FAQ
Does view image metadata upload my photo?
No. The selected file is read and processed inside your browser. Closing or resetting the page releases its temporary preview URLs.
What happens to image metadata in the output?
The report displays readable metadata but does not alter the original file.
Can I use this tool on a phone?
Yes, for ordinary photos. Very large images can exceed a phone browser's memory, so reduce the source dimensions first if processing stops.
Which image formats work best?
JPEG provides the richest readable EXIF data. PNG and WebP still provide file size, MIME type, and decoded dimensions.
Why can the downloaded file size change?
The downloaded item is a compact JSON report rather than a copy of the image.
