EXIF Data Viewer/Remover
Photos from phones and cameras often carry hidden EXIF metadata — camera model, settings, timestamp, and sometimes the exact GPS location where it was taken. Upload a photo to see everything embedded in it, or strip it all out before sharing the image publicly. Everything happens locally in your browser.
Frequently asked questions
Why does EXIF data matter for privacy?
GPS coordinates embedded in a photo can reveal exactly where it was taken — your home, workplace, or a private location — even if you didn't mention it anywhere. Many people strip this before posting photos online.
Why do some images show no metadata?
PNG, WebP, and screenshots typically don't carry EXIF data at all, and many platforms (messaging apps, social media) strip it automatically on upload or export. EXIF is most commonly found in JPEG photos straight off a camera or phone.
How does 'Remove all metadata' work?
It redraws the image onto an HTML canvas and re-exports it — canvas output never includes the original file's metadata, so the result is a clean copy with identical visual content but no EXIF data.
