Privacy: Viewing and stripping run entirely in your browser. Photos are not uploaded to our servers.

How strip works: JPEG uses piexifjs (binary EXIF remove / GPS-only). PNG and WebP clear metadata by canvas re-encode — pixels are rewritten; that is labeled in results.

Free EXIF Remover Online — Strip Photo Metadata & GPS, No Upload

Phone photos often hide EXIF data: camera make/model, capture time, and sometimes GPS coordinates. Before you share on Discord, Telegram, email, or a marketplace listing, use this free EXIF remover to view that metadata and strip it — entirely in your browser.

Need smaller files after cleaning? Use the private image compressor (optional EXIF strip there too). Compare upload vs browser tools in our TinyPNG alternative guide. Preparing product shots?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How do I remove EXIF metadata from a photo online for free?

A: Drop JPG/PNG/WebP files here, review the metadata table, click Strip all metadata (or Strip GPS only), then download or ZIP. Everything runs in your browser.

Q: What is EXIF data and why remove it?

A: EXIF is embedded photo metadata — camera model, timestamps, and often GPS. Removing it before sharing helps protect privacy and location.

Q: Does this EXIF remover upload my photos?

A: No. Viewing and stripping stay on your device (piexifjs for JPEG; canvas re-encode for PNG/WebP).

Q: Can I strip GPS only and keep other EXIF?

A: Yes for JPEG — Strip GPS only removes location while keeping other tags when present. PNG/WebP strip re-encodes via canvas and clears metadata that way.

Q: Does stripping EXIF reduce image quality?

A: JPEG strip uses a binary EXIF path and does not re-encode pixels. PNG/WebP strip re-encodes via canvas — we label that in the results.

Q: Can I remove EXIF from multiple photos at once?

A: Yes — batch up to 20 files and download a ZIP.

Q: How do I verify GPS and metadata are gone?

A: Download the cleaned file and drop it back into this viewer — GPS/EXIF should be gone after strip-all. You can also check with another EXIF viewer.

Q: Is the EXIF remover free?

A: Yes — free with no registration.
