Remove EXIF data from photos

Every photo from a phone or camera carries EXIF data: the device, the settings, the exact time and often the place. Drop a photo here to see what it contains and download a clean copy. Nothing is uploaded.

What EXIF data reveals

EXIF is a block of fields that cameras and phones write into every JPG they save, and that many apps copy into PNG and WebP files as well.

When EXIF data travels with your photo

Many social networks remove EXIF when you upload a picture. Files sent as email attachments, shared through cloud links, sent as documents in messaging apps, posted on marketplaces and forums, or uploaded to your own website usually keep all of it. That is where cleaning matters.

How PureImage removes it

PureImage reads the file in your browser, removes the EXIF, XMP, IPTC and other metadata blocks from the file itself, and leaves the picture untouched, so the image is not re-compressed. It keeps only the orientation, so the photo is not sideways, and the color profile. Afterwards it reads the clean file again and shows how many hidden fields are left: zero.

Frequently asked questions

Does removing EXIF data change the photo?

No. The pixels stay exactly as they were; only the hidden fields are removed. The file usually gets a little smaller.

Can I remove EXIF data from many photos at once?

Yes. Drop several photos at once and download them together as a ZIP.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. Tap the drop zone to pick photos from your library. JPG, PNG and WebP are supported; HEIC photos need to be exported as JPG first.
