## What is PhotInfo?

PhotInfo is an app to view, edit, and manage photo metadata - such as location, camera info, date, time, and more - right from your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

# Why PhotInfo

Every digital photo contains more than just pixels - it holds hidden metadata like shutter speed, camera model, ISO, focal length, and even GPS location. PhotInfo gives you full access to this information, letting you explore, understand, and take control of what your photos say about you.

Whether you want to edit or remove metadata for privacy, correct missing or inaccurate info, or simply learn more about how your photos were taken, PhotInfo makes it easy. It's a powerful tool for photographers, teachers, and anyone who wants to get more from their images - or just keep their photo library tidy.

Real users include photography instructors and enthusiasts who use PhotInfo to improve their technique or teach others.

# What makes this app unique

 • Detailed metadata access (Exif, Tiff, IPTC...)
 • Human-readable + raw formats
 • Smart photo navigation and album browsing
 • The IPTC metadata editor with a template
 • Actively maintained since 2013
 • Lightweight: less than 4MB

# Features

With PhotInfo you can:

 • View all the tags (Exif, Tiff, IPTC, etc.) from a picture: in raw or in human readable format
 • Display an image with the main tags and the map of the location in a single view
 • Share an image with or without tags
 • Copy the key data or the content of individual tags
 • Share all the tags in raw or in human readable format or as a JSON
 • Edit or create a copy of the image with modified tags
 • Modify IPTC tags using values saved in a template
 • Create a copy of the image with the minimum content of info in the tags (related to image data structure, such as the image size, resolution and  • orientation)
 • Duplicate a photo with a custom name
 • Edit a batch of photos
 • See where the photo was taken, in different ways (map, address, coordinate)
 • Favorite or delete a photo
 • Quickly scroll through the albums of your iOS device
 • Look at different pictures in burst photos (iOS only)
 • See and share associated files: such as original image for edited photos or video for live ones
 • See advanced image payloads, such as Semantic Segmentation Mattes and HDR Gain Map data
 • No data is shared; only photo coordinates are sent to Apple's servers to retrieve a human-readable address - and nothing else leaves your device
 • View the tags directly from other apps with the PhotInfo's Extension

PhotInfo app is in constant development, so new features will be added soon. Download now and stay tuned!

### 4/5 — Creates copies in my library?

*2026-06-10, version 8.22.0*

I can see the power of this app and I downloaded because I want to support individual creators. 

I was hoping to gain more control over metadata in my photos than just adding captions iPhone in the photos app.

It appears (even though I’ve selected “modify”) that the phone is generating a new image file with the metadata in it. 

Original file - IMG_6498.JPG // New file - IMG_E6498.JPG

This app will not be useful if I cannot MODIFY metadata of an existing image in my library without creating a duplicate.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2025-09-23*

Please keep up the good work! It’s the only app I found that is still updated, doesn’t cost a ridiculous amount of money and is designed well. ♥ from Russia.

### 5/5 — A truly useful app for photographers

*2024-11-09, version 8.02.2*

I’ve written before to praise this app which I have been using since it’s very early days many years ago. It is true that phones are now, finally, getting better at allowing changes to times, locations and comments but seeing and being able to edit the full EXIF information is invaluable. So many editing apps change the date to the current date, thus taking the photo out of chronological order. So easy to change it back with PhotInfo… A must have in anyone’s arsenal of photo tools.

### 5/5 — The perfect EXIF viewer and editor!

*2023-09-04, version 7.47.0*

This app is perfect. It’s very well designed. It looks nice. It’s got all the features you need. And there’s no annoying ads. No crazy permissions needed. Just a good solid app by a good developer. It’s honestly everything you need

### 5/5 — PhotoInfo

*2023-03-15*

Хорошая прога!

### 5/5 — Thabks

*2022-10-08, version 7.11.1*

Highly. usefull app if you need to remove all that nadty tracking data

### 5/5 — Best EXIF editor ever

*2022-09-07*

There is so much you can do with this app to adjust the metadata of your images. I couldn't manage without it. Sometimes editing software will change the date and time, let alone the location, to the date you edited. No problem here to correct things so that your images are put back into chronological order. See the metadata of similar images to discover the ones you want to keep or the edited ones. A perfect tool for anyone who cares about the images they have.

### 1/5 — Pointless - Doesn’t do Tags

*2022-08-15, version 7.12.1*

App doesn't edit tags so pointless really. Overhyped.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht!!

*2022-07-26*

Auf der Suche nach einer App, welche mein Erstellungsdatum der Fotos korrekt anzeigt bin ich auf diese hier gestoßen. Man kann das Datum zwar ändern aber bei mir wird es nicht mit abgespeichert. 
Danke für nichts!

### 2/5 — Cannot copy information

*2022-02-13*

I was hoping to copy info (in order to paste in GPS app) but appears not to have basic ability to copy.
