Maybe you could try OSMTracker. It might use its own camera app to take shots.

I tried using the OsmAnd Audio/Video plugin to take shots using the system photo app with Location Info disabled.
Photos I take directly using the photo app have no location info. But looks like location info is still available with shots taken using the OsmAnd plugin.


I use the OsmAnd app to take waypoint photos (with GPS info) for iNaturalist. These shots don’t get uploaded to Google Photos unless I want them to. I usually copy them to my Download folder for later uploading to iNat.
So I could turn off GPS in the Photo app, and keep personal and iNat shots separate.

@KelsonV I saw the @markwitton blog post about this. Will be reading it. 🙂

@weecious @cendawanita Agree about iNaturalist. Personal experience: I recently took shots of an unidentified bee in Singapore. After uploading on iNat, it was identified as a seldom seen bee.
A local bee researcher then used my observation to locate more of the bees and he is now preparing a short paper describing them and their behaviour.
