How to fix your observation with photos of multiple species: splitting an observation

The apps manage this perfectly for photographs taken with the app, but abysmally if you add the photographs to the app.

This was not always the case. The iOS app, at least, used to import location accuracy from photos added, but no longer does so. This was reported as a bug. I no longer use the app for this reason. I upload photos via the web interface to preserve the location accuracy.

(and if I remember correctly, they do not even extract the locality from the photographs, but use the location of where you are when you are using the app).

I don’t think that is the case. I believe the app does use the location of the photo, just without the location accuracy (at least, that’s how it worked when I last used it some months ago).
