Remove EXIF data and GPS location from photos
Updated
A photo can contain more than visible pixels. EXIF metadata may include capture time, camera and lens information, orientation and GPS coordinates. Creating a separate export without supported embedded metadata can reduce what you share with the picture.

How to remove EXIF data locally
- Open the image metadata cleaner.
- Add static JPG, PNG or WebP files: up to 20 images per batch and 25 MB per image.
- Review the recognized metadata categories shown for your selection.
- Choose the output format and dimensions. Adjust the quality setting for JPEG or WebP if needed.
- Select Clean images, compare the preview and download the individual images or ZIP batch.
The tool creates a new image in your browser and checks the exported file for supported metadata blocks before offering it for download. This check is format-specific, not a complete forensic analysis. Your originals remain unchanged.
EXIF, GPS, XMP and IPTC: what is the difference?
- EXIF: technical and capture details such as the camera model, date and orientation.
- GPS: coordinates that may be stored within image metadata; not every photo contains them.
- XMP and IPTC: descriptive or editing information, such as captions, creator details and keywords, where present.
- C2PA: provenance information about creation or editing. It is not a camera setting and does not necessarily mean an image was AI-generated.
This cleaner targets recognized embedded blocks in supported exports. It does not remove a street sign, face or other identifying detail visible in the picture.
Will removing metadata affect image quality?
The current image workflow decodes and re-encodes the file. Keeping original dimensions avoids resizing but does not guarantee identical pixels or compression. JPEG and WebP quality settings can affect appearance and file size; color handling can also differ after removing embedded profiles. Compare the export with your original before sharing or archiving it.
How to check location privacy before sharing
- Inspect the downloaded copy, not the original, with a metadata viewer if location privacy is important.
- Check the filename for names, dates, addresses or other personal details.
- Look for identifiable places or people in the visible image.
- Review any location or audience settings on the service where you share the file.
Frequently asked questions
Does every image contain EXIF or GPS?
No. Export settings and previous editing can remove or omit these fields. An empty recognized-metadata result is not proof that the image has no other identifying information.
Can I clean PDF or video metadata the same way?
Use the appropriate cleaner, because those formats store different properties. The PDF workflow targets standard document fields; the video workflow targets supported container metadata and chapters.
Can I restore removed EXIF data later?
The cleaner does not provide a metadata-restoration service. Keep your original separately if you may need capture details or provenance later.
