Hello Donna,
I only just began following this thread but my experience is that if I want
VoiceOver to announce the name/description of any photo in my Photo Library, I
must first copy the photo to my PC, then, name the photo or give it a
description from within its properties area. I think I use the Title tag.
Now, keep in mind that I do this on a Windows PC but, when I sync the photo
back to my phone, the title/description is usually read, as I land on the photo.
There are some exceptions, however. In my case, I have 4 or so photos that
were taken on my iPhone 3GS. NO matter how I manipulate the tags, VoiceOver
will only read the date that the photo was taken. Again, I'm using a Windows
PC to do this so cannot speak to the mileage you will get on a Mac. I suspect
that tagging the photos in iTunes will be much more successful than by doing so
using an external application as is the case when using Windows.
Good Luck,
Mark

Subject: Re: Apple's response re renaming photos
Hi Kate,
ET explained why the labels don't sync. If you do the two-finger double tap,
your just giving it a new VO label, not actually renaming the photo.
Your approach would probably work, but I'm also going to play around with
renaming them in iTunes.
Cheers,
Donna

I guess the other way to do this would be to up/download the photo or video to
your computer one by one, so you know what they are, and then rename them on
the mac.
Also, the custom labels using the double tap with two fingers don’t seem to
synch over devices here. so if I label a pic or vid on my phone, when I put
them on the mac, the labels go away, sadly.

Hi all,
Well, sounds like at this point there isn't a good way to do this. I assume
by custom labels Apple means the two-finger double tap, though if anyone knows
differently please let us all know. Their response is below.
Cheers,
Donna
Thank you for your email. At this time, Custom Labels are the best option for
renaming your photos and videos on iOS. We have passed your feedback along to
the appropriate group.
Sincerely,
Apple Accessibility
