Ever wondered what hidden information your photos contain? Every digital photo stores detailed metadata — from camera settings and GPS coordinates to timestamps and copyright info. EXIF Buddy makes all of this visible at a glance and lets you take full control. ā–ø INSTANT OVERVIEW Select any photo from your library and instantly see all metadata organized in clear, easy-to-read sections: image details, camera & lens info, exposure settings, date & time, location with map preview, and author information. ā–ø LOCATION ON THE MAP Photos with GPS data show the exact shooting location on an interactive map preview — including the resolved place name through automatic reverse geocoding. ā–ø FILE SIZE & IMAGE DETAILS Quickly check file size, dimensions, resolution, color profile, and format — essential info that the built-in Photos app doesn't show you. ā–ø SHARE EXTENSION Access metadata directly from the Photos app or any other app via the Share menu. No need to switch apps — just tap Share and select EXIF Buddy. ā–ø DESIGNED FOR iPHONE & iPAD Enjoy optimized layouts for both devices. On iPad, a side-by-side split view lets you browse photos and inspect metadata simultaneously. — EXIF BUDDY PRO (One-Time Purchase) — Unlock the full editing power: ā–ø EDIT ALL METADATA Modify any field — aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, camera model, artist, copyright, description, and many more. ā–ø CORRECT DATE & TIME Fix timestamps on individual photos using a convenient date picker. ā–ø EDIT GPS LOCATION Add, change, or remove GPS coordinates. Perfect for geotagging photos from cameras without built-in GPS. ā–ø BATCH EDITING Select up to 50 photos and apply changes to all at once — set artist, copyright, or GPS data across an entire series in seconds. ā–ø TIME SHIFT Correct wrong timestamps across multiple photos by shifting hours and minutes forward or backward. The ideal solution when your camera had the wrong timezone set while traveling. ā–ø REMOVE ALL METADATA Strip all metadata with one tap for maximum privacy before sharing online. ā–ø SAVE & SHARE Save edited photos as new copies to your library or share them directly via AirDrop, Messages, Mail, and more. One-time purchase. No subscription. Pay once, use forever. Your privacy matters: All processing happens entirely on your device. Your photos are never uploaded to any server.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: EXIF Buddy at none against Cutcap's shown. Cutcap's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
