How to View Image EXIF Metadata Online
Every photo contains hidden metadata (EXIF data) like camera model, exposure settings, GPS coordinates, and timestamps. This guide shows you how to extract and view all EXIF metadata from any image file using a free online tool - no software installation and your photos stay private.
Step 1: Select Your Image File
Go to fixie.tools/metadata and click the upload area or drag your photo file onto the page. Your photo is processed locally in your browser - it's never uploaded to any server.
Step 2: View Camera and Exposure Settings
The tool displays technical shooting information if available: camera make and model, lens, focal length, aperture (f-stop), shutter speed, ISO sensitivity, and flash status.
Step 3: Check Date, Time, and GPS Location
See when the photo was taken (original capture time) and where it was taken if GPS was enabled. The tool shows latitude/longitude coordinates.
Step 4: Examine Software and Editing History
EXIF metadata often includes the software used to edit or process the photo, copyright information, and creator details. This helps verify image authenticity.
Step 5: Export or Remove Metadata
Copy specific EXIF values for your records, or use the metadata removal feature to create a clean copy of your image without any embedded data for privacy.
