xIFr is a viewer for EXIF, IPTC and XMP metadata in image files. Launch it from the browser's right-click context menu.
Note: If you ain't using a recent version of Firefox supported by latest version of xIFr,
there's probably an older version of xIFr supporting your browser.
Why another Exif viewer?Because I felt other Exif readers annoyed me or I felt they were missing something. It is probably a matter of personal preferences, but you should really check the
"deep search" feature. It works sooo well - in my own very humble opinion :-)
"Deep Search" feature?Most other Exif viewers for Firefox only works if you can right-click directly on an html
img element. But with "Deep Search" xIFr finds the image you want to see details about, no matter if it is below a layer or is defined as a background-image of another element. In 95% of the times, it just works as you expect. You won't even know if you actually were right-clicking directly on an img element or not. This is in my opinion the most important feature distinguishing xIFr from other Exif-viewers.
"Access your data for all web sites"?This permission is required for xIFr to be able to read meta-data in images, no matter which domain they are embedded from. But don't worry, there's no hidden agendas. See the
Privacy Policy.
Getting started...I have created a little
introduction page to quickly get started with xIFr and see what the "Deep Search" is all about:
www.rockland.dk/xIFr/start/.
But if you choose to skip this introduction, let me at least give you a quick little browser tip:
A handy browser tip!Some websites overrides the browser's default right-click context menu. But you can usually just hold down the
shift key while right-clicking, to get Firefox's native context menu back - and thus launch xIFr...
Open sourcexIFr is open source,
the repository is on GitHub.
xIFr is a fork of
wxIF which again is a WebExtension fork/port of the older "legacy type extension"
FxIF.
