Protect your privacy by removing hidden metadata — GPS coordinates, device model, dates, editing history — from photos before posting or sending them.

How to use
- Drop one or more photos.
- Click Remove metadata.
- Download the clean copies.
How it works
The tool redraws each image's pixels onto a canvas and saves a brand-new file. Only the image itself is written: EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, maker notes and embedded thumbnails are left behind. The browser applies the photo's orientation first, so clean copies still display the right way up.
JPEGs are re-encoded at quality 95, which is visually lossless.
Examples
- Selling online
- Remove GPS data from photos of an item you're selling so buyers can't see your home location.
Common uses
- Selling items on marketplaces
- Sharing photos of your home or children
- Sending images to people you don't know

Is the image quality affected?
Only by a high-quality re-encode (95%), which is not visible.
How can I check the result?
Drop the clean file into the Image Metadata Viewer: it should report no metadata.
