Re-encoding can alter metadata, animation, profiles, or quality, so verify every output.

Complete tool guide

Understand and remove image metadata

Images can contain camera model, exposure, capture time, author, software, and GPS fields. The viewer shows readable embedded data when the format and metadata block are supported.

A clean copy is created by decoding and re-encoding the visible image without carrying source metadata into the new file.

Re-encoding disclosure

Removing metadata this way can change compression, file size, bit depth, animation, and color-profile handling. It is not a lossless metadata edit.

Format coverage

Basic file and dimension facts work for every supported format. Embedded block coverage varies by format, and WebP metadata is not parsed by the current reader.

Practical tips for better results

Look specifically for latitude and longitude.
Keep the original privately.
Verify color after removing profiles.
Do not assume social platforms remove metadata.

Frequently asked questions

Is GPS always present?

No. It appears only when a device recorded it and it survived later edits or exports.

Does viewing metadata upload the image?

No. Parsing happens in your browser.
