Image Metadata Viewer & Remover

What is Image Metadata?

Image metadata, commonly known as EXIF data (Exchangeable Image File Format), is information automatically embedded into photos by cameras, smartphones, and image editing software. This hidden data can reveal far more than you might expect.

What Metadata Does Your Image Contain?

• GPS Location — Exact latitude, longitude, and altitude of where the photo was taken
• Camera Settings — Aperture, shutter speed, ISO, focal length, and more
• Device Info — Camera make and model, lens model, firmware version
• Timestamps — Date and time the photo was taken and modified
• Software — Editing software used (Photoshop, Lightroom, etc.)
• Author/Copyright — Creator name and copyright notices

Why Remove Image Metadata?

• Privacy — GPS coordinates in photos you share publicly can reveal your home address, workplace, or daily routine
• Security — Device and software information can expose system vulnerabilities
• Professionalism — Remove personal details before sharing images commercially
• File Size — Removing metadata slightly reduces file size

How It Works

This tool processes your images entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server. Metadata is removed by redrawing the image onto an HTML Canvas element, which captures only the pixel data and exports a fresh image with no embedded metadata.
