Strip your home location, the date and your phone model before a photo leaves you. JPGs stay pixel-identical. Batches welcome.
🔒 This file never leaves your device — nothing is sent to a server
A phone photo usually carries the capture location (latitude and longitude), the date and time, the phone model and the editing app as EXIF metadata. Large social networks strip it on upload, but forum attachments, marketplace listings, e-mail and cloud links often pass the original through untouched.
A JPG stores metadata in separate segments ahead of the image data. This tool removes those segments (APP1–APP15 and comments) and never touches the image bytes, so there is no re-compression and no quality loss. PNG and WebP use different containers and are redrawn through a canvas and saved as PNG (lossless, transparency kept). HEIC, BMP and TIFF are redrawn and saved as JPG at quality 92, so a slight quality change is possible.
Portrait photos are displayed rotated via the EXIF orientation value. If you strip that too, some viewers show the photo sideways. By default the tool keeps only that single value and removes everything else. Location, date and device are always removed.
Drop a file and the tool first lists what it found, including coordinates if there is a location. That view is rendered locally as well.
No. Reading, stripping and saving all happen in your browser. You can go offline after the page loads.
Usually not. It mostly comes from the camera app. Drop one in and you will see immediately.
Most messengers strip EXIF and recompress on send, unless you choose an 'original quality' option.
