Free EXIF Reader — See What Your Photos Reveal
Every phone and camera photo carries hidden metadata: device model, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, GPS coordinates and exact capture time. The EXIF Reader parses it locally — essential before sharing a photo publicly (GPS leaks your home location!) and fascinating for photography analysis.
🔒 100% Private — runs in your browser, nothing is uploadedCome usare This EXIF Reader (Step-by-Step)
- Upload a photo — JPG or TIFF straight from your camera or phone.
- Instant parse — All EXIF fields are extracted from the file header.
- Check GPS first — If coordinates show, strip them before sharing publicly.
Inside the APP1 Segment — Under the Hood
JPEG EXIF lives in an APP1 marker containing a miniature TIFF structure: byte-order header, IFD0 with camera tags, and pointers into Exif and GPS sub-IFDs. The reader walks these 12-byte tag entries (tag ID, type, count, value offset) and converts rationals to readable shutter speeds and DMS to decimal GPS.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the photo leave my device?
No — parsing reads the file locally in JavaScript.
Why is GPS missing?
Most social apps and screenshots strip EXIF; only camera-original files keep it.
Can I remove EXIF here?
Re-saving via our JPG compressor strips most metadata automatically.
