Image Metadata Viewer

See what your photos are quietly carrying.

Everything is processed on your device. Nothing you upload or type is sent to a server, and nothing is stored.

Image Metadata Viewer online

Photos carry far more than the picture. Most cameras and phones embed the model, lens, exposure settings, the exact time — and often the GPS coordinates where the shot was taken. This tool shows you all of it, and tells you how to strip it before you share.

How to use image metadata viewer

  1. Add a photo

    Drop in a JPG or PNG. Nothing is uploaded — the file is read on your device.

  2. Read the details

    Camera, lens, exposure, date and location are grouped separately, alongside the basic file facts.

  3. Strip it if you need to

    If the photo carries location data you do not want to share, the tool links you straight to a converter that removes it.

Frequently asked questions

What is EXIF data?

A block of information your camera writes into the image file: the make and model, lens, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, the date and time, and — if location services were on — the GPS coordinates of where you were standing.

Can people see my location from a photo I post?

It depends where you post it. Most large social networks strip metadata when you upload, but sending the original file by email, messaging app or cloud link usually preserves it intact, GPS included.

How do I remove metadata from a photo?

Re-encoding the image drops it. Running the photo through Compress Image or Image Converter here produces a clean copy with no EXIF block, since the metadata is not carried into the new file.

Why does my image show no EXIF data?

Screenshots, images saved from the web, and anything already processed by a social network usually have none — it was either never written or already stripped. PNG files rarely carry EXIF at all.

Is my photo uploaded to read the metadata?

No, and that matters for this tool in particular. The file is parsed in your browser, so a photo with GPS coordinates in it never gets transmitted anywhere.
