Remove EXIF metadata from a photo
Your photos carry invisible metadata: the device model, the date, the settings and sometimes the exact GPS coordinates of where the shot was taken. View them, then erase them before you publish — without re-encoding or losing quality. GPS tags are the part people forget, and a photo posted with them gives away a home address. The photo is processed on your device, so an image you clean never leaves your machine.

This tool runs entirely in your browser — nothing is sent to a server.
Every photo taken with a smartphone or camera carries invisible EXIF metadata: the device model, the exact date and time, the shooting settings, and very often the GPS coordinates of where it was taken. Publishing a photo of your living room on a classifieds site then amounts to publishing your address.
This tool starts by showing you what your photo reveals, then erases that metadata. For JPEG files, the removal is done by directly stripping the concerned segments from the file, without re-encoding the image: the quality is strictly identical to the original, only the hidden data disappears.

What does running it locally bring you?
Files, figures and documents never leave your device: nothing is stored, nothing is sent.
Once the page is loaded, you can cut the network: the tool keeps working.
No upload, no account, no third-party server in between: results stay fast and fully private.
Frequently asked questions
What do EXIF data actually contain?
The make and model of the device, the date and time of the shot, the aperture, the shutter speed, the ISO sensitivity, the focal length, the orientation, sometimes the editing software used, the body’s serial number and above all the GPS coordinates to within a few metres.
Do social networks already remove this data?
Most strip it from the images they redisplay, but they receive it first and keep it on their side. And many other channels — classifieds sites, forums, e-mail attachments, file transfers — leave it completely intact.
Does the removal degrade the photo?
No for a JPEG: the metadata segments are removed from the file without touching the image data, so without any recompression. The cleaned photo is pixel for pixel identical to the original.
Is my photo sent to a server for analysis?
No, and that is essential for a tool of this type: reading the metadata as well as removing it happens entirely in your browser.
