Remove metadata and location from your photos

Photos carry hidden data: the exact place where they were taken (GPS), the phone or camera, the date… Remove it before sharing or posting them, without re-encoding: the photo looks exactly the same.

When should you remove it?

  • Posting photos on social media, forums or second-hand listings without revealing where you live.
  • Sending photos to strangers: sales, rentals, claims.
  • Sharing photos of your kids or your home without location data.

How it works

  1. 1GPS location, date and time, camera or phone model, software, author and the embedded thumbnail are removed.
  2. 2Only the orientation and the color profile are kept, so the photo looks the same.
  3. 3Nothing is re-encoded: the image stays identical, pixel for pixel. Your originals are never modified.

Frequently asked questions

Is any quality lost?
No. For JPEG, PNG and WebP the data is removed without touching the image. HEIC photos, in the browser, are saved as high-quality JPEGs without metadata; the desktop app cleans them without converting.
Don’t WhatsApp or social networks remove this data already?
Some do, but not always: WhatsApp usually removes it when you send a photo, but not when you send it as a document, and email and many websites keep it. Removing it yourself is the way to be sure.
Are my photos uploaded to the internet?
No. They are processed inside your browser; you can check it by disconnecting from the internet after the page has loaded.
Can I do it with many photos at once?
Yes: drop in several photos or a folder and download them all together in a .zip. For huge folders, the desktop app has no limits.
