Remove EXIF Data from Photos

Remove EXIF data from photos before you share them. Phones save the exact place a photo was taken, plus the date and device, inside the file. Check what your photos reveal, then strip it.

    Photos can carry hidden details: the exact GPS location, the date and time, and the phone or camera used. Add photos to see what is inside, then remove it.

    JPG, PNG and WebP are cleaned without re-compressing, so quality is untouched. Other formats are re-saved.

    How to use it

    1. Drop your photos — the tool shows what is hidden inside each one.
    2. Choose whether to keep the colour profile.
    3. Click Remove metadata and download the clean copies.

    Questions

    Are my files uploaded to your servers?

    No. The tool runs entirely inside your browser — your files are processed on your own device and never sent to In-Right or anyone else. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.

    How do I check if a photo has location data?

    Drop it here. Before anything is removed, the tool lists what is hidden inside each photo, including GPS coordinates if there are any.

    What is EXIF metadata?

    EXIF is a standard (CIPA DC-008, "Exif 2.32") for the details cameras and phones store inside a photo: the device, lens and settings, the date and time, and often the GPS position. XMP and IPTC are similar blocks added by editing apps and news agencies.

    Will my photo lose quality?

    No, for JPG, PNG and WebP. The tool removes the metadata blocks and leaves the compressed image data untouched, byte for byte. HEIC, AVIF, GIF and other formats are re-saved instead (HEIC becomes JPG).

    Why does my photo still appear the right way up?

    Many phones store photos sideways plus a note saying which way is up. The tool keeps only that single orientation note, which contains nothing personal, so your photo does not suddenly turn sideways.

    Don't social networks remove this anyway?

    Many large platforms strip location data from public posts, but photos sent as files, by email, in cloud-drive links or through some messaging apps usually keep everything. Cleaning them yourself means you do not have to rely on each service.
