Remove EXIF Data from Photos
Clean your photos of embedded metadata before sharing them: GPS coordinates, device serials, capture timestamps and editing history are all removed. The image itself looks identical — orientation is preserved and photos are re-encoded locally in your browser.
🔒 100% private — files never leave your browser
Drag & drop photos here
batch supported — stripped locally, never uploaded
Example and output check
Open a photo in EXIF Viewer, then re-encode it here and inspect the downloaded copy again. Camera/GPS fields should be absent; never assume the original file was modified.
Before you use the result
This tool strips metadata by decoding and re-encoding pixels. JPEG quality can change. Color appearance and orientation should be checked, and sensitive visible information remains in the pixels.
How to use the Remove EXIF Data
- 1 Drag in one or more photos (JPG, PNG, WebP).
- 2 Click "Strip Metadata" — the image is re-encoded locally without any metadata.
- 3 Download the clean files — verify with the EXIF Viewer if you like.
Frequently asked questions
Does removing GPS hide a visible address?
No. Street signs, faces and addresses visible in the image remain. Metadata removal changes stored fields, not the scene.
Is the original overwritten?
No. You download a new file. Keep it separate and inspect that copy before sharing.
