Image Metadata Remover

The Image Metadata Remover strips embedded metadata, including GPS location, by re-drawing the image through a canvas. It is for anyone wanting to share a photo without the data it carries.

Photos often embed location and device data you may not want to share. Removing it locally produces a clean image without uploading the original.

1. Drop an image into the tool — Image Metadata Remover.
2. It is re-drawn through a canvas, which drops embedded metadata.
3. The cleaned image has no EXIF, including GPS.
4. Download the metadata-free image.

• Remove metadata yourself rather than trusting every platform to strip it.
• Keep an original copy if you need the metadata for your own records.
• Expect a re-encode, so use a high quality setting if the source was high quality.

• Assuming a platform always strips metadata; many do not, so do it yourself.
• Forgetting that re-drawing re-encodes the image, which can slightly change quality.
• Keeping only the cleaned copy when you wanted the metadata preserved elsewhere.
