Frequently asked questions
How can I tell if my photo has a location?
Drop it in. The tool reads the metadata in your browser and shows a warning if it finds GPS data.
What is EXIF data?
EXIF is information your camera or phone stores inside a photo, such as the camera model, the date and time, settings, and often the exact GPS coordinates where it was taken.
Why remove it?
If you share an original photo taken at home, anyone who downloads it may be able to read your address from the GPS data. Many apps strip it, but email, cloud links, forums and marketplaces often don't.
Does removing metadata change the picture?
The image itself looks the same. It is re-encoded at high quality, and the rotation is applied to the pixels so the photo stays the right way up.
Are my photos uploaded to check them?
No. Reading and removing metadata both happen in your browser.
