EXIF Viewer
View photo metadata (camera model, GPS, date taken) and download a clean copy with all metadata stripped for privacy.
🔍 The Story Behind the Pixels
Every digital photograph carries a hidden memory. Beyond the colors and shapes, EXIF data records the precise moment of capture—the GPS coordinates of where you stood, the exact shutter speed, and even the model of the lens you used. It is the technical diary of a camera's soul.
While these details are fascinating for photographers, they can be a privacy risk when shared online. Our viewer lets you inspect these hidden tags and, more importantly, strip them away before you share your photos with the world.
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data is metadata embedded in digital photos by cameras and smartphones. It includes camera settings (aperture, shutter speed, ISO), GPS location, date/time, device model, and more. While useful for photography, EXIF data can be a privacy concern when sharing photos online.
Our EXIF viewer lets you inspect and optionally remove metadata from your photos. All processing happens locally — your images never leave your device, making it safe to check metadata on sensitive or personal photos.
