FAQ

Common questions about EXIF data.

What is EXIF data?
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata stored inside a photo by the camera or phone that took it. It can include the date and time, GPS coordinates, camera make and model, lens, exposure settings, and more.
Is this EXIF viewer really free?
Yes. There are no accounts, no limits, and no upsells. The tool reads files entirely in your browser, so your photo never leaves your device.
Why doesn't my photo have GPS data?
Most cameras only embed GPS coordinates when location services are enabled. Many social platforms (Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp) also strip GPS data on upload. If GPS is missing, that's likely why.
Which formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG, HEIC, and TIFF. Most phone photos work out of the box. RAW files (CR2, NEF, ARW) work for tags exposed by the EXIF spec but may show fewer fields than the manufacturer's software.
Can I edit or remove EXIF data here?
Not in this viewer. To strip metadata use our EXIF Remover. To change capture date use the EXIF Date Editor. To stamp a new date or GPS onto the visible image use the web stamp tool on the home page.

Capture-time alternative

Stop reading EXIF after the fact. Make it visible from the start.

EXIF is hidden by design — and most platforms strip it before anyone sees it. The iOS app renders date, GPS, and address directly onto the visible image at the shutter, so the context survives every upload, screenshot, and PDF export.
