Remove EXIF data — frequently asked questions
How do I remove EXIF data from a photo?
Drop a photo onto this page, then click Remove all metadata & download. The cleaned copy is created right in your browser and downloaded to your device. Nothing is uploaded — and for JPEG and PNG, the image isn't re-compressed.
Does removing metadata reduce photo quality?
No. For JPEG and PNG this tool removes only the metadata sections of the file and leaves the image data byte-for-byte untouched — no recompression, no quality loss. The photo looks identical, just without the hidden data.
What exactly gets removed?
Everything hidden: the GPS location where the photo was taken, the camera or phone model and serial number, capture date and time, owner and copyright names, editing software, and any XMP or IPTC data. What's left is just the picture.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. The whole process happens in your browser, on your own device. Your photo is never sent to a server, stored, or shared. Once the page has loaded, it even works offline.
Why remove metadata before sharing a photo?
Photos can carry the exact GPS coordinates of where they were taken — which may be your home — plus your device details and timestamps. Email, AirDrop, messaging apps, forums, and cloud links often keep this data, so anyone who receives the original file can read it. Stripping it protects your privacy.
Does it work with iPhone HEIC photos?
This web tool removes metadata losslessly from JPEG and PNG. For HEIC photos — and to clean your whole photo library at once — the EXIF Viewer by Fluntro app removes it directly on your iPhone or iPad.
Will the photo still open normally afterwards?
Yes. The cleaned file is a normal, valid image that opens everywhere as usual. Only the hidden metadata is gone; the picture itself is unchanged. You can verify with the EXIF viewer — it will show nothing.
Can I clean many photos at once?
This page cleans one photo at a time. To remove metadata from hundreds of photos in one go on iPhone and iPad, the EXIF Viewer by Fluntro app supports bulk removal right in your photo library. One-time purchase, no subscription.
Does removing GPS change how the photo looks?
No. GPS coordinates live in the metadata beside the image, not in the pixels, so removing them doesn't alter the picture in any way.
Is this EXIF remover free?
Yes — completely free, no account, no upload. For bulk removal and metadata editing on iPhone and iPad, the EXIF Viewer by Fluntro app is a one-time purchase.
Private by design
This tool was built so your photos never have to leave your device. Here's exactly what that means for your data.
Nothing is uploaded
Your photo is opened and read entirely inside your own browser. It is never sent to a server, stored, or shared — once this page has loaded, it even works with your connection switched off.
No account, no tracking
There is no sign-up, no advertising cookies, and no analytics watching what you do here. The only thing saved on your device is your light or dark theme preference.
Your location stays yours
If a photo contains GPS coordinates, they are shown only to you, on your screen. We never see them, and any map link opens only if you choose to click it.
Nothing to collect
Because no personal data leaves your device, there is nothing for us to collect, log, or process. The full details are in our Privacy Policy.
Metadata is read from your file exactly as it was saved and is shown “as is.” It can be missing, altered, or inaccurate — for example, timestamps depend on the camera's clock and GPS can be approximate — so please don't rely on it as proof for legal, forensic, insurance, or safety decisions. This tool is provided free and without warranty; see our Terms & Disclaimer for the details.
