See the camera, date and GPS location a photo gives away, then strip them and download a clean copy before you share it.
Runs in your browser. Your files are never uploaded.
Always kept: the picture itself, the color profile and the rotation, so nothing is re-compressed, recolored or turned sideways.
Metadata is only one sign. A file without it can still be made with AI, and some apps also hide an invisible watermark in the pixels, which this tool does not detect or remove.
About EXIF Data Viewer/Remover
Every photo from a phone or camera carries hidden details: where it was taken, the camera and its serial number, the date and time, the editing app and often your name. The EXIF Data Viewer/Remover shows all of it in plain groups, opens GPS coordinates on a map, and saves a copy without the metadata, so you can share a photo without sharing your address. Check and clean up to 50 photos or videos at once, without uploading them and without re-compressing them.

How to View and Remove EXIF Data
- Add your photos. Choose or drop up to 50 files, or paste a picture. JPG, PNG, WebP, iPhone HEIC, AVIF, MP4 and MOV all work.
- See what they reveal. Each card shows what the file carries, such as Location (GPS), Camera & device or Dates & times. Press Details for every field, or Map to see where a photo was taken.
- Pick what to remove. All metadata is the safe choice for sharing. Location only keeps the camera details. Choose lets you tick exactly what goes.
- Remove and download. Each clean file is read again and the result is shown, with fields that were removed crossed out. Download files one by one, or the whole batch as a ZIP.
What Your Photos Reveal
| Information | Examples | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Location (GPS) | Latitude, longitude, altitude, place names | Accurate to a few meters: it can point to your home, school or workplace. |
| Camera & device | Make, model, lens, serial numbers | Shows what gear you own and can link photos to the same camera. |
| Dates & times | When the photo was taken and edited, time zone | Reveals routines and when you were somewhere. |
| Software & edit history | Editing app, version, edit steps | Shows how a picture was processed. |
| Author & copyright | Your name, copyright notice, contact details | Useful on your own portfolio, unwanted on an anonymous post. |
| Captions, titles & comments | Descriptions, keywords, names of people tagged | Can name the people in the photo. |
| AI labels & Content Credentials | Records of AI generation or AI edits | Platforms use them to label posts as made with AI. |
| Camera settings | Shutter speed, aperture, ISO, focal length | Harmless on its own; photographers often keep it. |
When to Strip Metadata First
Most phones save GPS coordinates in every photo by default. Large social networks remove most of it from the copy other people see, but many ways of sharing keep the original file untouched: email, messaging apps that send files in original quality, AirDrop, cloud-shared folders, marketplaces and classified ads, forums and personal blogs. Clean a photo before you:
- Sell something online from home, where listing photos can give away your address.
- List a rental or a room, or send photos of your home to strangers.
- Share photos of children in group chats and school or club groups.
- Send a picture to a journalist or post it anonymously.
- Publish a portfolio without your camera serial numbers or editing history.
Want to remove only the records of AI edits and keep everything else? The AI Metadata Remover uses the same engine with AI labels only as the default.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I remove EXIF data from a photo?
Add the photo on this page and its metadata is listed straight away. Keep All metadata selected, press Remove metadata and download the cleaned copy. The picture, its colors and its rotation stay exactly as they were.
How do I see if a photo has GPS location data?
Add the photo and look at its card. A Location (GPS) tag means the file carries coordinates, and the Map button opens the spot on OpenStreetMap. Details lists the latitude, longitude, altitude and time of the fix.
Can I remove EXIF from many photos at once?
Yes. Add up to 50 photos or videos at a time. They are all cleaned in one run and each one is checked again afterwards. Download them one by one for free, or the whole batch as one ZIP with a membership.
Does removing EXIF reduce image quality?
No. Only the metadata is removed and the image data is copied unchanged, so nothing is re-compressed. The color profile and the rotation are kept, so photos do not change color or turn sideways.
Can I remove only the location and keep the camera details?
Yes. Choose Location only to remove GPS coordinates and place names and keep everything else, or Choose to tick exactly which kinds of information to remove: location, camera, dates, software, author, captions or AI labels.
Which file types are supported?
JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC and AVIF photos, and MP4 and MOV videos. iPhone HEIC photos and phone videos are cleaned in their own format, so there is no need to convert them first.
Does Facebook or Instagram already strip EXIF?
Large social networks remove most metadata from the copy other people see, but email, messaging apps that send original files, cloud-shared folders, marketplaces, blogs and direct transfers keep it. Strip it yourself before sending a photo that way.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Your files are read and cleaned inside your browser and never leave your device. The map opens only if you press the Map button.
