EXIF viewer

Find out what a photo says about itself: where and when it was taken, with which phone or camera and which settings. The file is read in your browser - and if you do not like what you see, remove it with one click.

What you will see

Camera make and model, lens, exposure time, aperture, ISO and focal length; the date and time the photo was taken and last edited; the software used; author and copyright fields; serial numbers where the camera records them; and the GPS position, altitude and direction. Fields that can identify you or a place are highlighted.

Where the GPS position comes from

Phones write the location into a photo when the camera app has location access. On iPhone that is Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → Camera; on Android, the camera app's own settings. Turning it off stops new photos being tagged - existing ones keep their location until you remove it.

How your files stay private

Most free converters upload your file, process it on their server and send the result back - so a copy of it passes through somebody else's machine. This page does all of the work in your browser instead. The files you choose are read into memory on your own device, processed there and handed back as a download; none of their contents is transmitted. You can switch off Wi-Fi after the page has loaded and it keeps working.

Frequently asked questions

Is the photo uploaded to read the EXIF?

No. The metadata is read by JavaScript in your browser. The "Open in map" link only sends the coordinates to OpenStreetMap if you click it.

Why does my photo show no EXIF data?

Many apps and websites strip it - screenshots, photos saved from social networks and most messenger images have none. That is good for privacy.

Can I edit the EXIF data?

This page can view and remove it. Editing individual fields is not supported.

Which formats are supported?

JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC and AVIF. TIFF and RAW camera files are not.
