View video metadata - MOV files, without uploading

See the location, date and device a video carries, starting from MOV video - here in this tab, with nothing uploaded.

How to view video metadata (MOV)

  1. Drop your MOV file in.
  2. Read what it carries.
  3. Remove it with one click if you want a clean copy.

Why this one stays private

Phone videos carry the place they were recorded as precisely as photos do, and far fewer people know it. Finding out should not mean uploading the clip.

Questions

Does this work with MOV files?

Yes - that is what this page is set up for. MOV is what iPhones record, with the location, make and model in its header.

Do videos have GPS data?

Phone videos usually do. iPhones write the position as a coordinate string in the file's header, Android phones in a location box, and action cameras and drones often record a whole GPS track alongside the picture.

Can it read a video my browser cannot play?

Yes. Only the file's header is read, never the picture, so HEVC, MKV and AVI files that will not play in the browser can still be inspected.
