Private by design: images are processed entirely in your browser, never uploaded. Re-saving through a canvas drops EXIF, GPS location, camera details and other hidden metadata. The cleaned image keeps the picture but loses the embedded data.
Metadata and EXIF Remover is a free privacy tool that strips hidden metadata from photos entirely in your browser, with nothing uploaded. Re-saving each image removes embedded EXIF data including GPS location, camera make and model and timestamps, along with IPTC and XMP blocks, while keeping the picture itself. It shows what was detected and supports batch processing of up to 50 images.

Frequently asked questions

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. Images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded, which is the whole point: your private photos and their location data stay on your device.

What metadata gets removed?

Re-saving the image strips embedded EXIF data, including GPS location, the camera make and model, timestamps, and other hidden tags, as well as IPTC and XMP blocks. The picture itself is kept.

Why does removing metadata matter for privacy?

Photos from phones and cameras often embed the exact GPS coordinates and time a picture was taken. Sharing them can reveal where you live, work or were at a given moment, so stripping that before posting protects you.

Will the image quality change?

Dimensions and appearance are preserved. JPEG output is re-encoded at high quality, and you can choose PNG for a lossless result. Orientation is applied so the photo stays upright.

Can I clean several at once?

Yes, up to 50 images. Each shows what metadata was detected, and you can download them individually or all together as a ZIP.
