User Reviews

Most reviews indicate Metadata often fails to deliver reliable photo metadata. The top complaints are missing or wrong location data, lack of key EXIF fields, and data that is inconsistent across images. Users also report bugs, reliability issues, and a clunky UI. A minority find value in viewing metadata not shown by native Photos and in swiping to access location data, and a few note it is easy to use and free to try. Overall, reliability and accuracy are the primary drawbacks.
Pros
  • Reveals metadata not shown by native iOS Photos
  • Easy to use / straightforward user interface
  • Location data (altitude/geo) accessible by swiping
  • Offers a free option to try and see its functionality
Cons
  • Missing or incorrect location data / geotags on many photos
  • Metadata is incomplete, lacking key EXIF fields (aperture, ISO, shutter speed, etc)
  • Data often inaccurate or inconsistent across images (e.g., wrong locations)
  • Bugs / reliability issues and sometimes unusable
  • Clunky UI / poor design

The app consistently does not work in new and novel ways.

How can it be so bad use designed?

Not only does this app not show any meaningful metadata, it modifies the picture opened in the app, leaving it with less tonal range, less brilliance, and less contrast. This would be a zero-star rating if possible.
