FAQ

What is EXIF data?

EXIF is a standard for embedding information within an image, whether it's a photo taken with a digital camera, smartphone, or tablet.

EXIF data includes various information such as:

• Camera model
• Mobile device type
• Shooting parameters (shutter speed, aperture, ISO)
• Geolocation

How can you find your location on a map using longitude and latitude?

1. You can use the exif viewers mentioned in the review for convenience.

2. Another option is to use mobile applications for Android or iOS. For example, opening a file in the built-in iPhone Photos app displays the location on a map in the Places section.

3. You can also use the search bar on Google Maps to find the exact location where the photo was taken.

Is it dangerous to store EXIF data in photos?

Yes, especially if the data compromises your privacy. EXIF data, particularly GPS coordinates, can allow intruders to find out where you were at a specific time.

How do I disable location saving in EXIF data?

You can disable it through your phone’s settings. Look for the option that controls geotagging or location services for photos.

Alternatively, you can turn off location services entirely while taking photos.

Can I delete EXIF data?

You can use a tool like Metadata Remover. Upload your photo, click "Remove Metadata," and then download the image to your phone or PC.
