Image Metadata Editor

View and edit EXIF metadata — change date, location, camera settings and more

Image Metadata (EXIF) Editor — View, Edit, and Remove EXIF Data Including GPS Coordinates, Camera Settings, Copyright, and Description from JPEG Images

  1. Upload a JPEG image by clicking the upload area or dragging and dropping — the tool only works with JPEG files because EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) metadata is embedded in JPEG headers (also present in TIFF and RAW formats, but JPEG is the universal sharing format). EXIF data is created automatically by digital cameras and smartphones at the moment of capture, storing everything from the obvious (date/time, camera model) to the invisible (GPS coordinates, lens focal length, aperture, ISO, shutter speed, white balance, flash mode, and even the camera's serial number). Before sharing photos online, it's wise to review this hidden data — it can reveal your home location, daily routines, and device information.
  2. Edit the EXIF fields organized into three logical groups. Basic Info: image description (useful for alt-text generation and DAM system indexing), artist/photographer name, copyright notice (critical for protecting intellectual property — add '© 2024 Your Name. All rights reserved.'), and capture date/time. GPS Info: latitude, longitude (displayed in decimal degrees for easy editing — e.g., 37.7749° N, 122.4194° W for San Francisco), and altitude in meters. You can correct inaccurate GPS data, add location to photos taken with GPS-disabled cameras, or remove location before sharing images of your home or children's school. Camera Settings: make, model, lens, focal length, aperture (f-stop), shutter speed, ISO, and flash status — useful for photographers documenting their technique.
  3. Click Save Metadata to download a new JPEG file with all your edited EXIF data embedded, or Remove EXIF to strip all metadata and download a clean JPEG containing only image pixels. Removing EXIF before uploading to social media protects your privacy — most major platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter/X) strip EXIF automatically, but many smaller sites, forums, and direct file shares do not. All editing uses the piexifjs library running entirely in your browser's JavaScript engine — your images are never uploaded to any server, making this safe for sensitive or private photos. The original file on your device remains unchanged.
