What

An Exif Tag library editor that enables direct viewing and editing of EXIF Meta Data tags in Jpeg files on the iPhone.

Uses

The most obvious use is to manage Geo location tags into the image. However, it is also possible to edit any of the Exif tags or add your own that are not in the spec.

This is really useful for image uploads from the phone for sites like Picasa and Flickr.

  2. Full support for GPS tag formats
  3. Roundtrips existing tags in the image
  4. Read/Write access to all EXIF tags
  5. Read access to JFIF data
  6. Allows custom handlers to override normal processing of any tag data
  7. Allows extra handlers to be registered to add user defined tags
  8. Builds as a static library which can be imported easily into an iphone project
