Drop your image
Upload a JPEG, PNG, or WebP file. The tool immediately reads and displays all embedded metadata groups.
Review all metadata
See GPS coordinates, camera settings, timestamps, author info, and software — everything your image carries.
Remove selected groups
Toggle off the metadata groups you want gone, then download the cleaned image. Keep what you need, discard what you don't.
The invisible layer inside every photo
Every time you take a photo, your device embeds hidden data into the file — the GPS location, camera make and model, lens settings, timestamps, and sometimes your name or copyright notice. This data is called EXIF metadata.
Most image viewers display only the visible pixels. The metadata layer is invisible unless you use a dedicated viewer. Understanding what metadata is in your images helps you make informed decisions about what you share publicly.
What each group contains.
GPS & Location
Latitude, longitude, altitude, direction, and speed at the time of capture. This is the most sensitive metadata group — it can pinpoint exactly where a photo was taken.
Camera & Device
Make and model of the camera or phone, lens model, serial number, and unique device identifiers. This data can identify which device was used to take the photo.
Capture Settings
Shutter speed, aperture (f-number), ISO sensitivity, focal length, flash mode, and white balance. Useful for photographers reviewing technical settings.
Timestamps
Date and time the photo was taken, date it was edited, and the time zone. Can reveal your schedule and whereabouts over time.
Author & Copyright
Photographer name, artist, author, copyright notice, and usage rights. Important for intellectual property but potentially a privacy concern when sharing anonymously.
Software
The editing software used to process the image — Lightroom, Photoshop, iPhone Camera, and similar tools.
Why selective removal matters
Many metadata strippers remove everything — appropriate when privacy is the only concern. But photographers, agencies, and stock contributors often need to retain some metadata while removing others:
