Remove EXIF data from photos
Photos quietly carry GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers and timestamps. See exactly what each photo reveals — GPS gets flagged in red — then strip it all. JPG and PNG are cleaned losslessly: metadata segments are removed byte-exactly, pixels untouched.
How it works
- Drop your photos. Each one is scanned and its hidden data listed — camera, date, software, and GPS position if present.
- Check the rotation option. Some photos rely on a rotation flag; leaving the option ticked bakes the rotation in so cleaned photos still look right.
- Remove & download. One photo downloads directly; several arrive as a ZIP, all named -clean.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly is removed?
For JPG: the EXIF/XMP segment (camera, lens, GPS, timestamps, serial numbers), IPTC data and comments — removed byte-exactly, so image quality is mathematically identical. Color profiles (ICC) are kept so colors don't shift. For PNG: text, time and EXIF chunks. Other formats are re-encoded, which drops everything.
Do social networks strip EXIF anyway?
Most strip it on public display — but not always when a file is shared directly, sent through cloud links, or attached to email. If a photo of your home leaves your hands with GPS inside, it's out. Strip before sharing, not after.
Why is there a rotation option?
Many cameras store the photo sideways plus a “rotate me” flag in EXIF. Stripping the flag alone would make those photos display sideways, so by default the rotation is baked into the pixels for exactly those photos (a one-time re-encode). Untick it if you want strictly lossless output for every file.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Scanning and cleaning happen entirely in your browser — that's the whole point of the tool.
