How do I read EXIF data on an IOS device

I usually follow UHH on a iPad2, works well but I have trouble reading EXIF data. My latest attempt uses an App called "Investigator" with which I select a downloaded image that has been saved to IOS Camera Roll. The majority of my attempts have yielded little or no information.

Usually if I download the same image on my Mac Book Pro via a Fire Fox add-in, I can find the EXIF data.

Is there an another IOS App I should look at?

Thanks, Bill

I don't have it yet but I noted on my friends ipad that Lightroom mobile reads the EXIF data to some extent as I was able to glean some of her camera settings. Perhaps others here have installed it and can speak to the details.

I went to Google and typed in "ipad app exif data", and there were several apps listed that would do this.

Have not got into LR Mobile yet; I'm still in Aperture and starting to transition to LR. Thanks for the tip, I'll look into it when I have transition to LR.

Should have gone to Google first and not the App Store. Found "EXIF Wizard" which seems to fill the bill for my usage. It's free and so far not a lot of advertisement. Hope it stays that way.

Thanks for your suggestion.
