Photo Exifer for iOS is a useful application that lets you edit your photographs’ metadata from local storage as well as directly on iOS devices. There are many reasons why users need to update metadata for images and videos, and this application handles the job efficiently.
What is metadata?
In simple terms, metadata is information about other data. For example, a photograph’s metadata often includes the date, time, location, and camera settings. In some cases, it even stores digital signatures or the photographer's name.
Why do you need to change metadata?
There are several reasons for editing and changing metadata, with privacy and security being the most common. Let's say you want to share your photographs with somebody, but you do not want them to find out exactly where you were or what camera you used. Editing the metadata in such cases is highly practical, and Photo Exifer handles it for you.
Another major use is to add copyright details. This ensures that if the file circulates anywhere online, you keep the rights to your intellectual property. You can also correct basic errors, like an inaccurate timestamp or date, directly through Exifer.
What metadata can Photo Exifer change for you?
Photo Exifer is an application that allows you to view, add, update, and delete metadata, including TIFF, GPS, and EXIF data from photos in your local storage or on your connected iOS devices. As mentioned earlier, it also lets you tag photographs with copyrights, author details, and more.
