Quick Tool Overview

Add Date Stamp to Photo prints a date onto an image, and can read it from the photograph's own EXIF rather than making you type it — so a folder of holiday pictures gets the day each was actually taken. The classic orange seven-segment camera stamp sits alongside plainer styles for documentation.

About the Add Date Stamp to Photo

The orange date in the bottom right of a photograph is a specific artefact — the seven-segment display a film compact burned onto the negative — and it has come back as a deliberate style.

The date can be typed, or read from the photograph's own EXIF data, which is the more useful case: a folder of holiday pictures can be stamped with the day each was actually taken rather than one date for all of them. Format, position, size and colour are adjustable, and the classic orange seven-segment look sits alongside plainer options for documentation, where a legible date matters more than nostalgia.

Key features of the Add Date Stamp to Photo

Reads the EXIF date

The capture date is taken from the file itself, so each photo gets its own date rather than one typed for all of them.

Classic camera style

The orange seven-segment look that film compacts burned onto the negative, reproduced rather than approximated.

Plain styles too

For documentation, where a legible date matters more than nostalgia.

Any format

Day-month-year, ISO, month names — the format is yours rather than fixed.

Position and size

Bottom right is traditional, but any corner works, scaled as a percentage of the image.
