Exifspot

Photo EXIF location viewer

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Exifspot is a calm, single-purpose viewer for everything your camera quietly writes into a photo: the EXIF, the TIFF tags, the GPS coordinates, the lens model, the exposure - and the position of the sun at the moment you pressed the shutter. WHY EXIFSPOT - Modern photo apps hide your camera's metadata behind a tiny "i" button or paywall it inside a $20 RAW editor. Exifspot is the focused, $0.99 alternative. - Pick a shot, scroll the table, copy any field. Done. - Built for the photographer who just wants to know "what was I shooting at?" without booting up Lightroom. WHAT YOU GET - Camera: make, model, software version. - Lens: model name (with a 68-entry friendly-name dictionary that turns "EF50mm f/1.4 USM" into "Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM Prime"), focal length in mm, and the 35-mm equivalent. - Exposure: aperture as f/2.8, shutter as 1/250 s, ISO as ISO 400, EV bias, metering mode, white balance, flash status. - GPS: precise coordinates with N/S/E/W signs, altitude (above or below sea level), compass heading - and a dark-mode map with a dropped camera-aperture pin showing exactly where the photo was taken. - Sun at capture: azimuth and elevation calculated on-device using the NOAA solar-position algorithm. We tell you whether the moment was dawn, sunrise, morning, solar noon, afternoon, sunset, dusk, or night - and flag golden-hour and blue-hour shots automatically. - File: pixel dimensions, megapixels, file size, color space, EXIF orientation, photo ID. - Export: copy the metadata as JSON, copy a plain-text summary, or share a .json sidecar to any app. HOW IT WORKS - Tap "Pick a photo" - the iOS photo picker opens. - Exifspot reads the bytes locally and shows the full metadata table. - Recently inspected photos are saved to a local history (just the metadata snapshot, never the image bytes). PRIVATE BY DESIGN - Exifspot uses the system photo picker, so the app NEVER asks for full photo-library access. It only sees the bytes of the photos you explicitly pick. - No accounts, no analytics, no telemetry, no network calls, no ads, no subscription. - The sun position is computed offline using a published deterministic algorithm - no WeatherKit, no API. - The PrivacyInfo manifest declares only the standard UserDefaults reason code (CA92.1) for storing your inspection history. ONE-TIME PURCHASE Exifspot is a single $0.99 purchase. No in-app purchases. No upsells. No "pro" tier. Everything above is the whole product. GREAT FOR - Photographers comparing their settings across a shoot. - Bloggers documenting "what camera was that?" for a writeup. - Hobbyists curious where their travel photos were taken. - Anyone who wants to know if a beach shot really WAS taken at golden hour. Open Exifspot, pick a photo, and finally see what your camera has been writing into every shot.
