EXIF & camera infoCamera model, lens, capture settings and common EXIF fields are not copied.
Image Tools
Remove metadata from images.
Create clean copies without uploading source images. Choose one output format and quality for the batch, remove EXIF, GPS and common software tags locally, then download the cleaned files or a ZIP.
Clean pixel copy
Strip metadata without uploading the source image.
The browser decodes visible pixels and encodes a new JPG, PNG or WebP. EXIF, GPS and common software metadata are not copied into the generated file.
Private by design
Source images are decoded and processed locally in your browser. No image-processing API upload is required for this tool.
- Process one image or up to 50 in a batch.
- Use Same as source, JPG, PNG or WebP output.
- One cleanup setup applies to the whole batch for a faster, simpler workflow.
- Visible pixel content is preserved; metadata visibly printed into an image cannot be removed as metadata.
How to use it
How to remove EXIF, GPS and software metadata from images.
The browser decodes the visible pixels and creates a new image without copying source metadata fields into the output.
Add supported images
Choose JPG, PNG or WebP files. The tool reads the visible image for re-encoding rather than editing metadata fields in place.
Choose the clean output format
Keep the source image family or create JPG, WebP or PNG output. Quality applies to lossy JPEG and WebP output.
Create a clean pixel copy
Processing draws the decoded pixels into a new browser canvas and encodes a new file without intentionally copying EXIF, GPS or software tags.
Download and verify when metadata matters
Download the clean copy or ZIP. For sensitive workflows, inspect the final file with a trusted metadata viewer before sharing.
When to use it
Remove common camera and location metadata before sharing image copies.
This workflow targets file metadata. It cannot remove information that is visibly printed, photographed or otherwise embedded in the image pixels.
Simple batch cleanup
Choose one output setup, clean every selected file, then download the new copies. There is no image-editing or per-image preview step.
- Create sharing copies without common EXIF camera fields.
- Strip embedded GPS metadata from supported image outputs.
- Remove software/editor tags that are not copied during browser re-encoding.
- Choose a new output format while creating the metadata-clean copy.
FAQ
Remove Image Metadata FAQ
Practical answers about remove image metadata, local processing, batch behavior and output limitations.
Does this remove GPS metadata?
The tool creates a new encoded image from visible pixels and does not copy source EXIF, GPS or software metadata fields into that output.
Does it remove text or location information visible in the picture?
No. Information that is visibly embedded in the pixels—such as a photographed sign, timestamp overlay or printed address—remains part of the image.
Does Same as source preserve the original metadata?
No. Same as source refers to the output image format family. The image is still decoded and re-encoded as a new file rather than returning the original bytes.
Should I verify the result before sharing sensitive files?
Yes. When metadata removal is security- or privacy-critical, independently inspect the downloaded result with a metadata viewer before distribution.
