Your files never leave your device — everything runs in your browser.

Photos often contain EXIF data: shooting date, camera/phone model, and sometimes GPS location. This tool removes all of that metadata by redrawing the image (via canvas) — useful for hiding your location before sharing.

How to Use

  1. 1Drag and drop your image, or select it.
  2. 2The image is automatically re-processed and stripped of metadata.
  3. 3Download the cleaned image — your original file stays on your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does removing EXIF data reduce image quality?

No, only the hidden metadata (GPS, camera model, timestamp) is stripped — the visible image pixels themselves are not degraded.

What specific metadata gets removed?

Common EXIF fields are removed, including GPS coordinates, camera/phone model, shooting date and time, and camera settings like aperture or ISO.
