HOW TO USE

How to use Photo Metadata Cleaner

Remove EXIF, GPS location, camera model and capture-time metadata by re-exporting images.

What this tool does

Phone and camera photos may include time, device settings and precise GPS coordinates. Removing unneeded metadata is one step toward safer sharing.

The image is re-exported without those attached fields. Visible information inside the photograph is not removed.

Useful for

  • Remove location before social posting
  • Share without camera and time details
  • Clean metadata from several photos

Three simple steps

  1. 01

    Choose one or more photos

  2. 02

    Review what will be removed

  3. 03

    Download the cleaned image or ZIP

Tips for better results

Save information you still need

Record capture dates elsewhere before removing them if they matter to your archive.

Inspect the visible image too

Addresses, name tags and number plates are pixels, not metadata.

Frequently asked questions

Does it remove all personal information?

It removes attached metadata, not information visible in the picture itself.

Can quality change?

A small change is possible because the image is re-encoded.
