What Exif Lens is

Exif Lens is an iPhone app for viewing, editing, and removing photo metadata. It displays EXIF details such as file information, camera settings, and GPS coordinates. Users can change capture dates and times, update locations by searching for a place or dropping a map pin, and edit camera fields including maker, model, lens, ISO, aperture, shutter speed, and focal length. An interactive dial sets camera compass direction.

For privacy, the app can remove GPS data or all metadata before sharing. Batch tools apply date or location changes, or metadata removal, to multiple selected photos. The library can be filtered by favorites, media type, or location status; changes save to the photo library, and sharing can include or omit metadata. The maker says processing stays on the device, with no servers, uploads, tracking, analytics, third-party SDKs, or data collection. The App Store listing requires iOS 17.0 or later. The free plan is free and covers viewing metadata and browsing, filtering, and sorting the library. Pro editing features are listed at $0.99 per month or $9.99 per year.
