About this video

Fix Google Takeout Photo Metadata โ€“ Restore EXIF, Dates, GPS & Albums

When exporting photos from Google Photos using Google Takeout, images are often separated from their metadata. Important information such as capture dates, GPS locations, and album structure is stored in separate JSON files, which can make the photo library difficult to organize or import into other applications.

This extension automatically reconnects photos with their metadata, restores EXIF information, and organizes the results into clean folders.
