EXIF and metadata remover
Drop photos before you share them. JPEG, PNG, and WebP are cleaned without re-encoding the pixels when possible. Other formats are re-encoded to PNG so hidden data is not carried over.
No upload. Files never leave your device.
Drop photos here
JPEG, PNG, and WebP can be stripped in place. TIFF, AVIF, and similar files are decoded and saved as PNG. Multiple files are fine.

Frequently asked questions
Does this upload my photos?
No. Cleaning runs in a Web Worker on your device. Nothing is sent to a server.
What is removed?
On JPEG, PNG, and WebP, the tool drops EXIF (including GPS), XMP, IPTC, and comment fields. Color profiles (ICC) are kept so colors stay closer to the original. Other metadata-bearing formats are re-encoded to PNG, which does not carry EXIF.
Is the picture re-compressed?
Not for JPEG, PNG, or WebP when a lossless strip succeeds — the pixels stay as they were. If a file has to be re-encoded, it is saved as PNG and the result will mention that.
How can I tell it worked?
Each result line lists what was removed, or says that no EXIF, IPTC, XMP, or comment fields were found. You can also inspect the download with any EXIF viewer.
Can I clean many files at once?
Yes. Add a batch, run the cleaner, then download a ZIP.
Is there a file size limit?
Files larger than 40 MB are refused.
