I have looked at many of the other similar questions but none of them seem to have a precise answer.

I'm working on an Android app that works with a lot of images. I am looking to add information to images by editing the value of their IPTC keyword tag (or other appropriate tags). I am using Metadata Extractor for reading metadata but this library doesn't support writing metadata.

I have looked at Apache Sanselan which doesn't seem to be appropriate because it has heavy dependency on java.awt (which is not available in Android). I'm aware of Imagero but I have not used it yet in the hope of finding a better open source library.

Has anyone come across such a library? I prefer it to be open source but even commercial suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

    [Here](https://github.com/dragon66/pixymeta-android) is an Android library I made to extract and insert metadata from/into images. – dragon66 Oct 13 '15 at 13:07

However there is still a lot of work to implement a simple to use api

Use http://sourceforge.net/projects/iim4j/ Won't work out of box, but can be adapted. I did it to add Copyright notice and Contact fields. Didn't tried other fields, as I didn't needed them. So that would be your bet.

Sorry, can't share the code.

  • IIM4J was moved to https://github.com/vnesek/nmote-iim4j ... It would be great if you could contribute changes for copyright notice and contact field. – Vjeko Jan 31 '15 at 14:15
