How to: EXIF Viewer
- Upload one or more photos.
- Review camera, date, settings and GPS location.
- Download the metadata as CSV or switch to removal mode.
Every photo from a phone or camera carries hidden details: which device took it, the exposure settings, when it was taken and often exactly where. Photographers use EXIF to learn from their settings, journalists and researchers use it to check where and when an image was captured, and everyone should know what they share. This viewer reads the metadata without uploading your photos.
Common uses
- Check camera settings such as shutter speed, aperture and ISO.
- Verify the date and location of a photo.
- Find out whether a photo reveals your home location before sharing.
- Audit image collections and export metadata to a spreadsheet.
Tips for best results
- Original files from the camera contain the most metadata.
- A warning appears if GPS coordinates are found.
- Use Remove EXIF Data before posting photos online.
- Export CSV to compare settings across many photos.
What the viewer reads
JPEG EXIF and XMP blocks, PNG text and eXIf chunks and WEBP EXIF chunks are parsed directly from the file bytes. Fields include camera make and model, lens, exposure, aperture, ISO, focal length, flash, orientation, software, artist, copyright and GPS latitude, longitude and altitude.
GPS on the map
When coordinates are present they are converted to decimal degrees with a link to OpenStreetMap, so you can see the place in one click. The map opens only if you click the link.

Frequently asked questions
What is EXIF data
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is information that cameras and phones save inside photos: camera make and model, lens, exposure settings, date and time and often the GPS location where the photo was taken.
