Compass that points you to a photo's EXIF location

In plain words

This free iPhone app reads location data from geotagged photos and uses a compass to guide users back to where images were taken. It works with photos from the Photos app, Messages, and other sources containing GPS information. The app is designed for people who want to return to specific locations—such as foraging spots, parked cars, or hiking landmarks—by accessing the photo's embedded location data.
