Key Features
Full EXIF Data
Reads all embedded EXIF fields from JPG and TIFF images: camera make, model, lens focal length, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, exposure program, metering mode, flash status, white balance, and more.
GPS Location
Extracts GPS latitude, longitude, and altitude when present. Displays decimal coordinates with a direct link to Google Maps to visualize exactly where the photo was taken.
PNG & WebP Support
Reads tEXt metadata chunks from PNG files (title, author, description, software, copyright). Extracts any EXIF segments embedded in WebP files.
Export as JSON
Click Export to download all metadata as a structured JSON file. Useful for archiving, scripting, or integrating image data into other workflows.
100% Browser-Based
All reading happens locally in your browser. Your images are never uploaded anywhere. Inspect DevTools Network tab to verify—zero outgoing requests when processing.
Privacy & Security
Your images are never sent to any server. All metadata reading happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. This also means it works offline once the page is loaded. Your files, your device, your data.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is EXIF data?
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata embedded in image files by cameras and phones. It records technical details like camera make/model, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, GPS coordinates, and timestamps. Most JPG files from cameras contain rich EXIF data; screenshots and images processed through design software often do not.
Why does my image show no EXIF data?
Many image processors strip EXIF data for privacy or file size reasons. Screenshots never have EXIF. Images shared through WhatsApp, Facebook, or Twitter often have metadata removed. Images compressed with canvas-based tools (including many online converters) also lose EXIF. If you want to verify the original photo metadata, use the original file from your camera or phone.
Can I view GPS coordinates from photos?
Yes, if the photo was taken with location services enabled on the camera or phone. The GPS section will display the latitude and longitude with a link to view the location on Google Maps. Note: many apps and social networks strip GPS data from shared images to protect user privacy.
Which image formats are supported?
JPG/JPEG (full EXIF support), PNG (tEXt metadata chunks), WebP (embedded EXIF segments), and TIFF (full EXIF/IFD support). RAW formats like CR2, NEF, and ARW are not currently supported.
What does the JSON export contain?
The exported JSON file contains all metadata fields found in the image: file info (name, size, type), image dimensions, all parsed EXIF tags, GPS data, and timestamps. Raw rational values are included alongside computed decimal values for precision.
Can this tool remove or edit metadata?
No—this is a read-only viewer. It does not modify your image in any way. To strip metadata for privacy, use a dedicated tool or re-export through a canvas-based image converter (which discards EXIF by design).
