Detects an EXIF marker in the original file, then redraws the image onto a canvas — a process that does not carry metadata over — before exporting.

How it works

Frequently asked questions

What is EXIF metadata?

EXIF metadata is hidden information embedded in a photo file by your camera or phone, which can include the device model, date taken, and sometimes GPS location.

Why would I want to remove it?

If a photo contains GPS coordinates, sharing it publicly can reveal where it was taken. Removing metadata is a common step before posting photos online.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?

No. The photo is redrawn onto a canvas locally in your browser, which does not carry metadata over, and a clean copy is generated for you to download.
