PhotInfo8.23.0 - App Store

PhotInfo is an app to view, edit, and manage photo metadata - such as location, camera info, date, time, and more - right from your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

# Why PhotInfo

Every digital photo contains more than just pixels - it holds hidden metadata like shutter speed, camera model, ISO, focal length, and even GPS location. PhotInfo gives you full access to this information, letting you explore, understand, and take control of what your photos say about you.

Whether you want to edit or remove metadata for privacy, correct missing or inaccurate info, or simply learn more about how your photos were taken, PhotInfo makes it easy. It's a powerful tool for photographers, teachers, and anyone who wants to get more from their images - or just keep their photo library tidy.

Real users include photography instructors and enthusiasts who use PhotInfo to improve their technique or teach others.

# What makes this app unique

. Detailed metadata access (Exif, Tiff, IPTC...)
. Human-readable + raw formats
. Smart photo navigation and album browsing
. The IPTC metadata editor with a template
. Actively maintained since 2013
. Lightweight: less than 4MB

# Features

With PhotInfo you can:

. View all the tags (Exif, Tiff, IPTC, etc.) from a picture: in raw or in human readable format
. Display an image with the main tags and the map of the location in a single view
. Share an image with or without tags
. Copy the key data or the content of individual tags
. Share all the tags in raw or in human readable format or as a JSON
. Edit or create a copy of the image with modified tags
. Modify IPTC tags using values saved in a template
. Create a copy of the image with the minimum content of info in the tags (related to image data structure, such as the image size, resolution and . orientation)
. Duplicate a photo with a custom name
. Edit a batch of photos
. See where the photo was taken, in different ways (map, address, coordinate)
. Favorite or delete a photo
. Quickly scroll through the albums of your iOS device
. Look at different pictures in burst photos (iOS only)
. See and share associated files: such as original image for edited photos or video for live ones
. See advanced image payloads, such as Semantic Segmentation Mattes and HDR Gain Map data
. No data is shared; only photo coordinates are sent to Apple's servers to retrieve a human-readable address - and nothing else leaves your device
. View the tags directly from other apps with the PhotInfo's Extension

PhotInfo app is in constant development, so new features will be added soon. Download now and stay tuned!
