Photo Metadata Stripper

Photos from your phone silently carry GPS coordinates, the device model and the timestamp as EXIF data. Post them to social media as-is and strangers can pinpoint your home or daily routine.

This page never uploads your file. Everything is analyzed and stripped inside your browser.

We never send your file anywhere. Everything happens inside your browser.

How it works

  1. The image is loaded into browser memory (never uploaded).
  2. exifr parses the EXIF block to extract GPS, timestamps and device fields.
  3. The image is redrawn through Canvas and re-encoded as JPEG (PNG stays PNG). EXIF does not survive the round-trip.
  4. The cleaned file is saved locally. The original on disk is not modified.

Note: some social platforms strip EXIF on upload, but chat apps (Discord, Slack) and email attachments preserve it.
