Frequently Asked Questions

General

What is Metadata Fix?

It's a web tool that repairs and synchronizes face region metadata in your photos across MWG, Microsoft Photo, and IPTC Extension standards. This is useful when face tags break after rotation, re-editing, or moving photos between different software.

What file formats are supported?

JPEG, PNG, HEIC/HEIF, and WEBP are fully supported. TIFF files can be uploaded and will be converted to JPEG for processing.

Does it work with Tag That Photo, DigiKam, Lightroom, or other apps?

Yes. We write metadata using the same standards those applications read, so face tags will be recognized correctly after export.

Pricing & Credits

Do I need a subscription?

No. The Free plan gives you 5 images per month at no cost. If you need more, you buy a one-time Image Pack. There are no recurring charges.

Do Image Pack credits expire?

Never. Credits remain in your account until you use them, regardless of how long it takes.

Can I stack multiple Image Packs?

Yes. If you buy two Small packs, you'll have 100 credits. Purchases always add to your existing balance.

What happens when my pack runs out?

You fall back to the 5 images/month free allowance. Buy another pack anytime to top up.
