I have used this free online EXIF reader  http://regex.info/exif.cgi

It works.  Keep it mind, it doesnt matter where the picture came from (facebook, whatsapp, etc.).  EXIF is a standard metadata format embedded in the picture.  The problem is many sites will strip such data.  Facebook strips a ton of the useful info out (date, location, camera name, etc.)

Try it with a picture you've taken directly that hasnt been uploaded/downloaded to see the types of data fields that are often present.

Though it is a gallery replacement app, QuickPic shows me exit data if an image has it when I open the Details item for the particular image on the settings menu. Though I can also upload a pic (from sdcard) to the website wander provided on my android phone as well...the browser just asks me what app I want to use to select a file and I choose Gallery or QuickPic and it uploads just like a normal browser on a PC.

Also, isnt the whole point of SD cards is that they removable/interchangeable storage?  Every PC had an SD-card reader these days.  Cant you take it out of the phone, insert into a PC, and access it like a normal drive?

Or cant you email the content to yourself?  from the phone to your pc?  

I dont quite understand the nature of the error you are seeing.

I am curious - could the Exif data info also show where a photo was taken?

Thanks in advance!
