JPEG EXIF Viewer

View the EXIF metadata of a JPEG photo, including the camera model, exposure settings, date taken and GPS location, and save a copy with EXIF removed. The photo is read in your browser. If it has GPS coordinates, the Location tab shows them on an embedded Google Map.

About this tool

What is EXIF?

EXIF is metadata that cameras and smartphones write into JPEG photos: the make and model, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, the date and time, and often the GPS position where the photo was taken. This viewer reads that data from a JPEG file and organizes it into tabs. It can also save a copy without EXIF, so you can share a photo without revealing where it was taken.

How to use

  1. Drag a JPEG file onto the drop area, or click it to choose one.
  2. Switch between the Preview, Image, Camera, Location and All tabs.
  3. To check another photo, click the folder icon or drop a new file.
  4. To save a copy without metadata, click No EXIF. It is downloaded as name-no-exif.jpg.

FAQ

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The file is read in your browser. The only exception is the map: when you open the Location tab of a photo with GPS data, an embedded Google Maps view is loaded, which sends the coordinates to Google.

Why does it say the file has no EXIF information?

Only JPEG files are supported, so PNG, WebP and HEIC files are not read. Many JPEGs also have no EXIF: screenshots, edited images, and photos downloaded from social media or messaging apps often have it removed.

What does the No EXIF button do?

It draws the photo onto a canvas and saves it as a new JPEG. All metadata is removed, including the GPS location and camera details. Because the image is re-encoded, the quality may drop slightly.

Can I edit EXIF values?

No. This tool only reads EXIF data and can remove all of it at once; it cannot change individual values.
