Remove EXIF Data
Remove all EXIF metadata from your images β GPS location, camera model, timestamp, and more. Protect your privacy before sharing photos online. One click, instant results.
How to use Remove EXIF Data
Steps
- Upload the photo you plan to share.
- Review the metadata removal action.
- Export a clean copy without location, camera, or timestamp EXIF fields.
- Share the cleaned image instead of the original file.
Example use case
Before posting a phone photo online, remove GPS coordinates so the shared file does not reveal where the image was taken.
Settings explained
- Format selection controls the downloaded image type after metadata is stripped.
- Batch mode is useful for cleaning multiple photos from the same event.
- Quality settings affect the exported copy when the browser re-encodes the image.
Limitations
- Metadata removal does not hide visible information inside the image itself.
- Some formats store metadata differently and browser support may vary.
- Re-exporting may change compression or color profile details.
Troubleshooting
- If a site still shows location, confirm you uploaded the cleaned copy rather than the original.
- If color changes slightly, export in a format that better suits the original image.
- If a HEIC file fails, convert it to JPG or PNG first and then remove metadata.
