Example

Input: A geotagged JPG straight from a camera (EXIF data intact)

Result: Camera Make and Model, Shutter Speed 1/250 s, Aperture f/2.8, ISO 400, Focal Length 50.0 mm, Date Taken and GPS 48.858300, 2.294500

Tags are read from the file in the browser and GPS is converted to decimal degrees. A PNG or a stripped photo only shows file name, size, type and dimensions.

  1. Upload a JPEG, TIFF, or HEIC image that contains EXIF metadata.
  2. The tool reads the embedded metadata and displays the key fields as a grid of labeled values.
  3. Browse camera details like model, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and focal length.
  4. View GPS coordinates and date/time information if present in the image.
  5. Use the copy button on any value, such as the GPS coordinates, to paste it elsewhere.

What EXIF Data Reveals About Your Photos

The EXIF Viewer shows the hidden details stored inside a photo: the camera or phone, lens, exposure settings, the date it was taken and, often, the GPS location. Upload a photo and the fields appear as a grid you can read and copy.

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata that cameras and phones write into each photo. Photographers use it to see which aperture, shutter speed and ISO produced a shot. It also helps to confirm when a picture was taken, or which device took it.

The privacy side matters more to most people. Phones usually record GPS coordinates in every photo unless location tagging is turned off. If you send the original file by email or chat, or upload it to a site that keeps metadata, the location of your home can travel with it. This tool shows the latitude and longitude in decimal degrees, which you can paste into any map to check. To remove the data, save a copy with the Image Compressor or the Image Format Converter. Both redraw the image and do not copy its metadata.

JPEG, TIFF and HEIC photos usually carry EXIF. PNG and WebP files rarely do, and screenshots and edited exports often have none. When nothing is found, the tool says so and still shows the file size and dimensions. Many social networks strip metadata on upload, so a photo saved from one usually has none. Files up to 30 MB are read in your browser with the exifr library, and nothing is uploaded.

Frequently Asked Questions

Upload it and look for GPS Latitude, GPS Longitude and GPS Coordinates in the results. If they appear, the photo records where it was taken, and you can paste the coordinates into a map app to see the spot. If no GPS fields are listed, the photo has no stored location.
Save a new copy with a tool that redraws the image, such as the Image Compressor or Image Format Converter here. The new file does not copy the metadata, so GPS, camera and date fields are gone. Upload the new file to this viewer to confirm. Keep the original if you want the information later.
The data was never written or has been removed. Screenshots, graphics exported from design apps and most PNG files have none. Many social media platforms and messaging apps strip metadata when you upload a photo, so images saved from them are usually empty too. Check the original file from your camera or phone instead.
Aperture, shown as f/1.8 or f/8, is the size of the lens opening; a smaller number lets in more light and blurs the background more. Shutter speed, such as 1/250 s, is how long the sensor was exposed. ISO is the sensor sensitivity; higher values brighten dark scenes but add noise.
