How to use Remove EXIF Data from Image
- Add your photos.
- Wait while they are re-saved without metadata.
- Download the clean images.
Common uses
- Removing GPS location before posting photos.
- Stripping camera details.
- Sharing images more privately.
About this tool
Remove hidden metadata from images by drawing them onto a fresh canvas and saving again. Photos can carry GPS coordinates, device models and timestamps in EXIF data. The pixels are kept; the metadata is not.
Worked example
A phone photo can carry the date, camera model and GPS location. Removing metadata re-saves the picture without that information, so a photo shared online does not reveal where it was taken.
Common problems and fixes
- The file looks different.
- The image is re-encoded, so tiny quality changes are possible. The picture content is the same.
- The orientation is wrong.
- Some viewers rely on a rotation flag in the metadata. The tool applies the rotation before removing it.
- Social apps already strip location.
- Many do, but not all. Remove it yourself before sharing by email or message.

Frequently asked questions
What gets removed?
All embedded metadata: location, camera model, date and orientation tags.
Will quality change?
Photos are re-encoded at high quality, so a very small change can occur.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs inside your browser on your own device, so your files and text are never sent anywhere.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how often you use it.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. It works in any modern browser on phones, tablets and computers. Very large files may be slow on older phones.
Does it work offline?
