Read the original capture date from any photo.
Drop one image or hundreds. Image Date reads the EXIF metadata stored inside each file and shows when the photo was taken. Files never leave your browser.

What it reads
Image Date looks for three EXIF tags: DateTimeOriginal (when the shutter fired), DateTimeDigitized (when the image was first stored digitally), and DateTime (last modification time written by software).
When a photo has been edited, the modification time can drift away from the capture time. Image Date shows the capture time first, so you see the real moment the picture was taken.
Privacy
All parsing happens inside your browser. No image, no metadata, and no filename is sent anywhere. You can verify this in the developer tools network tab — there are no outbound requests when you process photos.
Close the tab and the results are gone.
