Why remove EXIF data?
EXIF data is convenient for photographers but risky for everyone else. A single JPG can quietly carry the GPS location of your home, the serial number of your camera, and the exact moment a photo was taken. Stripping that metadata before you share an image online keeps that information private.
This tool removes EXIF by re-encoding the photo's pixels into a brand-new file. Because a freshly encoded image starts with no metadata block, the result has no EXIF, no GPS, no XMP, and no maker notes — while looking pixel-for-pixel like the original.
How to remove EXIF data
- Open your photo. Drag it onto the tool, choose a file, or paste it.
- Go to the Remove tab. The page opens there. Pick an output format — JPG, PNG, or WebP.
- Download the clean copy. Click Download clean copy to save a metadata-free version to your device.
Verify it worked
After downloading, drop the clean copy back into the tool and open the Metadata tab — you should see "No metadata found". That confirms the EXIF, GPS, and other hidden data are gone.

Preguntas frecuentes
Does removing EXIF delete the GPS location too?
Yes. Re-encoding discards the entire metadata block, including GPS coordinates, camera info, timestamps, and editing history.
Will the image look different?
No. The pixels are unchanged. If you save as PNG it's lossless; JPG/WebP re-encode once, so keep the quality high (around 90) and it looks identical.
Which formats can I save?
JPG, PNG, or WebP. Formats the browser can't re-encode (HEIC/TIFF/AVIF) are saved as a clean PNG.
Where is my image processed?
The metadata is read and removed in your browser, so the clean copy is created on your own device. How any data associated with the tool is handled is described in our privacy policy.
