Image EXIF Viewer

An EXIF viewer (or EXIF reader) is a tool that extracts and displays metadata from image files.

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data is embedded in image files and contains information such as camera settings, location, and timestamps.

EXIF readers help you view and understand this metadata.

The supported file types for the EXIF viewer include:

• JPEG (.jpg, .jpeg)
• PNG (.png)
• TIFF (.tiff)
• HEIC (.heic)
• WEBP (.webp)
• GIF (.gif)

The EXIF viewer works by extracting metadata embedded in image files.

When you upload an image file (e.g. a photo you want to check for details), the tool reads the EXIF data and displays it in a structured format.

You can view details such as camera make and model, exposure settings, GPS coordinates, and more.

If the image metadata contains valid coordinates, a map will display the exact location of those coordinates.

The EXIF data in an image file can contain a wide range of information, including:

• Image dimensions and resolution
• Camera make and model
• Exposure settings (aperture, shutter speed, ISO)
• Date and time the image was captured
• GPS coordinates of the location where the image was taken
• Software used to process the image (or to scan it)
• Image resolution and dimensions
• Color space and profile
• Copyright information
• Keywords

To prevent sensitive information from being stored in EXIF data in your images, you can take measures such as:

• Disable location services on your camera or smartphone to prevent GPS coordinates from being recorded.
• Turn off the 'Save EXIF data' option in your camera settings (if available).
• Use photo editing software to remove or modify metadata before sharing images online.
• Use online tools to strip EXIF data from images before uploading them to the web.
