xIFr is a Firefox browser extension for viewing EXIF, IPTC and XMP metadata in image files, including a map-view of

geolocation. It features "deep search" to target images that normally can't be selected by a simple right-click.

* [Install xIFr from Mozilla Firefox Add-ons](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/xifr/?utm_source=github.com)

In principle xIFr is a "cross-browser compatible" webextension. While it currently _ain't_ available via Google Chrome
or Microsoft Edge Web Stores, it still works with Chromium based browsers if you install [the webextension](https://github.com/StigNygaard/xIFr/releases)
directly from your local filesystem. There are however differences in functionality supported, and mostly limitations
when using xIFr in Chromium based browsers. So for now, only "officially" available for Firefox.

To create a browser extension from this repository, simply create a zip-file with content of the _WebExtension_ folder.

Some websites override the browser's default right-click context menu. But often you can just hold down the

[the webextension](https://github.com/StigNygaard/xIFr/releases) directly from your local filesystem (Also notice,
this is still a Manifest v2 type of extension). There are however differences in functionality supported, and mostly
