What can EXIF Remover help you do?
Free EXIF remover. Strip GPS, camera model, capture date, and other metadata from photos in your browser.
Best for
Use this to create a re-encoded photo copy without deliberately copying source EXIF before sharing. Browser-readable images are redrawn as JPEG. This is not a metadata inspector and does not list or individually edit GPS, camera, or capture-time fields.
How to use it
Select a working JPG, PNG, or WebP image, wait for the JPEG preview, and download it. Adjusting the quality slider, ranging from 0.5 to 1, regenerates the output. If reading or export fails, try a format your browser can decode.
How to read the result
Output keeps the decoded image dimensions, fills transparent areas white, and downloads under the original filename stem with a .jpg extension. Quality is an encoding parameter, not a percentage of detail retained. Re-encoding can increase file size or introduce visible compression differences.
Privacy and limits
A local object URL loads the photo and Canvas re-encodes it; this workflow has no image-upload or external processing API. Source EXIF is not explicitly copied, but output metadata is not inspected field by field. The result is not a guarantee of complete anonymity.
Re-encoding does not hide faces, addresses, document text, reflections, or sensitive filenames. Inspect both visible content and output metadata separately before sharing sensitive photos. JPEG also cannot preserve transparency or animation, so retain the source when those properties matter.
