How to remove EXIF data in 3 steps

Safe, private, and instant metadata removal for photographers and creators.

Upload your photos

Drag and drop one or multiple JPEG, PNG, or WebP images into the tool.

Inspect detected tags

Review all embedded camera metadata, copyright information, and GPS geotags.

Download clean photos

Click strip to purge all metadata while preserving 100% of the image visual quality.

Why removing EXIF data matters for your privacy

Every photo taken with a smartphone or digital camera embeds extensive private data.

Protect Your Physical Location

Smartphones embed exact latitude and longitude coordinates. Sharing photos online can unintentionally reveal your home, workplace, or travel habits.

Safeguard Your Identity & Gear

EXIF records camera serial numbers, lens IDs, owner names, and editing software, allowing bad actors to correlate your online activity.

Anonymize Marketplace Photos

Before selling items on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, or eBay, strip metadata to avoid leaking where the item is stored.

Reduce File Size for Faster Web Loading

Unnecessary metadata, embedded thumbnails, and XMP packets can add up to 60 KB per image. Stripping them saves bandwidth.

よくある質問

Does removing EXIF metadata reduce the image quality?

No. Removing EXIF data only wipes the non-visual header information (camera model, exposure, GPS, date). The actual pixel data and image resolution remain completely unaffected.

Are my photos uploaded to any external server?

Never. Image Layered processes your files entirely within your local web browser using client-side JavaScript. Your photos never leave your device.

Can I process multiple photos at once?

Yes. You can upload dozens of photos simultaneously, strip all EXIF metadata with a single click, and download them all bundled into a convenient ZIP archive.

Which image formats are supported?

The tool supports JPEG, JPG, PNG, WebP, and AVIF image formats, covering all modern camera and smartphone photos.

What is the difference between EXIF data and GPS data?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is an umbrella standard that includes camera hardware settings (ISO, aperture, shutter speed), timestamps, and copyright. GPS data is a specific sub-record within EXIF that stores exact geographic coordinates.
