What this checks

JSON sidecar matching, supplemental metadata suffixes, truncated sidecars, duplicate filenames, split folders, malformed JSON, videos, HEIC files, and field presence for dates, GPS, and descriptions.

What this refuses to claim

It does not repair metadata, rewrite EXIF, upload your archive, log into Google, or guarantee that a destination app will import every field correctly.

Fallback path

If folder selection is unavailable in your browser, use multiple file selection or the sample mode. Pasted manifest mode can check filename matching without reading private media or JSON contents.
