About remove image metadata
Photos and exported graphics can contain EXIF camera details, capture times, GPS coordinates, author fields, comments or XMP editing information. That data is often invisible in the picture but can travel with the file when it is uploaded or shared.
The remover decodes the image and creates a fresh copy containing pixels plus the technical color information needed for correct display. It reports the metadata groups found and omits them from the result. The original file is never modified.
When should I use it?
- Clean a phone photo before posting it publicly or sending it to a stranger.
- Remove author and editing fields from an image prepared for a client.
- Create a neutral copy before adding an image to a listing, forum or document.

Frequently asked questions
Which image formats are supported?
You can clean HEIC or HEIF phone photos as well as JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF images.
Which metadata is removed?
The rebuilt copy omits EXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, comments, embedded thumbnails and similar descriptive fields.
Does this blur faces or visible text?
No. Metadata removal only affects hidden file fields; it does not redact anything visible in the pixels.
