About this app

Fake Image Detector allows identifying fake images. By fake image, we mean the images that is altered using image manipulation software like Adobe Photoshop, Gimp etc. This app will be a great help to those who want to check authenticity of their photos. You can also identify which part of the image is faked or modified.

Fake image detector provides two unique methods to reveal hidden truth in your image.

Error Level Analysis (ELA)
ELA works on the basis that, an image when altered or tampered the compression ratio of the modified part will change when compared to the rest. By having a closer look at the ELA image, one can determine whether the image has been tampered with or not.

Metadata Analysis
Once you take a photo with your camera, a lot of information is embedded into the image (Like the name of camera, date of capure etc) which is known as Metadata, ie Data about Data. Metadata is altered when tampered with any image editing softwares. This anomaly can be detected using metadata analyzer.

Ratings and reviews

Scanned a picture I suspected was photo shopped. Right a way the app shows the picture is altered and it's not from a camera. And it has 3 elements. So I assumed the information was accurate. Then texted the results right away to my friend. Then I checked other pictures I took myself. Well the results were the same. So this app thinks even real pictures are fake. Don't waist your time with this app. You will get false readings, and maybe even become responsible for giving a false report.

Definitely doesn't work. I gave this app one photograph that was untouched and another photograph that was definitely photoshopped and it couldn't tell the difference between either one.

Absolutely useless. It suggested every single one of my camera photos I tested have been possibly tampered with or digitally altered!
