FAQ
- Why is GPS missing?
- Location tags appear only if the capturing device recorded GPS and the file still contains EXIF.
- Can I remove metadata with this tool?
- No. This tool only displays metadata. Use the image-compression tool with metadata removal enabled to create a new copy without it.
- Does every PNG contain EXIF?
- No. PNG files may contain different types of metadata, but many do not contain standard EXIF information.
