Remove Photo Location Data Before Sharing an Image
A photo can contain more than visible pixels. Before sharing an original image, inspect the metadata locally, decide whether it is appropriate to keep, then export a clean copy when it is not.
Useful for images taken on a phone or camera when location, camera or timestamp metadata should not accompany the shared file. The inspection and cleanup run entirely in the browser.
- 01
Inspect the original locally
Open the metadata viewer to see the available dimensions, format and privacy-relevant metadata without uploading the image.
- 02
Create a clean sharing copy
Use Remove EXIF to re-encode a new copy. Keep the original separately when you need its metadata for your own archive.
- 03
Confirm the output you will share
Inspect the clean copy again if the metadata matters. The workflow lets you choose the right file instead of assuming a platform will remove it for you.
Measure the file you chose, then decide.
The viewer reads the selected file in the browser and the cleanup creates a new local output. Your image content is not sent to a server during either step.
