#Apple photos exif data for free#
Normally priced at 99 cents, the app is available for free from the iOS App Store for a limited time. ViewExif is a handy utility for photographers of all levels, allowing them to easily see the camera and image information for each photo on their iPhone or iPad. You also have the option to “”Share with Exif” if you prefer to keep these details intact. Just tap this button and select “Share without Exif” to share the photo without the attached photo details. When you are viewing the Exif data using the extension, you will notice a sharing button in the upper left corner. Sharing this information may be fine if the photo is headed to Grandma’s inbox, but you may not want these details sent to someone you know only casually. The recipient of the email then can view these details and glean location information and other details about the photo. Though many online services such as Facebook already remove Exif information, these Exif details remain attached to a photo that is sent via email. One other handy feature of ViewExif is the option to remove Exif data from photos when sharing from the extension. As soon as the picture is taken, the Photos app will appear with details about the picture in the following order: image file name, date and time image was taken, camera. The app extension supports common image formats such as JPG, PNG, TIFF as well as Raw formats (CR2, NEF). Choose Get Info from the Photos app when right-clicking (or Control-clicking) any picture. Just open the image, tap the share button and then tap “ViewExif” to view all the Exif data. Once you enable ViewExif in an app, you can use the extension to view the details of the photo in just a few taps.
