I have alot of photos that had their dates wiped during a move. I do have a backup of the photo's with correct EXIF (modified dates...or creation dates...whatever android uses to sort photos). Is there software that will bulk compare files from 2 different folders and transfer EXIF data from one to the other for the same files with different EXIF data?

jhead can do that:
jhead -te <file_with_exif> <targetFile>
or, as the manpage has it for your batch job, provided file names are identical:
jhead -te "originals/&i" *.jpg
On a Linux machine, you'd just need to install the package going by the same name (jhead)

Is this a command line program like exiftool or does it have a gui? Commented Jul 22, 2022 at 15:23

Command-line, as the examples show – and no GUI included (and I'm not aware of any, sorry). You can find the source here.– IzzyCommented Jul 22, 2022 at 19:03
