The Image Metadata plugin enhances the functionality of Obsidian by enabling users to edit image metadata directly within the app. With support for Exif and XMP metadata, this plugin allows annotations for JPEG, PNG, and WEBP file formats. Users can conveniently add or modify metadata tags such as Exif:ImageDescription and XMP:dc:description while viewing images, streamlining the process of managing and organizing image details. It is particularly useful for those who rely on metadata for cataloging or contextualizing images within their notes.

The PixNote plugin imports image files into the vault and creates a matching metadata note for each file. It can capture tags, source URLs and free text descriptions during import, then writes them into YAML frontmatter so the note stays easy to query later. When EXIF extraction is enabled, the plugin also pulls date, GPS coordinates and a derived location string from the file metadata. You can keep files organised by setting separate folders for images and metadata notes. Each generated note links back to the imported file and can store your description below the frontmatter. The plugin also supports PDF files in the saved file workflow, while its EXIF setting applies to image imports.
