From the picture-perfect photo on social media to a product image in a second-hand deal, or even a photo for legal evidence, MetaLens uncovers the hidden truth within your images. It provides an intuitive "Originality Score" based on a powerful metadata analysis engine. Key Features: Originality Score Analysis: Instantly check the authenticity of your photos with a score out of 100. Detailed Metadata Viewer: Get an easy-to-read summary of EXIF data, including camera model, lens, timestamp, resolution, and more. Editing Trace Detection: Detects which software, such as Photoshop or Instagram, was used for editing. Privacy Protection: Check if GPS location data is embedded in your photos and prevent privacy leaks before sharing. Our Privacy Commitment: 100% of the analysis process in MetaLens is done on-device. Your precious photos and their metadata are never sent to or collected by any external server.
