Read and strip image metadata
Every photo you take contains hidden metadata — camera model, exposure settings, GPS coordinates, timestamps, and more. This tool reads all EXIF data from JPEG images and displays it in a clear table. You can also strip all metadata for privacy before sharing images online.
Frequently Asked Questions
What metadata does this tool show?
It displays EXIF data including camera model, lens, aperture, shutter speed, ISO, GPS coordinates, date taken, software used, color space, and more. The exact fields depend on what your camera or phone embedded in the image.
Why would I want to strip metadata?
Image metadata can contain sensitive information like GPS coordinates (where the photo was taken), your camera model, and timestamps. Stripping metadata before sharing photos online protects your privacy and can also reduce file size slightly.
Does stripping metadata reduce file size?
Yes, but usually by a small amount — typically 5-50KB depending on the metadata present. Camera RAW thumbnails and GPS data can be larger. The visual quality of the image is completely unaffected by metadata removal.
Which image formats contain metadata?
JPEG and TIFF files commonly contain EXIF metadata. PNG files can contain text metadata chunks. WebP can include EXIF data. HEIC/HEIF files from iPhones contain extensive metadata including depth maps.
