Remove EXIF & Metadata from Photos
Remove EXIF metadata from photos online — GPS location, camera model, timestamps and editing history — before you share them.
How to use Remove EXIF Data
Phone photos quietly carry GPS coordinates, device model, and exact timestamps. Drop one or many photos and each is re-encoded pixel-perfect with the metadata left behind — orientation is applied first so nothing ends up sideways. The result card confirms the size difference, which is often a nice bonus saving.
- Drop your files into the box above, or click it to browse. You can also paste from the clipboard.
- Adjust the options to taste — the defaults are sensible for most cases.
- Press Process and watch the progress bar; everything runs on your device.
- Download your result — individually, or as a ZIP when there are several files.
Like every tool on ImageCompressorKits, this runs 100% in your browser: your file is never uploaded to any server, which makes it safe to use even with private documents — and it keeps working if you go offline after the page loads.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly gets removed?
Everything outside the pixels: GPS coordinates, camera make and model, timestamps, software tags, thumbnails and color-profile extras. The visible image is unchanged.
Does WhatsApp or Instagram already remove EXIF?
Major social apps strip metadata on upload, but email, cloud drives, marketplaces and many forums do not. Strip it yourself before sharing anywhere you don't control.
Is this tool really free?
Yes — completely free, with no signup, no watermark, and no file limits beyond what your device's memory can handle.
Are my files private?
Yes. Processing happens locally in your browser via JavaScript; nothing is transmitted or stored. See our privacy policy for the full picture.
