Remove Image Metadata

Photos carry an EXIF block recording the camera, its settings, the date, and very often the exact GPS coordinates where the shot was taken. Posting a photo without stripping this can publish your home address by accident. This tool removes it and keeps the picture unchanged. It is free, needs no account, and adds no watermark to your result.

Selling something online and posting photos taken at home

Publishing pictures of children or family without embedding where they were taken

Sharing work photos that would otherwise reveal a client site or an unreleased location

How it works

What happens to your file.

The pixels are decoded and re-encoded into a clean file, so EXIF, GPS and vendor maker-note blocks are simply not carried across. You choose PNG, JPEG or WebP output, and the image dimensions and visible content are preserved.

Where it stops: This removes data stored inside the file. It cannot remove information visible in the picture itself, such as a street sign or a house number.

Questions

Common questions.

Does removing EXIF reduce image quality?

Re-encoding a JPEG is lossy by nature, so choose PNG or WebP if you want a pixel-exact result. For most sharing, the difference is not visible.

Do social networks already strip this for me?

Most large platforms strip EXIF on upload, but many messaging apps, forums, marketplaces and email attachments do not. If you are not certain, strip it yourself before sending.

How can I see what my photo is revealing?

Use the Image Metadata Viewer first. It shows the camera, timestamps and GPS coordinates if present, so you can see exactly what would have been shared.
