What MetaFix: EXIF Editor is
MetaFix: EXIF Editor is an Android app for viewing and managing photo metadata directly on your device. It can edit fields such as dates, camera and lens details, author, copyright, and description. For location data, you can enter GPS coordinates, choose a position from a map, or clear GPS metadata from an edited copy. Batch editing and templates help when you need to apply changes across multiple photos or reuse settings. MetaFix processes only photos you select, locally, and edited images are saved as new copies so the originals remain unchanged. SensorLinQ Apps says the app does not upload, store, or process photos on its servers. No account is required. The Free plan costs nothing and includes basic single-photo editing, banner ads, and a daily edit limit. Remove Ads also has no listed price and keeps the free plan’s basic editing limits.
