FAQ

EXIF metadata questions

Short answers to the questions people usually have before checking photo metadata or removing GPS data.

What is EXIF data?

EXIF is hidden information stored inside an image file. It may include camera model, lens, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, date taken, resolution, editing software, and GPS coordinates.

How do I find where a photo was taken?

Upload the image and check the Location section. If GPSLatitude and GPSLongitude are present, you can copy the coordinates or open them directly in Google Maps.

Why does my photo have no GPS coordinates?

Location saving may be disabled, or metadata may have been removed by an editor, messenger, social network, screenshot tool, or image compression service.

Is EXIF data dangerous?

It can be risky when it contains private details. GPS metadata may reveal a home, workplace, school, hotel, travel route, or another sensitive location.

Can I remove EXIF metadata?

Yes. Use the clean download option to create a new copy without EXIF metadata. The original file on your device is not changed.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

Local files are processed in your browser. If you use image URL upload, the tool needs to fetch that public image URL to read the file.
