Image EXIF Stripper
Image
Removes every kind of embedded metadata (EXIF, GPS coordinates, camera info, IPTC, XMP, ICC color profile, thumbnails) by re-encoding the image through a canvas. The cleaned file contains only pixels and a minimal header. Useful before sharing screenshots, posting photos online, or sending files to third parties.
The output contains only pixels — no EXIF, no GPS, no camera info.
How to use
- Pick the output format — JPEG (smaller, lossy), PNG (lossless, larger), or WebP (smaller than JPEG, lossy).
- Adjust quality for JPEG / WebP (PNG has no quality slider — it's always lossless).
- Drop an image, then download the cleaned copy with the Download button.
Frequently asked questions
- Is anything uploaded?
- No. The image is read, decoded, and re-encoded entirely with the browser's Canvas API — nothing leaves your device.
- Why is the cleaned file sometimes bigger?
- Re-encoding (especially to PNG) can produce a larger file than the original. Choose JPEG or WebP at ~90% quality for output usually smaller than or close to the original size.
- Does it preserve transparency?
- PNG and WebP preserve transparency. JPEG has no alpha channel — transparent areas become white.
- Can I check that EXIF was actually removed?
- Yes — run the cleaned file through the EXIF Viewer tool on this site; the metadata sections should all be empty.
