Actual Release build · six safe fixtures
This is the native app sequencing six photos from June 15, 1987 and adding known coordinates. The original and proposed metadata stay side by side for every image.
Where it earns its place
Sequence scanned prints so they appear in the decade they belong to.
Shift an entire shoot after discovering the camera date was off.
Remove embedded GPS data from a folder without touching the originals.
Restore known dates and coordinates before importing an old archive.
ExifBatch Output/exifbatch-manifest.jsonSource hashes verifiedThe metadata gap
Scanners, messaging apps and photo editors often give an old image today's date—or no useful date at all. Photos then land in the wrong decade, locations disappear and family timelines become noise.
ExifBatch gives that specialist cleanup job a focused workspace: original and proposed values side by side, one rule across a folder and a separate output you can inspect before importing.
A reversible batch workflow
Import JPEG and HEIC files explicitly. ExifBatch reads capture date, GPS location and pixel dimensions on this Mac.
Set one date, shift existing dates or sequence a folder from a known starting point and interval.
Inspect each photo and catch missing source dates or invalid coordinates before anything is written.
Receive a separate folder and JSON record containing source hashes, original values, updated values and failures.
{
"source": "scan-042.jpg",
"sourceSHA256": "8ce1...4a20",
"originalDate": null,
"updatedDate": "1987:06:15 14:30:00",
"output": "scan-042.jpg"
}Safety is the feature
ExifBatch never treats a successful write as enough. It checks source hashes, reads the output metadata back and records what actually landed in the exported copy.

Before you edit
Yes. ExifBatch can set one date, shift existing capture dates or create a chronological sequence across a selected JPEG or HEIC folder.
No. ExifBatch writes new copies to a separate output folder and verifies the source hash before and after export.
Yes. You can remove embedded GPS coordinates from a batch or set specific latitude and longitude values, with a preview before export.
ExifBatch preserves pixel dimensions and the original image type. The release fixture set verifies that exported photos remain readable at their source dimensions.
