Remove EXIF & hidden metadata from photos
Strip GPS location, camera details and editing fingerprints from JPG and PNG files. Processes files locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded, and the pixels are copied byte-for-byte with zero quality loss.
How it works
- Drop a JPG or PNG. It stays on your device.
- See exactly which metadata blocks were found and removed.
- Download the clean copy — pixels bit-identical to the original.
Frequently asked questions
What metadata do photos leak?
JPEGs from phones typically embed GPS coordinates of where the photo was taken, the exact time, your camera or phone model, and editing-software fingerprints — all invisible in the image itself.
Does removing metadata reduce image quality?
No. This tool removes whole metadata blocks and copies the image data byte-for-byte — it never re-encodes, so the pixels are bit-identical to the original.
Is my photo uploaded for processing?
No — that would defeat the point. The photo is processed locally in your browser and never leaves your device.
Which metadata is removed and which is kept?
Removed: EXIF (including GPS), XMP, IPTC/Photoshop blocks, comments and timestamps. Kept: color profiles and format headers, so the image still displays exactly the same everywhere.
Can removing EXIF rotate my photo?
It can. Stripping EXIF also removes the Orientation tag, so a photo that relied on it to display upright may appear rotated in some viewers. This is inherent to no-re-encode stripping: rotating the pixels themselves would mean re-encoding them.
