About Remove EXIF / Metadata

Photos from a phone carry hidden EXIF metadata: GPS coordinates, the exact date and time, the device model and often a serial number. Anyone who receives the original file can read all of it. This tool redraws each photo and saves it without any of that, so what you share is only the picture. The stripping happens on your device, never on a server.

How to use Remove EXIF / Metadata

  1. Add the photos you are about to share, publish or upload, a whole batch at a time if you like.
  2. Click Remove metadata.
  3. Read the label on each result: GPS + EXIF removed, EXIF removed, or no EXIF found.
  4. Download the clean copies, named with a -clean suffix, or take them all as a ZIP.

What people use it for

  • Posting house or property photos for rent or resale without revealing the address.
  • Uploading a profile or ID photo to a portal without handing over location and camera data.
  • Sharing pictures of children or your home in a social media or community group.
  • Sending images to a client without exposing which device and software you used.

Good to know

Output keeps the original pixel dimensions and format: JPG stays JPG, PNG stays PNG, WEBP stays WEBP, and anything else is saved as PNG. JPGs are re-encoded at 95% quality, so the change is effectively invisible but it is still a re-compression. The GPS and EXIF labels are detected in JPG files only.

Frequently asked questions

Does this really remove the GPS location?
Yes. The photo is redrawn as raw pixels on a canvas and re-encoded, so no EXIF, GPS, embedded thumbnail or maker-note data from the original can survive into the new file.
Why does it say no EXIF found on my PNG?
The detector only reads EXIF markers inside JPG files. The clean copy is still written from scratch, so PNG text chunks and other metadata are dropped regardless of the label.
Will the photo look different afterwards?
Dimensions and appearance stay the same. JPGs go through one re-encode at 95% quality, which is not visible in normal viewing, while PNG output is written losslessly.
