Film doesnβt write EXIF. Your lab scans come back anonymous. Digital cameras stamp every frame with camera, lens, shutter, aperture, and time. Film does none of that β so Lightroom and Photos have no idea what body, lens, or exposure made the shot Edgeprint is the missing link: meter and log while you shoot, then match lab scans to that log and export files labeled like digital. YOUR COMPANION FOR SHOOTING FILM β’ Meter light for the roll youβre shooting β’ Log frames in one tap β sticky ISO, shutter, aperture, and lens β’ Notes, gaps, and optional GPS β incomplete is fine BACK FROM THE LAB β’ Import lab JPEGs, HEIC, TIFF, or a ZIP β’ Pair scans to your log (one-drag alignment when the lab is off) β’ Export tagged JPEGs with real EXIF: camera, lens, exposure, time, GPS, film stock β’ Originals stay on your device β TIFF/HEIC archive is never overwritten ALSO IN THE APP β’ Keepers & learn notes β’ Share contact sheets β’ Stats across your bag β’ iCloud log backup (optional device backup) BUILT DIFFERENTLY β’ No subscription Β· No ads Β· Local-first β’ Works in airplane mode β’ On your device β no account, no upload iOS first.

EXIF Magic

Every photo carries a hidden file of its own: where you stood, what camera you used, its serial number, the exact second you pressed the shutter. EXIF Magic shows you all of it, lets you remove any of it, and can even make your photo claim it was taken somewhere wild. NEW: SCRAMBLE LOCATION Swap a photo's real GPS for one of 548 of the weirdest places on Earth: a bubblegum-pink lake, a glacier that bleeds, a crater that has burned since 1971, the giant heads of Easter Island. Roll again as often as you like; you won't see a repeat until you've seen them all. Want pure chaos? Anywhere mode drops your photo at truly random coordinates. Just protecting a spot? Nearby shifts it a few miles. Want the whole story scrambled? Turn on Scramble everything and it also writes a random real camera and a date to match, from a 1997 floppy-disk Mavica to this year's iPhone. Then share the reveal card, which never includes where you really were. STRIP METADATA CLEANLY One tap removes all metadata: EXIF, GPS, TIFF, IPTC, XMP and maker notes. Another removes only the location and keeps your camera settings. Or choose exactly which parts to clear, with an option to keep the orientation tag so the photo doesn't rotate in other apps. EDITED A REAL PHOTO? REMOVE THE LEFTOVER TAGS Desktop editors leave software tags behind, and some platforms read those tags as signs that an image was made with AI. EXIF Magic removes the software, editor and XMP tags, so your real photograph is judged on its pixels. CHANGE THE GPS LOCATION Keep your favourite spot to yourself. Search a town, landmark, address or ZIP, or tap the map. EXIF Magic strips everything identifying, then writes back only the location you chose. ZERO QUALITY LOSS EXIF Magic never decodes and re-encodes your picture. It copies the original compressed image data and rewrites only the metadata, so the export is pixel-for-pixel identical: same dimensions, same colour profile, no extra JPEG loss. VERIFIED, NOT PROMISED Every export is re-read and checked before you can save it. If anything sensitive survived, the export is refused and you're told why. When a copy keeps data on purpose, EXIF Magic says so plainly. READ EVERY FIELD 128 named metadata fields, formatted the way photographers read them: Ζ/1.8, 1/250 s, +0.33 EV, ISO 3200, 24 mm. They're grouped into Image, Camera, Capture, Location, Annotations, File and Advanced, with a searchable list of every field and a plain-language summary of what the photo gives away. EDIT EXIF SAFELY Change the author, title, description, copyright, keywords, camera make and model, capture dates or GPS coordinates. Clear any field to delete the tag entirely. Every change goes onto a new copy. Your original is never modified unless you choose to replace it. COPY IT OUT Copy the whole metadata set as readable text or structured JSON, or long-press one row to copy just that value. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your photos never leave your device. Metadata is read and written on the phone with Apple's own ImageIO framework. No accounts, no analytics, no ads. Place search and place names come from Apple Maps. EXIF Magic doesn't need access to your photo library to read a photo, and it asks for more only if you choose to replace an original. Free. No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no watermark.
