Remove image metadata

Delete hidden EXIF data, GPS coordinates, camera details, XMP, IPTC, comments, thumbnails, Stable Diffusion/ComfyUI prompts and C2PA blocks before you share a photo. JPEG, PNG and WebP are cleaned without recompression.

JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF, HEIC. Files stay on your device.

Add photos to see their metadata groups. Originals are never modified; cleaned copies are offered as downloads.

Method for JPEG, PNG, WebPContainer cleanup recommendedRemoves metadata blocks without recompressing. Quality, transparency and animation are unchanged.Fresh pixel exportRedraws the pixels into a new file. Orientation is baked in and colors become sRGB. The file may grow, the browser may add basic headers, and animation is flattened.

TIFF & HEIC

These are always converted locally into a clean new file. The original container is not rewritten.

High bit depth and HDR are reduced to 8-bit. Multi-page files need an explicit page choice.

What to removeRemove all supported metadataEXIF, GPS, XMP, IPTC, comments, thumbnails, AI prompts/workflows, C2PA/JUMBF blocks, appended data and unknown blocks.Keep orientationKeeps a single EXIF Orientation tag so rotated photos still display upright. It is listed as retained.Keep ICC color profileWithout it, wide-gamut photos (Adobe RGB, Display P3) may look dull. It identifies a color space, not you.

What this cannot do

It does not remove watermarks embedded in the pixels, every unknown proprietary payload, or anything outside the file. Removing a C2PA block deletes provenance data; it is not a judgment of its authenticity.

How to use it

1
Add photos
Drag in one photo or a whole batch, or choose files.
2
Pick what to remove
Keep “Remove all supported metadata” on, or choose groups such as GPS only.
3
Choose a method
Container cleanup keeps quality untouched. Fresh export redraws the pixels.
4
Download
Each copy is re-checked, then saved individually or as a ZIP.

Supported formats

JPEG: Native cleanup without recompression, or fresh pixel export
PNG: Chunk-aware cleanup with valid CRCs, or fresh pixel export
WebP: RIFF-aware cleanup with correct sizes and flags, or fresh pixel export
TIFF: Converts locally to a clean PNG/JPEG
HEIC: Converts locally to a clean PNG/JPEG

Private by design, not by promise.

There is no server to upload to. Your photos and text are processed in this browser tab and disappear when you close it.

How we handle privacy

Questions

Are my photos uploaded to a server?

No. Files are read and rewritten in your browser tab. Nothing is sent over the network.

Does removing metadata reduce image quality?

Not with container cleanup. For JPEG, PNG and WebP only the metadata blocks are removed and the compressed image data stays byte-identical. TIFF and HEIC must be converted to JPEG or PNG.

Why does the cleaned photo still have an Orientation tag?

Without it, photos taken sideways would display rotated. You can turn this off, or use a fresh pixel export to bake the rotation into the pixels.

Can it remove Stable Diffusion or ComfyUI prompts from PNG files?

Yes. PNG text chunks such as “parameters”, “prompt” and “workflow” are detected and removed, along with C2PA (caBX) provenance chunks.

Does this remove invisible watermarks?

No. Watermarks embedded in the pixels themselves are not metadata and cannot be detected or removed this way.

Same privacy: everything stays on your device.
