Real customer testimonials:

"Finally - This program is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to use but very effective and comprehensive. And the best: Pay once and good! Thanks to the developer!"

"Just good! - Comprehensive and zero effort to use. For me the best app to edit the EXIF data of my photos. The presets are great and finally no in-app purchases! Keep it up!"

"IPad version - it is here - Many thanks to the developer. Now I can add location information to photos on iPad. The developer also responds very quickly to requests and suggestions for improvement."

"For a long time I was missing a possibility on the iPhone / iPad to store the location data of photos, because I still shoot a lot with "old" DSLRs and they do not have GPS. With this, this also works from Apple's photo app. 
Without complications. That's how it should be!"

The app works with:
- All photos in your iPhone or iPad photo library.
- Photos in iCloud (Apple's exclusive file app, locally and in the cloud. Third-party cloud apps are only partially supported because their manufacturers do not fully support Apple's file API – please use with caution!)

What the app doesn't do:
- Changing the filename: EXIF isn't about filenames. Also iOS does not allow the renaming of photos in the Photos Library.
- Until now it can't edit RAW (will come in a later release) or PNG (see below why).
- Full support of third-party cloud apps (e.g., GDrive or OneDrive) are only partially supported because their manufacturers do not fully support apples files api.

Question: What is EXIF data?
EXIF stands for "Exchangeable Image File Format."
When you take or receive a photo with a digital camera, it contains invisible metadata. This is information attached to the photo that describes, for example, certain properties and settings of the camera or even the place where the picture was taken. Services that can read this data are able to collect the circumstances and contexts of the photos and match them with certain other events (e.g. calendar entries, motion profiles, etc.).

Question: Why doesn't the app handle PNG?
Unfortunately, the Photos API does not allow modification of PNG files, but saves them as JPG. Therefore, to avoid confusion, imagExif cannot edit PNGs.

### 5/5 — Great for professionals

*2026-05-05, version 2.4.43*

Very good for newsgathering and quick sending to clients

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2025-10-04, version 2.4.37*

Was looking for an app where I can edit the camera model as it was wrong and almost all apps say in app purchase but until you install it you don’t know how much and surprise it’s a overpriced subscription or $99. This app was straight forward $7.99 and it said it can change camera information.  The bad reviews I saw are because of user error not because the app doesn’t work.

### 5/5 — Endlich eine App, die auch IPTC Informationen beherrscht.

*2025-09-25*

Klasse gemachte App, die sehr umfangreiche Editiermöglichkeiten bietet, auch mehrere Fotos gleichzeitig als Batch. IPTC Informationen können hinzugefügt werden und auch als Vorlagen gespeichert werden.

### 5/5 — Molto utile

*2025-08-22, version 2.4.33*

App precisa veloce e intuitiva

### 2/5 — Umständliche Bedienung

*2025-07-12*

Positiv sind  die ausführliche Anzeige der EXIF-Daten sowie die Möglichkeit, durch setzen einer Stecknadel den Aufnahmeort zu markieren. Der Weg dahin ist aber mühsam. Zum Wählen des Fotos kann man unter Fotos (das ist die Mediathek) oder Sammlungen (das sind die Alben) wählen. Nach jeder Bearbeitung wird zunächst Fotos angezeigt, wobei man doch unter Sammlungen eher das Foto findet, was man bearbeiten will. Leider merkt sich die App auch nicht, in welchem Album man sich zuletzt befunden hat. Umständlich! Will man Metadaten ändern, so geht das nur mit mehrfachen Bestätigungen, die sorgfältig gelesen werden müssen. Besonders, wenn man mehrere Fotos geladen hat. Die Sinnhaftigkeit, mehrere Fotos exakt auf die gleiche Zeit einzustellen, erschließt sich mir leider auch nicht. Bei der Ortsangabe werden nur EXIF-Daten berücksichtigt. Sind nur Ortsangaben von iOS vorhanden, so kann man die immerhin als EXIF-Daten übernehmen. Da überhaupt nur EXIF-Daten bearbeitet werden, können Videos natürlich nicht bearbeitet werden. Wobei die unter iOS doch auch eine Ortsangabe haben. Schade!

Für mich war das ein klarer Fehlkauf. Glücklicherweise ist die App nicht so teuer…

### 5/5 — Just great

*2025-05-11, version 2.4.29*

I have been looking for something like this for while, as I am using my iPad Air more and more, particularly for scanned images of old photos. It seems to have everything I want including happily being able to read and edit image data both in file system folders and Apple Photos… This has solved a number of problems for me, thoroughly recommended!

### 5/5 — Klare Empfehlung

*2025-04-01*

Schon 2010 hatte ich das erste iPad unter anderem in der Erwartung gekauft, damit auf Reisen meinen Photo Workflow durchzuführen. Das war eine große Enttäuschung. Dabei wollte ich ja nur auf die Mitnahme eines Laptops verzichten um Photos zu importieren, selektieren, bearbeiten und danach Metadaten zu editieren incl. der Geodaten, um schließlich die Photos zu Hause auf den Computer zu übertragen. Lange war insbesondere die Bearbeitung der Metadaten nur ein Drama, häufig sind die Apps eine Einbahnstraße da sie die Photos nicht wieder in Apple Fotos abspeichern. 2017 fand ich dann MetaGear, womit dies möglich war, aber die App nervt mit häufigen Abstürzen und die Entwicklung wurde wohl eingestellt. Daher unternahm ich nach langer Zeit mal wieder den Versuch eine neue App für diesen Part des Workflows zu suchen. Totaler Reinfall etwas im AppStore zu finden, die Suchfunktion ist einfach nur schlecht. Dann hatte ich die Idee mal Copilot zu fragen, und siehe da, mir wurde diese App empfohlen. Gekauft, installiert, begeistert ist mein Resümee. Endlich hat mal jemand eine Software nicht nur geschrieben, sondern scheint diese auch selbst zu benutzen. Und sie funktioniert. Leider selten heutzutage. Das MMI ist klar strukturiert, auch ohne Handbuch kommt man sofort klar. Lobenswert ist auch, dass der Autor auf diese Abo-Unart verzichtet. Die Limits in der Anzahl gleichzeitig zu bearbeitenden Photos ist klar kommuniziert, ich glaube dem Autor einfach dass da ein Limit durch iPadOs besteht. Die Vorlagenfunktion ist praxisnah und eine große Hilfe! Was mir noch fehlt - sorry meckern auf hohem Niveau - wäre die Möglichkeit die Geodaten eines Photos auf andere zu kopieren.

### 5/5 — Justo lo que quería

*2025-02-07, version 2.4.21*

Necesitaba una app que pudiera modificar los metadatos de las fotos que tengo almacenadas en drive y esto es perfecto.
Sería genial poder seleccionar los metadatos a modificar mediante plantillas

### 5/5 — Beste App auf dem Markt

*2024-10-26, version 2.4.19*

Absolut empfehlenswert!

### 5/5 — Really great support

*2024-10-19, version 2.4.18*

I had a minor problem with this normally superb app that I logged with the developer. Thomas responded very quickly and after a couple of emails helped me track down the problem as user error! Absolutely great app and support.
