FAQ
Common questions
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Metadata is read and removed entirely in your browser.
Does cleaning guarantee all metadata is gone?
It removes everything this tool can detect and act on: EXIF, GPS, and common text/IPTC metadata in JPEG, PNG, and WebP files. It doesn't guarantee removal of every possible embedded object a file could theoretically contain, and it can't act on metadata in formats it doesn't parse. The result is re-read after cleaning, and you'll see a clear warning if anything remains.
Does cleaning recompress my photo?
Usually no — metadata is removed by deleting the relevant file segments directly, without decoding or re-encoding the image, so pixels are untouched. The one exception is a JPEG whose EXIF says it was taken sideways or upside down: that photo is redrawn upright first (so it still looks correct once the orientation tag is gone), which does recompress it slightly. The tool tells you when this happens.
What counts as sensitive metadata?
GPS coordinates are the clearest example — they reveal exactly where a photo was taken — and are flagged in red. Software, artist, and copyright fields are also marked, since they can identify you or your equipment.
Which formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG, and WebP. Other formats aren't recognized and show a clear error instead of a wrong result.
