About the Image Metadata Viewer

Every phone or camera photo quietly carries a diary entry: device, timestamp, lens settings, and often GPS coordinates. This viewer surfaces all of it in a readable layout, so you can verify a photo origin or check what a picture reveals before sharing.

Privacy is the point: the file never leaves your device, yet you still get the full picture, including a map link when coordinates are present.

Where it helps most

What the hidden data reveals.

Learning photography

Photographers use EXIF data as a learning tool, reverse-engineering the settings behind shots they admire: aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length.

Verifying listings

Buyers checking a used camera listing can verify the shutter count claims against the file data. Numbers do not bluff the way sellers sometimes do.

Authenticating images

Journalists and researchers authenticate when and where an image was captured. The embedded timestamp and GPS tags are hard evidence, not hearsay.

Privacy eye-opener

Many people do not realize their phone stamps home coordinates into every picture they text to strangers or post on marketplace listings. This viewer is an eye-opener.

Reading it right

Clean results, organized clearly.

Clean means stripped

A photo with no metadata, common after social media platforms strip it, simply shows as clean. That is useful information too.

Organized results

The parsed results are organized into readable sections: capture details like device model and timestamp, exposure settings, and location data if GPS tags exist.

Doubly private

The whole point is revealing sensitive embedded data, so it is parsed locally and shown to you and only you.

Image Metadata Viewer: private by design

No account, no upload, no trace. The metadata is shown to you and only you.
