Remove EXIF - Strip GPS and Photo Data Free

Upload your photo and the tool strips location, camera, and timestamp metadata, then gives you a clean copy.

Photos can carry your exact location. Stripping metadata before sharing protects your privacy.

Yes, free forever with no signup and no watermarks.

No. Only the hidden metadata is removed; the visible image stays exactly the same.

No. Metadata is stripped in your browser, so your photos never leave your device.

Phone photos often carry GPS coordinates, the camera model and the shooting time. Strip that EXIF data before posting pictures on marketplaces, forums or social networks, so strangers cannot read where a photo was taken. The cleaning happens in your browser, and you download the clean copy afterwards.

Besides classic EXIF fields, the tool also removes other embedded data such as XMP information from your photos. That includes GPS location, camera model, timestamps and software tags left behind by editing apps. The visible picture stays exactly the same, because only the hidden data layer is removed.

You are most likely still viewing the original file rather than the cleaned copy you downloaded. Open the new file and check it again, and remember that some viewers show general file information that is not EXIF at all. Compare the file names and timestamps of the two versions to be sure.

JPEG photos are re-encoded at 95 percent quality, which stays visually identical, while PNG files are saved losslessly. File size can therefore shift slightly even though every visible detail is preserved. A tiny difference is normal and is not a sign that your photo was damaged in any way.

Build a simple habit: keep the originals privately on your device and only ever share the cleaned copies publicly. Since cleaning runs locally in your browser, nothing is uploaded while you work. Files up to 100 MB are supported, so even high-resolution camera photos fit into the same workflow.
