See exactly what your photos reveal - camera, settings, dates and GPS
What is the EXIF Metadata Viewer?
The exif metadata viewer works like this: it reads the EXIF block embedded in JPG, HEIC, TIFF and PNG files and lists every field - camera, settings, timestamps, software and GPS - with a map link when coordinates exist. Everything happens on your device - the input never leaves your tab unless the tool clearly states it performs a server-side lookup.
How to use the EXIF Metadata Viewer
Drop or select a photo - it is decoded locally, never uploaded.
Skim the flagged panels: Camera & shot, Date & time, Location, Software & editing.
If GPS coordinates appear, click the map link to see exactly where the photo was taken.
Use the Image Metadata Remover before sharing photos that reveal your location.

Frequently asked questions
Which formats carry EXIF?
JPEG, HEIC and TIFF almost always; PNG usually carries none; screenshots are typically clean. WebP can carry EXIF but most exports strip it.
Why does my photo show no metadata?
Messaging apps and most social platforms strip EXIF on upload - what you downloaded from WhatsApp is already clean.
Why does my phone photo show GPS coordinates?
Most camera apps geotag by default - the coordinates ride inside the file invisibly, which is exactly what people check before publishing photos publicly.
