Download MetaImage 2.3.1 (Mac) – Download Free

Every digital camera attaches some kind of information to photos, such as device settings, image properties, date and time, and location where it was taken. Extra information sometimes needs to be added, sometimes revised, and often removed outright in the interest of an individual’s privacy.

meta image is an application designed to simplify the process of managing the metadata of an entire album. It presents information in a visually intuitive manner and allows you to quickly modify a large number of entries for one or more images, while also supporting presets.

Why metadata needs to be changed

The information stored by the camera is often incorrect and needs to be edited, but you may also want to include other data such as copyright information, descriptions, or tags. Optionally, if your scanned image lacks location information, you can add that information as well.

Most commonly, users want a quick way to remove metadata that could compromise their privacy. If you take a photo of your home and want to post it online, you probably don’t want the person downloading the photo to know exactly where you live.

Intuitive metadata editing

MetaImage allows you to import multiple photos at once and edit them individually or together. If there is information you want to remove, you can select each available file and simply remove a value from all files. You can add new information in the same way.

To make things easier, you can filter all available tags and specify which ones should be displayed first. You also have a useful map view that shows the coordinates of each image, and a location finder for quickly adding GPS data.

Use presets to speed up your work

Since this application is primarily aimed at users who need to edit a large number of files, we encourage you to create presets for common operations and then apply them to one or more images. For example, you can create a preset for removing location data and use it to process an entire album in seconds.

If you need a more efficient way to add, edit or delete metadata, MetaImage is a great tool for the job. It’s easy to get started, highly configurable, and capable of fast batch processing.
