  • Getting left behind

    This app has lots of nice data about your photo. But its getting left behind by other apps offering more now.

    For example, Metapho now lets you browse through photos to compare exposure data side by side, as well as allowing you to edit the metadata, dates, and location.

    If ViewExif could offer this, they would have a winner.

  • Surprisingly Fun!

    This app flows well with iOS. It feels like it was, or should have been, always there. It showed the camera for all of my photos, including from family. It even has a map for where the picture was taken! You have to turn the Photo's option/button on, but open the app and it has a great instruction manual.

    Tip: If you have a wallpaper that is a picture, check it with this app. Many will tell you the program that was used. Some will even tell you the camera or the location. It's surprisingly fun!

  • I don't get it

    Literally. I downloaded this app, follow the directions to receive EXIF data on the photo, and simply received information on the file name and the size of the photo, but nothing at all on the type of camera used, the lens used, the settings, or the location. All in all, I found it to be pretty worthless.

  • simple and cool

    this little app shows the photo info that apple is not capable to implement for years even in its latest iOs. Its simple and without useless gimmicks. And most important, its without ads!
  • True gem!

    Absolutely excellent. I've loved EXIF Editor for years, & nothing beats it for easily copying geo info from one pic to another. This gem gives me easy access to the otherwise hidden metadata... golden!

    BTW, you'll see lens used & geo info only if it's already embedded in the pic's metadata, eg Sony a77v/a99v/hx90v, Nikon p990. Re the p900, ViewEXIF even shows the 35mm equivalent of the maxed out 83x optical zoom -- 2000mm. Sweet!!

  • It just works and that's great

    Acts as an action extension so it works within apps with no need to run another app to check the EXIF. Shows all the EXIF, and even allows sharing with or without the EXIF present.

    Simple, elegant, and works well.
  • Simple and practical

    Checking the EXIF data of a photo or a video is essential if you want to get more information about the photo, the camera setting and of course the location of a shared photo. However, this app lets you share a photo without the EXIF data as well, improving security and privacy in certain situations.

  • One of best of its kind

    I've tried several apps that show exif data and this is one of the best. It displays all of the information you could want.

    The developer is responsive and takes feature requests seriously. Two feature requests I made were included in a past update.
  • Extremely useful - should be native to ios

    ...but it would be even better if it weren't limited to Photos. For example, is there a way to make it work with the Dropbox app? Frustrates me to no end that I can't easily see the exif data on my uploaded photos from the iPad; this would be such a great tool for that.
  • Nice, but a bit limited.

    Nice implementation. Access via the share function is a good idea. Formatting the data displayed into a more familiar format is good too.

    One limitation I see is the date/time displayed is not the captured or digitized time, it appears to be the metadata time.

    Another limitation is the number of EXIF data fields that are displayed is only a small subset of the EXIF data available on the iOS platform.

    A third limitation is the inability to edit the EXIF data. iOS doesn't allow editing of EXIF data in the original photo but a copy of the photo with edited EXIF data can be created.

    I will check updates to see improvements but this app has a long way to go before it would take me away from EXIF Wizard Pro.
