Home/Restore GPS on Snapchat Memories export

Put Snapchat Memories back on the map
ExportSnaps/FixMyExport built a whole landing page on “no GPS.” The data was never missing — it was parked in JSON. Photo apps cannot read that JSON. We embed it.
Why the map is empty
Snapchat records latitude/longitude when location services were on. The export writes that as text on the JSON row. The JPEG/MP4 leaves with no GPS IFD. Map view looks at the file, not the sidecar.
What we write
If two JSON rows share a second and disagree on location, we omit GPS rather than guess. Filename-only dates (no JSON) will not get coordinates.
- GPSLatitude / GPSLatitudeRef
- GPSLongitude / GPSLongitudeRef
- Only when the JSON row matched that memory. We do not invent coordinates.
