I used a code similar https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/exif-data.57419/ and read whole metadata for certain jpg-file (a photo).
Some fields are filled, but I was not able to retrieve GPS-coordinates, smartphone model etc. Meanwhile, for example, Windows Explorer shows this information.
Any ideas, what can be wrong ? It's possible to suspect objective-c code. But I used different samples from stackoverflow. Maybe LoadBitmap ?
Reading stackoverflow's comments, I understood that IOS specially strips Exif for security reasons.
But there is a workaround - to read exactly a file, not UIImage.
