<h1>How to view the EXIF data of a photo</h1>
|
||||
<p class="lead">You can read a photo's hidden details in seconds, on any device. Checking first tells you whether a photo is safe to share.</p>
|
||||
<p class="meta">Updated 2026-10-20 · Written by the Untrace team</p>
|
||||
<h2>In your browser, on any device</h2>
|
||||
<p>Add the photo to <a href="/#tool">Untrace</a>. It lists every metadata block it finds, such as GPS location, camera and device, timestamps, XMP and IPTC fields and C2PA content credentials, and it can show the raw values. The photo is read inside your browser and is not uploaded.</p>
|
||||
<h2>On Windows</h2>
|
||||
<p>Right-click the photo, choose Properties, then the Details tab. It shows camera, date, and GPS coordinates if present.</p>
|
||||
<h2>On Mac</h2>
|
||||
<p>Open the photo in Preview, choose Tools, then Show Inspector. The Exif and GPS tabs show the stored values.</p>
|
||||
<h2>On iPhone</h2>
|
||||
<p>Open the photo in Photos and tap the info button or swipe up. You will see the camera, lens, file size and a map if the photo has a location.</p>
|
||||
<h2>On Android</h2>
|
||||
<p>Open the photo in your gallery or Google Photos and swipe up or tap Details. Location, device and capture time appear there.</p>
|
||||
<h2>What to look for</h2>
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li><strong>GPS or a map:</strong> the photo can reveal where it was taken.</li>
|
||||
<li><strong>Make, model and serial numbers:</strong> identify the device.</li>
|
||||
<li><strong>Date and time:</strong> show when you were there.</li>
|
||||
<li><strong>Software and creator fields:</strong> reveal the apps you use and sometimes your name.</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<p>If any of that should stay private, remove it before sharing. See <a href="/guides/what-is-exif-data/">what EXIF data is</a> for the full list.</p>
|
||||
<div class="cta"><p><strong>See what your own photo is hiding.</strong> Untrace lists every metadata block, then removes it, all inside your browser.</p><a class="btn btn-primary" href="/#tool">Scan a photo</a></div>
|
||||
<h2>Common questions</h2>
|
||||
<h3>Why do some photos show no EXIF data?</h3><p>The photo may have been edited, converted or shared through an app that strips it. Screenshots and many downloaded images carry little or none.</p><h3>Can I see EXIF data without installing software?</h3><p>Yes. Your operating system and Untrace in your browser both show it without installing anything.</p>
