How this tool works

What it does

Re-encodes an image to drop EXIF, GPS and other metadata, producing a clean file.

Not selective

Removes all metadata rather than editing individual fields.

Format & transparency

JPG flattens transparency onto a colour; PNG/WebP keep it only when the source has an alpha channel.

Privacy

Decoding, re-encoding and verification all happen in your browser.

Remove EXIF Metadata in your browser

Remove EXIF Metadata strips embedded metadata from an image by re-encoding it on a browser canvas, which drops the EXIF, GPS and other metadata blocks. It removes all metadata rather than editing individual fields, producing a clean output file.

It parses the source first to report whether EXIF and GPS data were present, then re-reads the output to confirm that no EXIF or GPS markers remain and reports it as verified clean.

Choose JPG, PNG, WebP or keep the source format where possible. JPG flattens transparency onto a background colour, and animated GIFs are processed as a single still frame.

  1. Upload the image whose metadata you want to remove in Remove EXIF Metadata.
  2. Choose an output format and, for JPG, a background colour for transparent areas.
  3. Click Process to re-encode the image and strip its metadata.
  4. Check the EXIF-found and verified-clean result, then download the cleaned file.

Frequently asked questions

Does Remove EXIF Metadata remove all metadata or selected fields?

It removes all embedded metadata. Re-encoding the image drops the EXIF, GPS and other blocks together rather than editing individual fields; the result reports what was present in the source.

Does Remove EXIF Metadata verify the metadata is gone?

Yes. It parses the source for EXIF and GPS, then re-reads the output and checks that no EXIF or GPS markers remain, reporting the output as verified clean when none are found.

Does Remove EXIF Metadata preserve PNG transparency?

If the source has transparency, choose PNG or WebP to preserve it. JPG output flattens transparent areas onto the background colour you select.

What happens to an animated GIF in Remove EXIF Metadata?

It is processed as a single still frame on the canvas; the animation is not preserved in the cleaned output.

Are my images uploaded to remove metadata?

No. The image is decoded, re-encoded and verified entirely in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.
