A free online EXIF, IPTC, XMP & GPS metadata viewer
Upload your image(s) — JPEG, HEIC, PNG, RAW, the works — and we'll pull every scrap of metadata hiding inside. XMP, JFIF, ICC, IPTC, EXIF, Composite, and GPS coordinates if they're there. Nothing's retained. Nothing's stored.
Up to 30 images per batch
JPEG, HEIC, PNG, TIFF, GIF, BMP, PSD, plus the RAW formats — DNG, CR2, NEF, SR2. iPhone HEICs included. If there's metadata, we'll show it. GPS too.
Works best in Chrome, Edge, or any current Chromium-based browser. Download Chrome if you need it.
Your files are read, parsed, and discarded. Nothing's stored on our end. Nothing's shared. That's the whole policy.
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata embedded inside a photo by the camera or phone that took it. It includes the camera model, lens, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, date and time the photo was taken, and often GPS coordinates if location services were enabled.
Yes. JustTheMeta reads HEIC files directly, including all EXIF, IPTC, XMP, and GPS data that iPhones embed. No conversion needed.
No. Files are parsed in a temporary session and discarded. Nothing is retained, logged, or shared. JustTheMeta is built for privacy.
Yes. If the photo's EXIF data contains GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude), JustTheMeta will display them. Most modern phones embed GPS by default unless location access is disabled for the camera.
JPEG, HEIC, PNG, TIFF, GIF, BMP, PSD, and RAW formats including DNG, CR2, NEF, and SR2. If a file has embedded metadata, JustTheMeta will extract it.
Try fewer than 30 files at a time. Big batches can choke the uploader; smaller drops process faster anyway.
Over fifty years in, photographer-owned, and unapologetically picky about what we license.
We've been at this since the early '70s — more than five decades of building one of the most diverse libraries in stock photography. Curated by humans who shoot, edit, and license, not by an algorithm chasing trends.
Photographer-owned, which means the people pulling the strings are the same people behind the lenses. Browse, license, license again. We work for the photographers first.
