Your image is read locally in your browser and never uploaded.
ToolsSoup's Image Metadata Viewer is a free online tool that instantly reveals the technical details of any image directly in your browser. Upload a PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP, or BMP and see its exact dimensions, file size, MIME type, format, aspect ratio, megapixels, color model, and bit depth. Everything is read locally on your device — no uploads, no sign-up, and your images never leave your computer.
What is image metadata?
Image metadata is the set of technical properties stored about an image, such as its width and height in pixels, file size, file format, color model, and bit depth. Some of these details are baked into the image's binary header (for example, a PNG's color type and bit depth or a JPEG's component layout), while others, like the file name and last-modified date, come from the file itself. This viewer reads the raw bytes of your image to report the format and color details and loads the picture to measure its true pixel dimensions.
How to view image metadata
Inspecting an image's properties with ToolsSoup takes just a few seconds:
- Click Choose an image and select the file you want to inspect.
- See the preview alongside the file name, type, and format.
- Read the exact dimensions, megapixels, aspect ratio, color model, and bit depth.
- Click Copy to copy the full metadata report as text.
Why check an image's dimensions and size?
Knowing an image's exact pixel dimensions and file size helps you decide whether it fits a layout, needs resizing, or should be compressed before uploading. Designers use the aspect ratio to crop consistently, developers check megapixels and bit depth to estimate memory use, and content creators confirm a file meets the size limits of a platform. Because everything is computed in your browser, you get these answers without installing software or sending your image to a third-party server.

Frequently asked questions
Is this image metadata viewer free?
Yes. Every tool on ToolsSoup is completely free to use, with no account, sign-up, watermarks, or hidden limits.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. The image is read locally in your browser using the FileReader and Image APIs, so it is never uploaded, stored, or seen by anyone but you.
Does this tool show EXIF data like camera model or GPS?
This viewer focuses on core technical metadata — dimensions, file size, format, color model, and bit depth — which it reads reliably from the file. Detailed EXIF tags such as camera make, exposure, or GPS coordinates are only present in some JPEGs and are not parsed here; use our dedicated EXIF viewer for that.
How does it measure the image dimensions?
The tool loads your image into the browser and reads its natural width and height in pixels, so the dimensions match exactly what the browser renders for any supported format.
What does the color or bit depth field mean?
For PNG and JPEG files the tool reads the header to report the color model (such as RGB, RGBA, grayscale, or YCbCr) and the bit depth per channel. For other formats this detail may not be available and is shown as a dash.
Which image formats are supported?
Any image your browser can display works, including PNG, JPG/JPEG, GIF, WebP, BMP, and SVG. Format and color details are richest for PNG and JPEG, while dimensions and file size are reported for all of them.
