What information can this tool extract from images?

This tool extracts comprehensive image information including: File details (name, size, type, format, modification date), Image dimensions (width, height, aspect ratio, megapixels, orientation), EXIF metadata (camera make/model, date taken, GPS coordinates, exposure settings, ISO, aperture, shutter speed, focal length, lens model, flash settings, white balance, color space), and other embedded metadata. The amount of information depends on what was embedded in the image when it was created.

What is EXIF data and why is it useful?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata embedded in photos by cameras and smartphones. It contains valuable information about how the photo was taken: camera settings (ISO, aperture, shutter speed), equipment used (camera and lens models), when and where the photo was taken (date, time, GPS coordinates), and technical parameters. This data is useful for photographers to learn from their shots, verify image authenticity, organize photo libraries, understand shooting conditions, and analyze photography techniques.

Do all images have EXIF data?

No, not all images contain EXIF data. Photos taken with digital cameras and smartphones usually include EXIF metadata. However, EXIF data is often removed when images are edited, compressed, or shared on social media platforms (for privacy reasons). Screenshots, computer-generated images, and images that have been processed through certain tools typically don't have EXIF data. If this tool shows 'No EXIF data found', it means the image doesn't contain embedded metadata.

Can I see GPS location from photos?

Yes, if the image contains GPS metadata. Many smartphones embed GPS coordinates (latitude, longitude) in photos when location services are enabled. This tool will display GPS data in the EXIF section if available. Note that for privacy reasons, many social media platforms and messaging apps strip GPS data from uploaded photos. Also, you can disable GPS tagging in your camera or phone settings if you don't want location information embedded in your photos.

What image formats support metadata?

JPEG/JPG files have the most comprehensive EXIF support and are the most common format for photos with metadata. TIFF files also support extensive metadata. PNG files have limited metadata support (mainly basic info, no EXIF). WebP can contain EXIF data but it's less common. RAW camera formats (CR2, NEF, ARW, etc.) contain extensive metadata but may require conversion. GIF files have minimal metadata support.

Is my data private and secure?

Yes, absolutely! All image processing and metadata extraction happens directly in your web browser using JavaScript. Your images are never uploaded to any server, and no data is collected, transmitted, or stored anywhere. This ensures complete privacy and security for your photos and their embedded information. You can even use this tool offline once the page is loaded. Your images and their metadata remain 100% private on your device.

How can I export the image information?

You have two options to export the data: 1) Click 'Copy JSON' to copy all image information to your clipboard in JSON format, which you can then paste into any text editor or application. 2) Click 'Download JSON' to save all the information as a JSON file on your computer. The JSON file contains all extracted data in a structured, machine-readable format perfect for further analysis, documentation, or integration with other tools.

Why would I need to view image metadata?

There are many practical uses: Photographers can review camera settings to improve their technique, verify what settings were used for a successful shot, and learn from shooting parameters. Researchers and journalists can verify image authenticity and check if photos have been altered. Developers can extract technical details for applications. Digital forensics can analyze image origins. Privacy-conscious users can check what information is embedded before sharing photos. Real estate and e-commerce professionals can verify image quality and specifications.

Can this tool modify or remove metadata?

No, this tool is read-only and only displays metadata - it doesn't modify or remove any information from your images. It's purely an information viewer. If you want to remove metadata from your images for privacy reasons, you would need a separate metadata removal tool or photo editing software. This tool is designed to help you understand what information is in your images, not to change it.

Does this work on mobile devices?

Yes! The tool is fully responsive and works on smartphones and tablets. You can view image information from photos in your mobile device's gallery. Simply tap to select an image from your photo library and all the information will be displayed. The JSON export features also work on mobile - you can copy the data or download it to your device.
