What metadata gets removed?

Re-encoding through the canvas strips embedded EXIF data, including GPS location, camera and device model, and capture timestamps. The visible image is kept.

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. The whole process runs in your browser, so your photos and their metadata never leave your device.

Why should I remove EXIF data?

Photos can reveal where you live or work through GPS coordinates, plus the device you used and when. Removing this protects your privacy before sharing online.

Will the image itself change?

If you export to PNG or lossless WebP the pixels are preserved exactly. Exporting to JPG re-encodes the image, which may change pixels very slightly.

Can I clean many photos at once?

Yes. Add many files together and process them all in a single batch.

Does this remove a visible watermark or text in the image?

No. It only removes hidden metadata. Anything painted into the actual pixels, such as a visible watermark, stays in the image.

Yes. There are no watermarks, sign-ups, or file-size limits beyond what your device can handle.

Share photos without revealing hidden data

Photos quietly carry hidden EXIF metadata: the exact GPS location where they were taken, the camera and phone model, and timestamps. By re-encoding your image through the Canvas API, this tool produces a clean copy with that metadata stripped out, while keeping the picture itself. Everything happens locally in your browser, so your originals are never uploaded to a server.

How to remove image metadata

Add your photos Drag and drop your JPG, PNG or WebP files, or click to select them from your device.
Choose output format Pick JPG, PNG or WebP. PNG and lossless WebP keep the pixels exactly; JPG re-encodes them.
Clean the metadata Each photo is re-encoded in your browser, producing a copy with the embedded metadata removed.
Download Save your cleaned photos individually or all together.

Your photos stay private

All processing happens directly in your browser. Your photos are decoded and re-encoded on your own device with the Canvas API and are never uploaded to any server. We collect only anonymous, aggregated usage statistics (such as how often the tool is used or succeeds) to improve it — never your images, filenames, metadata, or any personal data.

Verify it yourself: Open your browser DevTools → Network tab and run the tool: no request ever carries your file. Everything happens on your device.
