Tips for getting EXIF Viewer right

- Compare shutter/ISO/aperture across shots that succeeded vs failed to learn what changed
- Social platforms usually strip EXIF on upload; email and cloud links often don't
Fields you'll see
| Field group | Examples | Privacy relevance |
|---|---|---|
| Camera | Make, model, lens | Identifies your equipment |
| Exposure | f-number, ISO, shutter, focal length | Harmless, useful for learning |
| Time | Original date/time taken | Reveals routine patterns over many photos |
| Location | GPS latitude/longitude (if enabled) | The sensitive one — check before sharing |
Removing metadata before sharing
Viewers can't strip EXIF — export a clean copy instead. Screenshot the photo, or re-save through an editor that drops metadata, then share that version. Verify with this viewer that GPS is gone from the exported copy.
