Quick Tool Overview

The EXIF Remover decodes an image to raw pixels and re-encodes it, so no metadata block survives — no GPS, no camera, no date, no software trail. A before-and-after summary shows exactly what was in there, and orientation can be kept by applying the rotation to the pixels instead of the tag.

About the EXIF Remover

Posting a photograph with its EXIF intact publishes the camera that took it, the moment it was taken, and very often the coordinates. For a picture taken at home, that is your address.

Stripping it is simple: the image is decoded and re-encoded from raw pixels, so no metadata block survives into the new file. The picture is identical and everything the file said about itself is gone. Several images can be done at once and taken as a ZIP. A before-and-after summary shows exactly which tags were present, so you can see what you were about to share.

Key features of the EXIF Remover

Removes everything

EXIF, IPTC, XMP and maker notes all go, because the file is rebuilt from pixels rather than edited.

Shows what was there first

GPS, camera, date and software are flagged before removal, so you can see what you were about to share.

Keeps the orientation

Optionally applies the rotation to the pixels, so a stripped photo does not end up sideways in some viewers.

Batch and ZIP

Clean a whole folder at once and take the results as a single archive.

Lossless option

Output as PNG or lossless WebP to keep the pixels bit-identical while the metadata goes.
