Exif Viewer Chrome app: take a look at your photos’ exif data fast and easy

François Beaufort is not only a Googler and our favorite news source for all things Chrome, but he is also an awesome developer! When he is not looking for Chrome news to share, he is out there developing content for us to enjoy. His latest creation is a Chrome app called Exif Viewer.

If you are a photographer or simply a photo enthusiast, you probably use exif data very often. This is data stored in your image files, which holds information about the image itself. It holds location, camara, settings and other information.

This app is a simple and single-purposed solution for those who simply want to see a photo’s exif data. Just tell the app what image you want to analyze and it will do all the work. Your image will be displayed to you, along with all the exif data details.

I often use exif data to remember when/where I took a photo. I also happen to love photography, so I always go back and study the settings I used. These are just a couple examples. How often do you guys take a look at a photo’s exif data?
