This doesn’t sound like the worst thing in the world. Serial daters are just getting to know a lot of different people. Online tool for viewing image Exif data (metadata embedded within images), such as camera setting used when taking a photographs, date and location information, and thumbnails.
Every time I use a digital photo camera (phone or actual camera), the photo file includes the photo’s date and time when it was created. Often times however, digital photos come without metadata. Images downloaded from Facebook, Pintrest or messaging applications on our phones do not have any original metadata. This is normally a good thing since we don’t want GPS location information to appear on the internet tied to our pictures. However, if someone texts you a picture, especially containing family members, you would want to know the date when the picture was taken and maybe the location. Well, it’s not there…so you need to fix it yourself. Read on to learn a few easy ways to change photo date.

Even though practically all digital photos contain the correct photo date inside the image file, due to social media platforms, photo timestamp is many times altered. As long as you use your camera’s original photo file, a photo’s date should be correct. However, when you get photos from social media platforms like Pintrest, Facebook and even your phone SMS message application, most likely a photo’s timestamp will not be when the picture was actually taken. This has to do with security and privacy implementations which vary greatly across applications and platforms. In this article, we will explore how to change photo date for any digital image.
Where is the Photo Timestamp?
Before learning how to change photo date and time, you need to know what a digital photo date and time is. This piece of photo metadata is called a photo’s timestamp. Every camera records when a digital photo has been taken. This information is being recorded in the EXIF photo metadata and it is saved with a JPEG photo in a field called Date Picture Taken. Now, different software may call this field slightly differently, but they all refer to a digital photo’s timestamp.
There are several dates inside the EXIF metadata associated with a photo. The most important field, and the one you need to check is Date Taken. Other dates like File creation date, or digitization date, or others are not important when it comes to photo management software. All photo managers look for the field called Date Taken, inside the EXIF portion of image metadata.
One easy and free tool to edit EXIF data is XnView MP. You can download XnView MP from here.
1. Change Photo Date with XnView
Before we can attempt to change a photo date and time, we need to know what metadata is present in this photo. With XnView MP it’s easy to check.
a. Verify photo time stamp with XnView
Here is how to verify EXIF image metadata you already have:
- In thumbnails view, select the Thumbnails + Label view where some EXIF metadata will be displayed
- Check the two date fields: the first one is Date Modified and the second is Date Taken. Make sure at least the second one is correct. If not, follow the steps below to change photo date accordingly.

b. Change Photo Timestamp with XnView
Perform EXIF Date Change with XnView MP
Here are the steps to change photo date with XnView MP.
- Select the thumbnail of the image ( don’t double-click)
- Go to the menu toolbar and select Tools / Change timestamp
- Check the checkbox to generate EXIF record,
- Choose specific date and enter the date using the calendar provided.
- Check the Generate EXIF Metadata if needed if If you don’t have any photo metadata. You know you don’t have metadata if the fields in section 3 are empty. This would be the case especially for scanned photos
- Select the fields you want modified. My suggestion is to select all the EXIF fields so they would all have the photo creation date. I would leave the File: Modified date unchecked as that is a file system property and not an image property.
- Press the Write button as in my screenshot.
c. Verify Corrected Photo Timestamp with XnView
Now that you have created the missing EXIF record and inserted the correct date and time, you should have the Date Taken field in your photo’s EXIF metadata. But, it’s always good to verify. So, let’s check if we fixed our digital photo’s timestamp.

However, it looks like that a change in time is applied only to the first photo in your bulk selection while the date is applied to all selected photos. In addition to the classic Lightroom photo manager, Adobe also provides the Lightroom Mobile phone application, that also allows you to change a limited subset of photo metadata straight from your phone.
