What's Behind Your Photo

Be on top of your online identity, not to disclose your location accidentally

Photos taken by almost all smartphone cameras are geotagged. And all digital pictures contain information, called metadata, such as date taken, camera model, image resolution in addition to GPS coordinates.

Thus photos contain metadata that could be used to trace your current location or where your last family picture was taken. You may become the latest victim of the newest type of identity theft while you share photos on social networks or email photos to friends and/or relatives.

Sounds scaring? Want to be in control of your online identity and determine if you want others to know this type of information about you? The application What's Behind Your Photo can disclose the metadata within your photos, and help you to hide or manually update them including GPS locations to whatever you want.

It also features a handy functionality allowing you to add descriptions/comments to your pictures, which will be embedded in the pictures so that you can keep for your own memory or for your loved ones!
