See what your photo is hiding
Read the camera, date and GPS information stored inside a photo, and see the location on a map.
Photos carry a data sheet that no gallery app shows you in full. This reads it back out: the camera and lens, the exposure settings, the moment the shutter opened, the editing software that touched it afterwards, and the coordinates if location was on.
It is useful in both directions — checking what you are about to send someone, and checking what someone sent you.
If you find something you would rather not share, the same page will strip it all out for you in one click.
How to use it
- Drop in a photo (JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC).
- Read what it contains, grouped by camera, photo settings, location and other blocks.
- If there’s a location, open it on a map — or remove everything and download the clean copy.
Frequently asked questions
Why does my photo show nothing?
Either it never had metadata (screenshots and many downloaded images don’t), or something already stripped it — most social networks re-encode uploads and throw the EXIF away in the process.
How accurate is the GPS position?
It’s whatever the phone recorded at the time, usually accurate to a few metres outdoors and much less reliable indoors. The map link is there so you can see it at a glance.
Can you read metadata from HEIC files?
Partly. HEIC and AVIF store their metadata deep inside the container, so only the presence of an EXIF block is detected rather than each field. JPG, PNG and WebP are read in full.
Does the date tell me when a photo was really taken?
It tells you what the camera’s clock said. It is easy to change, so treat it as a strong hint rather than proof — and remember editing software often rewrites it.
