Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for Image Metadata Viewer users

What is image metadata (EXIF data)?

Image metadata (EXIF data) is hidden information embedded in photos by cameras and smartphones. It includes GPS coordinates, camera make/model, date/time, exposure settings, focal length, ISO, software used, and more. This data is not visible in the image itself.

What kind of data can I see?

You can view camera make and model, GPS coordinates, date taken, exposure time, aperture, ISO speed, focal length, image dimensions, resolution, software, copyright, artist info, orientation, and color space.

Does this tool work with all image formats?

EXIF data is most commonly found in JPEG/JPG images. PNG, WebP, and GIF files may have limited metadata. The viewer will show all available data for any format, including basic file information.

Can I see GPS coordinates from a photo?

Yes, if the photo contains GPS data (common in smartphone photos), the viewer will display the latitude and longitude coordinates. This is useful for checking if your images reveal location information.

Is my image uploaded when viewing metadata?

Metadata reading runs in your browser. The selected image is not uploaded to Rune for this operation.

Why does my image show no EXIF data?

Some images don't contain EXIF data. This can happen if metadata was stripped by social media platforms, if the image was created by software rather than a camera, or if the image format doesn't support EXIF.

How can I remove the metadata after viewing it?

Use our Image Metadata Remover tool to strip all EXIF data from your images. It removes GPS coordinates, camera info, and all personal metadata before you share photos.

Why does my image show no GPS data?

GPS tags may be disabled on the camera, stripped by an app, removed by a social platform, or absent from screenshots and edited images.

Can I copy the metadata?

Yes! Click the 'Copy All Metadata' button to copy all metadata entries to your clipboard in a readable text format. Perfect for documentation or reports.

What is the difference between Date Taken and Date Modified?

Date Taken is when the photo was originally captured by the camera. Date Modified is when the file was last edited or saved. These can differ if the image has been edited after capture.
