Review and edit your metadata: add or remove a keyword on every photo

You can read and change every title, description and keyword before you export. Fix one photo, or add or remove a keyword on the whole project in a click.

Two ways to review

01 Grid All your photos as thumbnails with the editor beside them. Click one photo to edit its titles, description and keywords, or select many to change keywords on all of them. Shift+click selects a range, Ctrl/⌘+click adds one, Ctrl/⌘+A selects all.
02 One by one One photo at a time on its own screen. Use the arrow keys to move on. Click Save, or Save & Next (Ctrl+Enter). Changes also save when you move to another photo, and a counter shows how many are unsaved.

Add a keyword you forgot to every photo

  1. 1
    Get ideas, or type your ownIn the Grid, open the Keywords tab. Type a keyword and press Enter, or paste a comma-separated list. For ideas, click “Suggest more keywords with AI”.
  2. 2
    Click an idea to add it to all photos in the projectThe ideas are free and are written from the titles, descriptions and keywords you already have. Keywords your files already have are left out of the list. No image is sent for this step.
  3. 3
    Photos that are full are skippedThe keyword is added after the ones a photo already has, up to 49 per photo (the Adobe Stock limit). A photo already at 49 is skipped, and PhotoTager tells you how many.

Other fixes

01 Remove a keyword from many photos Select the photos (Select All for the whole project) and remove the keyword. It is taken off every selected photo that has it.
02 Regenerate one file for free Click Regenerate on a photo to get a fresh title, description and keywords for that one file. It costs no credits. It needs the file’s original or, for photos, its thumbnail, so a video cannot be regenerated once its original is deleted after 7 days.
03 Edits are saved as you go Titles, descriptions and keywords save automatically in the Grid, and your export uses the saved text.

The checks while you edit

01 Keyword counts The Keywords tab shows a meter for Adobe Stock (49 keywords), one for Shutterstock and Alamy (50), and one for iStock & Getty Images (50).
02 Adobe Stock title meter The Adobe Stock title shows a meter: Adobe recommends under 70 characters, the maximum is 200, and Alamy keeps the first 150.
03 Check tab A Check tab can show what is worth a look before you submit a photo.

Questions

How do I add one keyword to hundreds of photos?

Click an AI idea in the Keywords tab. It is added to every photo in the project at once. Photos that already have the keyword are left alone.

Do the AI keyword ideas cost credits?

No. They are free. Only text is used, not your images, and keywords your files already have are left out.

Can I remove a keyword from all my photos?

Yes. Select the photos you want, using Select All for the whole project, and remove the keyword. Only the selected photos change.

Does Regenerate cost anything?

No. Regenerating one file is free. It makes a new title, description and keywords for that file, so edits you made to it are replaced.

What if a photo already has 49 keywords?

Adding a keyword to the whole project skips it, because 49 is the Adobe Stock limit. You are told how many photos were skipped.
