sylikc / pyexiftool

PyExifTool (active PyPI project) - A Python library to communicate with an instance of Phil Harvey's ExifTool command-line application. Runs one process with special -stay_open flag, and pipes data to/from. Much more efficient than running a subprocess for each command!

i'm not sure how to use Python on Android... but bottom line is that the exiftool executable is not installed anywhere. it needs https://exiftool.org to be on the PATH
