Upload a photo to see its hidden EXIF story: camera and lens, exposure settings, timestamps and GPS location, parsed directly in your browser with a real, from-scratch EXIF reader.
A from-scratch JPEG APP1 and TIFF parser reads camera, exposure and GPS tags without any external library.
Metadata appears the moment your photo finishes decoding, organized into clear, readable sections.
Your photo and its metadata are read locally. Nothing is uploaded to a server by this tool.
Check what a photo reveals before you share it, or explore the technical details behind a favorite shot.
Many cameras and phones embed a metadata block called EXIF directly inside a JPEG file. This tool locates that block, walks its internal directory structure and decodes the fields into readable values.
Make, model and lens details identify the device and optics used to capture the photo.
Exposure time, aperture, ISO and focal length describe exactly how the photo was exposed.
Original capture date and time, separate from a file's last-modified date, when the camera recorded one.
Latitude and longitude, converted from EXIF's degree-minute-second format to a clickable map link.
For JPEG photos it reads EXIF data including camera make and model, lens, exposure time, aperture, ISO, focal length, orientation, software and GPS coordinates when present. For PNG files it reads eXIf chunks and common text metadata fields.
Many images have their metadata removed by messaging apps, social platforms or export settings, and most PNG screenshots never contained EXIF data to begin with. That is normal and simply means there is nothing hidden to show.
No. The file is read and parsed entirely in your browser using the File and DataView APIs. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.
If the photo contains GPS EXIF tags, the tool converts them to decimal coordinates and gives you a map link. Many phones only store this if location services were enabled when the photo was taken.
No. This tool only reads and displays metadata. Your original file is never modified. Use a dedicated EXIF cleaner if you want to remove metadata.
