Photoshop Detection

How it works

Wondering if someone photoshopped an image before sending it to you? Our Authenticity Checker examines the metadata trail that editing software leaves behind. Photoshop, Lightroom, GIMP, and mobile editing apps all write their names into the EXIF Software field. The tool also checks for timestamp mismatches between original capture and last modification, compression inconsistencies from re-saving, and missing camera data that was stripped during editing.

Tips

A "Software: Adobe Photoshop" tag alone doesn't mean deception — many photographers process every image. Stronger evidence comes from combining signals: editing software detected plus timestamp gaps plus unusual compression. Upload the original file (not a screenshot or re-share) for the most accurate analysis.
