Photo Metadata Viewer — What's Inside Your Image
A photo metadata viewer reveals what sharing a file really shares: camera and phone model, timestamps, GPS, editing software, author names, and thumbnails. Use the viewer to audit a file, then clean it with the same tool below.
Unlike upload-based viewers, this one parses files locally — the photo never leaves your device.
Drop a photo in the viewer to inspect its metadata — or clean it directly here:
What to look for
GPS coordinates (highest risk), timestamps that reveal routines, device serials in MakerNotes, author names in IPTC/XMP, and embedded thumbnails that can survive naive cropping of metadata.
Viewer vs cleaner
Viewing is read-only and answers “what's exposed?”. Cleaning produces a new file with those segments removed and a verification report proving it. Audit first, then clean, then re-view the output to double-check.
Common questions
Is viewing private?
Yes — parsing happens in your browser's memory. No file data is sent anywhere.
Which formats can I inspect?
JPEG (full EXIF/GPS/XMP/IPTC), plus PNG, WebP, and HEIC (converted) with format-appropriate coverage.
