Metadata Remover
Remove image metadata after viewing EXIF, GPS, author, software, device, and privacy risks locally in your browser, with no server upload.
View Image Metadata
Analyze locally in your browser. Your image never leaves your device.
Supports JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, and TIFF. Analysis starts only when you click.
View metadata before you remove it
A useful remover should explain what it found, what can be cleaned, and what still needs human review.
Risk-first summary
Review high-risk GPS, device serial, author, software, capture-time, and workflow fields before deleting anything.
Original-format cleanup
When browser cleanup is reliable, download a cleaned JPG, PNG, or WebP instead of an unclear conversion.
Before-after evidence
Export JSON reports and re-analyze the cleaned file so teams can document exactly what changed.
Use a repeatable cleanup checklist
The safest metadata removal flow is inspect, decide, clean, download, and inspect again.
Analyze the final file
Start with the image that will be published, sent, attached, stored, or served.
Decide what should travel
Separate useful production metadata from location, identity, device, and workflow fields that should stay private.
Remove and verify
Download the cleaned copy, upload it as a new file, and confirm the common readable fields are gone.
Removal happens locally when supported
Viewing, JSON export, and supported cleanup run in the browser. Unsupported formats are labeled instead of silently converting or pretending cleanup happened.
- Metadata cleanup does not remove private details that are visible in the image pixels.
- Some proprietary maker notes, damaged segments, encrypted payloads, or steganographic content may be outside common browser parsing.
- Keep originals privately when production metadata still has archive value, and publish only the cleaned derivative.
Metadata remover questions
Answers specific to local cleanup, supported formats, and verification.
Viewing first shows which fields exist and helps you decide whether GPS, author, device, software, or color data should be removed.
Cleanup depends on detected format support. Unsupported cleanup is labeled instead of doing a risky or misleading conversion.
No. It is practical cleanup for common readable metadata, not a forensic certification of every byte or visible detail.
Cleanup availability is determined after analysis. Reliable browser-local cleanup is designed for supported JPG, PNG, and WebP files; other formats can still be inspected and exported to JSON when readable.
When original-format cleanup is supported, the workflow avoids presenting a silent format conversion as metadata removal. Keep the original, compare the downloaded derivative visually, and re-analyze it before sharing.
Analyze the downloaded copy, inspect visible pixels for sensitive text or people, and check the final served file if a CMS or CDN processes it again. Cleanup covers supported hidden metadata, not every later publishing step.
