Why Remove EXIF Metadata?
Every photo you take contains hidden metadata that can reveal sensitive information about you, your location, and your devices. This tool shows you exactly what's hidden in your images.
GPS Coordinates
Smartphones embed exact GPS coordinates in photos. This reveals:
- Your home address from indoor photos
- Your workplace location
- Places you frequent
- Travel patterns and routines
Device Information
EXIF data reveals your equipment:
- Camera make and model
- Lens specifications
- Phone model and OS version
- Software used for editing
Timestamps
Date and time information shows:
- Exact time photos were taken
- Your daily schedule
- Time zone information
- When you're away from home
AI Generation Data
AI-generated images may contain:
- Generation prompts
- Model information
- Creation parameters
- Platform identifiers
How This Tool Works
- Upload your image - We analyze it locally in your browser
- See all hidden metadata - Including GPS coordinates if present
- Scrub the data - Re-encode through HTML5 Canvas to strip all EXIF
- Download clean version - Safe to share without privacy concerns
â 100% Private Processing
All processing happens in your browser using JavaScript. Your images are never uploaded to any server. We can't see your photos or their metadata - everything stays on your device.

Always scrub metadata from team photos, office images, and user-generated content before publishing on your website. This protects privacy and reduces file sizes slightly, improving page load times. For stock photos, keep copyright metadata intact.
