{ } How it works
Remove Image Metadata works on the file you upload. Select Process ▸ and it runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to a server — then shows the result in the Output panel.
Input
- Image — upload a file (image/png,image/jpeg,image/webp,.png,.jpg,.jpeg,.webp); it is read locally in your browser
Output
A downloadable JPG file — use the Download button in the Output panel.
{ } Common uses
- Remove the location and camera details from a photograph before publishing it.
- Strip the software and author fields from an image you are passing on.
- Clean a picture of the metadata a phone attaches automatically.
{ } Limitations
- The metadata goes because the image is decoded and drawn into a fresh canvas, which carries nothing across. That is thorough — EXIF, GPS and the rest all go — but it also means the pixels are re-encoded, so a JPG or WebP loses a little quality on the way. A PNG stays lossless.
- The format is kept: PNG stays PNG, WebP stays WebP, and anything else is written as JPG.
- Only the pixels survive, so anything you wanted to keep goes too — a copyright field, a colour profile.
{ } FAQ
Is my data uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs locally in your browser — your files never leave your device.
Can I process more than one file at once?
Yes — add several files and they’re all processed and downloaded together as a ZIP.
Is this tool free?
Yes — it’s completely free and needs no sign-up.
How do I know it worked?
Run the result through Image Info & EXIF Viewer: it will report the format and dimensions and no EXIF fields. Bear in mind that it does not list GPS either way, so it confirms the absence of the fields it reads rather than proving the file is empty of everything.
