About Image Metadata

Every image file contains metadata — information about the image beyond the pixel data. Basic metadata includes dimensions (width × height in pixels), file size, and MIME type. JPEG files typically contain EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data including camera settings (ISO, aperture, shutter speed), GPS coordinates (if enabled), creation timestamp, and device information. PNG files can contain metadata chunks with creation software, timestamps, and custom text.

Note: This browser-based tool extracts basic metadata using the Image and File APIs. Full EXIF extraction (camera settings, GPS) requires a dedicated EXIF library like exifr.js. For security and privacy, many photo sharing platforms strip EXIF data to prevent location leakage.

FAQ

Can images contain my location data?
Yes. Photos taken with a smartphone typically contain GPS coordinates in their EXIF data unless location services are disabled in the camera app. Sharing original photos online can reveal your location. Social platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram strip EXIF data server-side, but file sharing services may not.
