ExifTool Reader vs Pro for Mac
Both apps help you read EXIF, IPTC, and XMP locally on your Mac. The choice is whether you need a lightweight inspector or professional export workflows.
ExifTool Reader
Metadaten anzeigen und exportieren
Choose Reader when you want a fast, local metadata readout with copy, export, and print from the app.
ExifTool Reader Pro
Der Reader, der auch schreibt
Choose Reader Pro when you need Excel export and Apply — write edits back to the original files.
ExifTool Reader is built for instant, readable metadata checks: drop a file or folder and review EXIF, IPTC, and XMP before you edit, archive, or share.
ExifTool Reader Pro reads folder metadata into Excel and can write your edits back to the files (Apply). Four save modes: new list, append, template, or apply. Excel-ready UTF-8 output, and configurable ExifTool options and date formats.
Prices, version requirements, and feature lists come from the Mac App Store. Both apps are sold only there—no direct downloads on this website.
