This tool draws your image onto a canvas and re-exports it, canvas rendering only ever carries the visible pixel data, not the original file's metadata segments, so re-encoding this way strips EXIF camera data, GPS location, timestamps, and any other embedded metadata as a natural side effect, no metadata-specific logic needed, which makes this a thorough and reliable removal method.
Photos taken on phones and cameras often embed GPS coordinates, device information, and timestamps in EXIF metadata. Stripping this before sharing a photo publicly (on a website, marketplace listing, or social media) prevents that hidden information, including your exact location, from being unintentionally exposed to anyone who inspects the file.
Upload a photo taken on your phone that includes GPS coordinates, camera model, and a timestamp in its EXIF data (visible if you first check it with our EXIF Viewer). Running it through this tool re-encodes the image via canvas, which only ever carries visible pixel data, and produces a new file with none of that metadata. Run the output back through EXIF Viewer afterward and it should report no EXIF data found, confirming the removal worked.
Sharing the original photo publicly before running it through this tool, once a photo with embedded GPS coordinates has been posted or sent, stripping metadata from a copy afterward doesn't undo the earlier exposure, strip metadata before sharing, not after.
Assuming a screenshot needs metadata removal, screenshots and graphics typically don't carry camera EXIF data (GPS, device model) to begin with, this tool matters most for actual camera and phone photos.
Not verifying the removal actually worked, since it's easy to assume re-encoding always succeeds, running the output through the EXIF Viewer afterward confirms metadata is genuinely gone rather than just trusting the process silently.
The output uses a high quality setting for formats that need re-encoding (like JPEG), so any quality difference is minimal. PNG and WebP inputs are re-encoded losslessly where the browser supports it.
Run the output file through our EXIF Viewer, it should show no EXIF data found.
