Remove EXIF & Image Metadata

Photos often hide GPS coordinates, device models, and timestamps. Strip that metadata by re-encoding through canvas — keep the pixels, drop the privacy leaks — entirely on your device.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metadata is removed?

Re-encoding through canvas strips EXIF and similar metadata blocks. Pixel content is preserved at your chosen quality.

Will the image look different?

At 90%+ quality, visual differences are negligible. Slight recompression can occur with lossy formats like JPG.

Is this the same as removing a watermark?

No. This tool removes hidden metadata, not visible watermarks or text burned into pixels.
