EXIF Remover

Remove EXIF metadata such as GPS location, camera model, and capture date from a photo by re-encoding its pixels into a clean JPG, PNG, or WebP.

About EXIF Remover

An EXIF remover deletes the hidden metadata a camera or phone stores inside a photo, including GPS coordinates, device model, and capture time. This tool draws only the pixels onto a canvas and encodes a new file, so no EXIF, IPTC, or XMP blocks are carried over. The photo never leaves your browser. JPG and WebP output is re-compressed, which costs a little quality.

Also known as: Photo Metadata Remover, Remove Metadata from Image, Remove Photo Location.

How to use EXIF Remover

  1. Choose an image, or drag it onto the upload area. The file is read by your browser and is not uploaded.
  2. Set "Output format" and "JPG/WebP quality". The preview updates as you change them.
  3. Check the preview, then press "Download result" to save the file.

Questions about EXIF Remover

Does removing EXIF data change how the photo looks?

The picture content stays the same, but JPG and WebP output is re-compressed at the quality you choose, 0.92 by default. Pick PNG output if you want the decoded pixels stored without further loss, at the cost of a larger file.

Is every kind of metadata removed, or only the GPS location?

Everything is removed. The new file is built from pixels alone, so GPS position, camera and lens details, timestamps, embedded thumbnails, and editing software tags are all absent from the download.
