Remove EXIF Data from Photos

Drop a photo onto this page, then click Remove all metadata and download. The cleaned copy is created in your browser and downloaded to your device. Nothing is uploaded, and for JPEG and PNG the image is not re-compressed.

No. For JPEG and PNG the tool removes only the metadata sections of the file and leaves the image data untouched, so there is no recompression and no loss of quality. The photo looks identical, just without the hidden data.

It removes all EXIF and related metadata: the GPS location where the photo was taken, the camera or phone model and serial number, the date and time, owner and copyright names, editing software, and any XMP or IPTC data. What remains is just the image.

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.

Photos can carry the exact GPS location where they were taken, which may be your home, along with 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. Removing it protects your privacy.

No. GPS coordinates are stored as metadata beside the image, not in the pixels, so removing them does not alter the picture in any way.
