In a previous post, 7 great features, we discussed that you might be missing out in your Amazon Prime account. Today, I will be diving deeper into the one feature, Amazon Photos. Specially, how to edit the date and time of your photos. Sometimes you upload photos and the date is incorrect. Other times, you add older photos or scan in prints that do not contain a date and time. This article will explain how to fix these incorrect dates.

Browse to Amazon Photos and select one or more photos that you want to edit to the same date. You can accomplish this in a few ways. One is by selecting all photos on the same date.

The other option is to hover over a photo to show the checkbox to check in the upper left-hand corner.

  1. I have older photos taken from a Sony Mavica in 2001. These images have a time and date stamp for date created AND date modified (same date in 2001). When I upload the pictures from my Macbook Pro via the app, Amazon Photos does NOT retain the created date and places ALL 1000+ photos in the NO DATE date filter.

    Any ideas?
