About This Image Metadata Viewer

View complete image metadata instantly with our free online EXIF viewer. Upload any JPEG, PNG, TIFF, or HEIC file to see file properties, pixel dimensions, embedded EXIF data, camera information, photo metadata, and GPS coordinates — all processed locally in your browser.

This tool reads the full EXIF metadata embedded by cameras and smartphones, including camera make and model, lens information, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, focal length, and the exact date and time the photo was taken. For geotagged photos, GPS metadata is extracted and displayed with a direct link to view the location on a map.

In addition to EXIF metadata, the tool also displays important image properties such as file size, image dimensions, aspect ratio, megapixels, and file format.

All processing happens entirely inside your browser using the HTML5 File API. Your images are never uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is EXIF data?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata automatically embedded in photos by cameras and smartphones. It records camera settings, lens details, date/time, and sometimes GPS location at the moment the photo was taken.

Which file formats support EXIF?

EXIF is most commonly found in JPEG and TIFF files. HEIC files from iPhones also contain EXIF data. PNG files generally do not carry EXIF metadata.

Why is no EXIF data shown for my image?

Some images have had their EXIF metadata removed — this is common with images downloaded from social media platforms, which strip metadata for privacy. PNG files also typically contain no EXIF.

Does the image get uploaded anywhere?

No. The browser reads the file locally using the File API and the exifr library. Nothing is sent to any server.

Can I see the GPS location on a map?

Yes. If the image contains GPS metadata, a link to view the coordinates on Google Maps is displayed alongside the latitude and longitude.

Does viewing EXIF metadata change my image?

No. The tool only reads metadata stored inside the image file. It never modifies the image or its metadata.

Is this tool free?

Yes. There are no limits, no account required, and no software to install.
