Overview
When you take photos with your location enabled, your iPhone will pin them to a map, which you can use to see everywhere you have been.
If you have Location Services enabled on your iPhone Camera and photos, every picture you take will have a location saved to its metadata.

Key Takeaways
- Easily find photos if you remember where you took them.
