What is EXIF data?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is the metadata your camera or phone writes into a photo every time you press the shutter. This EXIF data records the technical story behind the image: the camera make and model, the lens, the aperture, shutter speed and ISO, the date and time, the orientation, and very often the exact GPS location where the photo was taken. This free EXIF viewer reads all of it and lays it out in a clear table.

What metadata do photos contain?

Beyond the core camera settings, an image file can hold a surprising amount of information: the editing software used, copyright and artist tags, colour space, thumbnail previews, and precise GPS coordinates. Photographers use this metadata to learn from their settings, while everyone else is often surprised by how much personal information, especially location, is quietly attached to the photos they share.

How to view EXIF data on any device

You do not need a desktop app or a phone plugin. Because this is an online EXIF viewer that runs in the browser, it works the same on Windows, macOS, Android and iPhone. Just open this page, drop in an image, and the metadata appears instantly. It doubles as an EXIF reader and a general image metadata viewer for JPG, HEIC, TIFF, PNG and WebP files.

View now, remove later

Checking what is inside your photos is the first step. If you would rather strip that information out before sharing, especially the GPS location, use our metadata remover to clean your images in one click. Working with iPhone photos? Our HEIC to JPG converter turns them into universally compatible files first.

Frequently asked questions

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata that cameras and phones embed inside a photo. It records details like the camera and lens, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, the date and time the photo was taken, and often the GPS location where it was captured.
Drop your image into the viewer above. It reads the file directly in your browser and shows the camera, lens, exposure settings, capture date, GPS location and all other metadata tags. There is no software to install and no sign-up.
No. This is a fully client-side EXIF viewer. Your photo is read entirely in your browser using JavaScript and is never sent to or stored on our servers, which makes it safe to inspect sensitive or private images.
Yes. If the image contains GPS coordinates, the viewer shows the latitude and longitude and gives you a link to open the exact spot on a map. If you would rather strip that information out, use our metadata remover.
You can view EXIF metadata in JPG/JPEG, HEIC (iPhone photos), TIFF, PNG and WebP files. Most metadata is stored in JPEG, HEIC and TIFF; PNG and WebP usually carry less.
Some images have no metadata to begin with: screenshots, images saved by certain apps, or photos that have already had their metadata removed. Social networks also strip EXIF on upload, so an image downloaded from them will usually be empty.
