What is EXIF metadata?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is hidden data embedded in photos by cameras and phones. It can include GPS coordinates, camera model, lens info, timestamps, and software used to edit the image.

Why should I remove EXIF data?

Photos shared online can reveal your exact location via GPS coordinates, your device model, and when the photo was taken. Stripping EXIF data protects your privacy before sharing.

Does this tool upload my photos?

No. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your images are never sent to any server.

What formats are supported?

JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF, and HEIC. The tool reads metadata from all formats and produces a clean JPEG or PNG output.
