    What's hidden inside an image?

    An image file is more than pixels. PNG chunks, JPEG segments, WebP flags and EXIF tags reveal how the file was produced, which colour profile it uses and which device captured it.

    Information shown

    • The real file format, independent of the extension
    • Colour type, bit depth and transparency (alpha channel)
    • Embedded ICC colour profile
    • Camera, lens, capture date and software
    • GPS coordinates, with a clear privacy warning if present

    For developers and photographers

    Ideal for diagnosing colour problems, unexpected file sizes or wrong extensions. The file is parsed in your browser and never sent anywhere.

    How to use Image Metadata Viewer

    1. Choose the image file to inspect.
    2. Review format, colour and profile information.
    3. Look through the EXIF and camera section.
    4. If there's a GPS warning, clean the metadata before sharing.

    Why use this tool?

    See an image's full technical identity without opening a photo editor, and spot privacy-sensitive GPS data immediately.

    FAQ

    How do I remove metadata?

    Use the EXIF Viewer and Remover to strip camera and GPS data before sharing a photo.

    What is an ICC profile?

    A colour space definition, such as sRGB or Display P3, that keeps colours consistent across screens and printers.

    What if the file extension is wrong?

    The tool detects the real format from the content and shows the mismatch.
