Features & Capabilities

ViewExif is a powerful metadata tool for your photos, letting you view, edit, and remove EXIF and IPTC data. It helps protect privacy by removing sensitive information before sharing, and its Photos app extension lets you access metadata without leaving your library.

Key features include displaying EXIF tags (dimensions, taken date, ISO, f-number, exposure time, focal length, and more), IPTC tags (keywords, description, star ratings), and geolocation on a map. You can add star ratings, keywords, and descriptions, or remove all metadata. It supports JPG, PNG, TIFF, HEIC, and RAW formats, and can share photos without metadata across Twitter, Facebook, email, and other apps, with a dark mode available.

User Reviews

ViewExif is praised for surfacing key EXIF data clearly and for easy per-photo metadata editing, with solid cross-device support. However, many reviews cite reliability and completeness issues: remove-metadata often fails, batch editing is missing, and the app crashes or isn’t compatible with some iOS versions. Video metadata support is limited, and data and keywords can be inconsistent across platforms. Billing concerns also appear. Overall, it provides useful metadata visibility and a clean UI, but stability, feature completeness, and billing practices are recurring problem areas.
Pros
  • Clear display of key EXIF data (camera, focal length) and location when desired.
  • Easy to add or edit metadata (descriptions, keywords, ratings).
  • Works across local and iCloud photos with a clean, well-designed interface.
  • Shows metadata across photos on multiple devices (iPhone and iPad).
Cons
  • Remove metadata feature is unreliable; data remains after attempting to strip it.
  • No batch editing; only single-photo edits, which is impractical for large libraries.
  • Stability issues: app sometimes crashes or doesn't work on certain iOS versions.
  • Video metadata support is limited or broken (GPS/video data not accessible).
  • Billing and paywall friction: recurring charges and complaints about paying for a tool that doesn’t meet expectations.

Useful for viewing metadata and adding information, but the remove metadata function simply does not perform. Data is still attached to photo.

Nobody should be sending/sharing/posting photos without using or going through this tool to do so. Safeguard yourself and loved ones by removing metadata
