Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Exif Metadata at 4.6 against Image Info's 2.5. Exif Metadata also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (6K vs 4). Image Info's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Exif Metadata holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Exif Metadata has 6K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Image Info's written reviews are positive against 42% of Exif Metadata's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Image Info ships an update every 6 months, Exif Metadata fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 6, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
