What counts as image metadata?
Metadata is everything stored in an image besides the pixels themselves. That includes the EXIF block (camera and exposure data), GPS coordinates, XMP packets (often written by editing apps), IPTC fields (captions, keywords, copyright), and proprietary maker notes. Some of it is harmless; some of it can identify you.
This tool removes all of it at once. By drawing the image onto a fresh canvas and re-encoding, it produces a file that contains only the picture — no embedded data of any kind. It's the simplest way to make a photo safe to share.
How to remove all metadata
- Open your image. Drag it onto the tool, choose a file, or paste it.
- Choose a format. On the Remove tab, pick JPG, PNG, or WebP for the clean output.
- Download. Save the metadata-free copy. The Metadata tab will confirm nothing is left.
Metadata vs the visible image
Removing metadata never crops, resizes, or recolours your photo — it only deletes the hidden fields. If you also want to shrink the file or change its size, run it through our compress or resize tools afterwards.

Questions fréquentes
What metadata does this remove?
All of it: EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, ICC notes, and camera maker notes. The output file carries only the pixels.
Is removing metadata reversible?
No — once you download the clean copy, the metadata is gone from that file. Keep your original if you need the data later.
Does it work on screenshots and downloaded images?
Yes. Any JPG, PNG, or WebP works, whether it came from a camera, a screenshot, or a download.
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.
