ExifInterface

Kotlin |Java

public class ExifInterface
extends Object

java.lang.Object
↳	android.media.ExifInterface

This is a class for reading and writing Exif tags in various image file formats.

Note: This class has known issues on some versions of Android. It is recommended to use the AndroidX ExifInterface Library since it offers a superset of the functionality of this class and is more easily updateable. In addition to the functionality of this class, it supports parsing extra metadata such as exposure and data compression information as well as setting extra metadata such as GPS and datetime information.

Supported for reading: JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIF, DNG, CR2, NEF, NRW, ARW, RW2, ORF, PEF, SRW, RAF, AVIF.

Supported for writing: JPEG, PNG, WebP.

Note: JPEG and HEIF files may contain XMP data either inside the Exif data chunk or outside of it. This class will search both locations for XMP data, but if XMP data exist both inside and outside Exif, will favor the XMP data inside Exif over the one outside.

Returns true if thumbnail image is JPEG Compressed, or false if either thumbnail image does not exist or thumbnail image is uncompressed.

Returns
`boolean`

saveAttributes

Added in API level 5

public void saveAttributes ()

Save the tag data into the original image file. This is expensive because it involves copying all the data from one file to another and deleting the old file and renaming the other. It's best to use setAttribute(java.lang.String, java.lang.String) to set all attributes to write and make a single call rather than multiple calls for each attribute.

This method is supported for JPEG, PNG, and WebP files.

Note: after calling this method, any attempts to obtain range information from getAttributeRange(java.lang.String) or getThumbnailRange() will throw IllegalStateException, since the offsets may have changed in the newly written file.

For WebP format, the Exif data will be stored as an Extended File Format, and it may not be supported for older readers.

For PNG format, the Exif data will be stored as an "eXIf" chunk as per "Extensions to the PNG 1.2 Specification, Version 1.5.0".

Warning: Calling this method on a DNG-based instance of ExifInterface may result in the original image file being overwritten with invalid data on some versions of Android 13 (API 33).

Throws
`IOException`

setAttribute

Added in API level 5

public void setAttribute (String tag, 
                String value)

Set the value of the specified tag.

Parameters
`tag`	`String`: the name of the tag. This value cannot be `null`.
`value`	`String`: the value of the tag. This value may be `null`.
