Right now, the only metadata you can view in Photoshop for iPad is what you see in the Document Properties panel, which is what appears when you tap the gear icon when a document is open. It isn’t very much compared to the desktop version.

 

Kevin’s link shows how you can use Lightroom to view and edit somewhat more (but still very limited) image metadata on iPad. If you want to view and edit more than that, you have to use one of the metadata viewing/editing apps for iOS. However, non-Adobe metadata editing apps can’t edit Photoshop Cloud Documents or photos already imported into Lightroom. So if you want to edit photo metadata with an iPad app, you have to do it before you open that image in Photoshop or Lightroom for iPad, or on a copy you export from Photoshop or Lightroom on iPad.

Hi @fizzyfizz you could try viewing the metadata in Lightroom on the iPad:
