See what your photos say about you
View the camera, date and GPS location hidden in a photo, then download a clean copy — the image itself is not re-compressed.
About this tool
Metadata removed, pixels untouched
Most “EXIF removers” re-save the photo, which strips the metadata but also re-compresses the image and costs quality. This one edits the file instead: it finds the EXIF, XMP, IPTC and text blocks inside the JPEG, PNG or WebP container and cuts them out, copying the compressed image data across byte for byte. Orientation and the colour profile are kept by default so the photo looks exactly the same, and every cleaned file is read back to prove nothing was left behind.

GPS shown, then gone
If a photo records where it was taken, you see the coordinates and a map link — then the clean copy has none.
No re-compression
Only the metadata blocks are removed. The image data is copied as-is, so the clean file is pixel-for-pixel identical.
Verified clean
Each cleaned file is parsed again before you see the result, so “clean” is checked, not assumed. Batch files download as one ZIP.

Tips for the best results
- Check photos before posting themPhones record GPS by default. A photo of your home, posted with its EXIF, gives away the address.
- Keep the orientation tagMany phones store a portrait photo sideways plus a flag that rotates it. Removing the flag makes it display sideways.
- Keep the colour profileWide-gamut photos from recent phones look washed out without their ICC profile. It contains nothing personal.
- Social networks strip it — sites do notInstagram and Facebook remove EXIF on upload. Your own website, a CMS or an email attachment usually does not.

Questions
Questions about this tool
Everything here runs in your browser — nothing you add is uploaded. More in the general FAQ.
How do I remove location data from a photo?
Drop the photo here and press Download clean copy. The GPS coordinates, along with the rest of the EXIF data, are removed and the result is checked again to confirm no location remains. On an iPhone you can also turn off location for the camera in Settings, Privacy, Location Services, Camera.
Does removing EXIF reduce image quality?
Not here. The metadata blocks are cut out of the file and the compressed image data is copied unchanged, so the clean photo is pixel-for-pixel the same. Tools that strip EXIF by re-saving the image do lose a little quality.
What is EXIF data?
Information a camera or phone writes into a photo: the make and model, lens, exposure settings, the date and time, sometimes the owner's name or the camera serial number, and often the GPS position where it was taken.
Which formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG and WebP are cleaned losslessly. HEIC, AVIF and TIFF files can be viewed where the browser can read them; to clean those, convert them with the image compressor on this site, which drops all metadata as a side effect of re-encoding.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The file is read and edited in your browser, and the clean copy is created on your device. Nothing is sent anywhere.
