Image upload from iPhone strips exif data

Question

I\'ve built a website which allows image uploading and once an image is uploaded , some specific information about the photo is displayed. Uploading pictures from computers

Answer 1

I am currently using iOS 8.1.1 and I also noticed this unlovely behavior of cutting certain Exif data from photos when uploading via mobile safari. I noticed the same behavior with a fresh installation of:

• Opera mini
• Chrome
• Mercury

So my assumption is that behavior is not browser related, but its the camera app when transferring the photo to another application (not authorized by Apple).

Does anyone found an official statement from Apple for this Exif data cutting?
