EXIF Metadata Remover

Scrub hidden GPS location data, camera information, and timestamps from your photos locally before posting online.

Metadata & EXIF Remover

Remove GPS location, camera details, and EXIF metadata from your images.

Prominent “Keep Original” ReminderRe-encoding is destructive to the original container metadata and camera-specific RAW headers. Always keep a backup of your original file if you require intact original EXIF data or container structure.
EXIF Metadata vs. Visual Camera WatermarksMetadata Removers strip hidden digital headers (GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, and EXIF tags). If your camera app burned a timestamp or camera spec text (such as focal length/aperture) directly into the image pixels when taking the photo, that text is part of the image pixel grid itself and cannot be removed via EXIF header stripping.
