Every detail your camera captured.

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata embedded in photos by your camera or smartphone. It records details like camera make and model, lens, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, date and time, GPS coordinates, and more. This information is stored inside the image file itself and travels with it unless intentionally removed.

Drop any photo or RAW file into ExifGrabber and the full EXIF metadata is displayed instantly. No software to install, no account to create, it works entirely in your browser. You can also view basic metadata through your operating system's file properties, but dedicated tools like ExifGrabber show far more detail and organize it clearly.

ExifGrabber reads EXIF data from JPEG, PNG, TIFF, WebP, HEIC, and all major RAW formats including Canon CR2 and CR3, Nikon NEF, Sony ARW, Fujifilm RAF, Olympus ORF, Panasonic RW2, Pentax PEF, Samsung SRW, and Adobe DNG. Files up to 100 MB are supported.

Most photos taken with a digital camera or smartphone include EXIF data, but not all. Some image formats like GIF don't support it. Social media platforms and messaging apps often strip EXIF data when you upload or send photos. Metadata can also be intentionally removed with editing software.

No. ExifGrabber processes everything locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your image files never leave your device, no data is uploaded, stored, or transmitted to any server. This makes it safe to use with private or sensitive photos.

Yes, if the camera or phone had GPS enabled when the photo was taken. ExifGrabber extracts GPS coordinates and displays the exact location on an interactive map, with one-click links to open the location in Google Maps or Apple Maps. Many smartphones record GPS by default, while most standalone cameras require a GPS module or connected phone.

EXIF data typically includes aperture (f-stop), shutter speed, ISO sensitivity, focal length, metering mode, exposure compensation, flash status, white balance, and exposure program. Some cameras also record lens serial number, shutter count, firmware version, and color profile. The exact fields vary by camera make and model.

Yes, EXIF metadata can be modified with specialized software. The data is not cryptographically signed on most consumer cameras, so fields like date, location, and camera model can be changed after the fact. EXIF data should not be treated as proof of authenticity without additional verification.

ExifGrabber can remove it for you. Drop a JPEG, PNG, or WebP file and click "Remove metadata & download" to get a clean copy with all EXIF, GPS, and other metadata stripped out, processed entirely in your browser, with nothing uploaded. You can also strip metadata with photo editing software: on Windows, right-click a file and go to Properties > Details > Remove Properties; on macOS, Preview can remove location data. Removing GPS data before sharing photos online is a good privacy practice.

Yes, ExifGrabber is completely free with no limits on the number of files you can analyze. There's no account required and no software to download, just open the site and drop in your photo.
