Metadata Remover
Strip EXIF, GPS, XMP & hidden data from JPG, PNG & WebP — free, no signup
What is image metadata?
Every photo you take stores hidden data beyond the pixels you can see. This invisible information can include your camera’s make and model, the exact date and time the shot was taken, and the software used to edit it.
Many photos also carry a GPS location tag that pinpoints exactly where the picture was captured. Sharing such images online can unintentionally reveal your home address, workplace, or travel plans to strangers.
Removing metadata before you post, upload, or send photos is a simple way to protect your privacy. This tool strips it all away in seconds — without changing your image in any way.
Privacy
This tool runs entirely on your own device. 100% of the processing happens in your browser — your photos are never uploaded to a server, never stored anywhere, and never seen by anyone else. Nothing ever leaves your computer or phone.
Frequently asked questions
What metadata does this tool remove?
It strips EXIF data (camera make and model, date taken, settings), GPS location coordinates, XMP metadata, IPTC / Photoshop blocks, and PNG text chunks from your images.
Will removing metadata reduce my image quality?
No. Metadata lives outside the actual image data. The tool removes only the hidden data blocks — your photo’s pixels stay exactly the same, with zero quality loss.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your image never leaves your device, is never sent to any server, and is never stored.
Which image formats are supported?
JPG (JPEG), PNG, and WebP images are supported.
