❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How does the file MIME-type inspector work?

It reads the first few bytes (magic numbers / file signatures) of your dropped file locally in the browser to identify its true MIME-type and format.

Are my uploaded files sent to any external server?

No. All file parsing, binary header reading, and MIME-type detection occur 100% locally inside your web browser.

What file formats can be inspected?

You can inspect any file type, including images (PNG, JPEG, GIF, WEBP), documents (PDF, ZIP), audio, and video formats.
