Image Metadata Remover

Strip all EXIF metadata from images before sharing — GPS location, camera make and model, timestamps, software used, and more. Works by re-exporting through the browser canvas, which never preserves metadata. Your photo never leaves your device.

Strip GPS location, camera model, and timestamps before sharing photos online

How it works

  • Drop a JPEG, PNG, WebP, or AVIF image with embedded metadata (EXIF, GPS, camera data)
  • The tool re-encodes the image without any metadata embedded in the output file
  • Download the stripped image — same pixels, no location or device information

Frequently asked questions

What metadata is removed?

All EXIF data including GPS coordinates, camera make and model, lens info, date/time, software, and copyright strings. ICC colour profiles are retained so colours look the same.

Does removing metadata change the file size?

Slightly. EXIF data is typically 5–50 kB, so the output is a little smaller. The pixel content and quality are unchanged.

Why should I remove metadata before sharing photos online?

Photos taken on a phone embed GPS coordinates that reveal exactly where the photo was taken. Other EXIF fields reveal what device you used and when. Stripping before sharing protects your privacy and location.

Privacy note: GPS coordinates embedded in phone photos can reveal your exact home address when shared online. Always strip metadata before posting personal photos to social media or selling products online.

Why it's different

EXIF metadata stripped via browser canvas re-export — no upload, no server. GPS, timestamps, and camera info removed locally. Your images stay private.

True Alpha Channel

We export straight (non-premultiplied) alpha so transparent PNGs open with a real checkerboard in Photoshop and Figma — no black halos.
