How it works
Shows the EXIF metadata that photos carry: camera or phone model, lens, capture date and time, settings such as ISO or aperture and, in many cases, the GPS location where the image was taken.
Besides inspecting that information, it lets you download a copy of the image without metadata. It is a simple way to protect your privacy before publishing or sharing a photo, since it avoids revealing where and when it was taken.
All analysis happens in your browser: the image is not uploaded to any server. If there are GPS coordinates, they are shown located on a map so you can see exactly what information you would be exposing.
Use cases
- See with which camera, lens and settings a photo was taken.
- Check whether an image includes the GPS location where it was captured.
- Remove a photo's metadata before publishing it so as not to expose private data.
- Confirm an image's real capture date and time.
Frequently asked questions
What is EXIF metadata?
It is data that the camera or phone stores inside the image file: manufacturer and model, date, shooting settings and, if it was enabled, the GPS position. It travels with the photo even though it isn't visible at a glance.
Why is it advisable to remove metadata before publishing?
Because they can reveal your exact location, the capture date and the equipment you use. Removing them before uploading a photo to social networks or public sites protects your privacy.
Do all images have EXIF metadata?
Not always. Photos from cameras and phones usually include them, but many social networks remove them on upload, and formats like PNG hardly use them. If an image shows no data, it is because it doesn't contain any.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. Reading metadata and cleaning it happen entirely in your browser; the image never leaves your device.
