Image Metadata Viewer

View the file-level metadata a browser can read from an image - dimensions, size, type, and last-modified date - read locally.

Upload an image below - this tool shows the file-level metadata your browser can actually read, entirely locally.

This file is read entirely in your browser and never uploaded anywhere.

This shows file-level metadata only - see the Limitations section for what this tool does and doesn't read from your image.

What Metadata Can a Browser Actually Read?

Standard browser APIs expose file-level information reliably: file name, size, MIME type, last-modified date, and (by decoding the image) its pixel dimensions. Deeper embedded metadata like EXIF camera data, GPS location, or IPTC captions requires parsing the image's internal binary structure, which most browser APIs don't do automatically.

Why Use This Tool?

Useful as a straightforward, honest way to inspect exactly what basic information is available about an image file without uploading it anywhere.

How to Use It

  1. Upload an image file.
  2. Review its file name, size, type, last-modified date, and pixel dimensions.

Important Notes

This tool clearly distinguishes what it actually reads (file-level metadata and dimensions) from deeper embedded metadata (EXIF/GPS/camera info) that it does not parse - it will never claim to show information it cannot actually access.
