo without a stamp. If it keeps happening, report it via the contact below with your device model and app version.
The in-app gallery only shows photos created since the latest install — an Android storage limitation we accept so the app never has to ask for access to your whole gallery. Your old photos are not gone: they remain in your device gallery under Pictures/GeoStamp.
