What Change Photo Date Metadata does — and what it doesn’t
Write a selected date and time into a fresh JPEG EXIF metadata block.
Metadata is separate from what you see on the page
Camera dates can be stored inside JPEG EXIF fields independently of the visible pixels. Editing a date tag changes a piece of file metadata; it cannot establish when the photograph was actually taken.
The edge case to remember with Change Photo Date Metadata: image output can change file size, metadata or encoding even when the picture looks almost identical. Use the actual known date when accuracy matters.
When Change Photo Date Metadata isn’t the right endpoint
To change what appears visibly in a photograph, use image-editing tools. Date metadata is editable and should not be treated as independent evidence of when an event occurred.
