JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF. EXIF metadata is most common in JPEG and TIFF photos from cameras and phones.

How to view and remove EXIF data

  1. Drag a photo onto the drop zone, or click it to select an image — JPEG and TIFF carry the most metadata.
  2. Read the parsed EXIF table: camera make and model, shooting settings like shutter speed and ISO, and image details.
  3. If a GPS location is embedded, you’ll see a warning banner and a map link showing exactly where the photo was taken.
  4. Click Remove all metadata & download to save a clean copy with every EXIF tag stripped out.
  5. Share the -no-exif copy instead of the original to protect your privacy.

Everything runs in your browser using the Canvas API and the exifr library — your photo is never uploaded, tracked, or stored on any server.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this tool upload my photo?↓

No. The EXIF Data Viewer & Remover runs 100% locally in your browser. Your photo is read and re-encoded entirely on your own device using JavaScript and the Canvas API — it is never uploaded to, transmitted to, or stored on any server.

How do I remove GPS location from a photo?↓

Upload the photo to this tool. If it contains GPS coordinates, a warning banner will show the location. Click Remove all metadata & download to save a clean copy of the image with the GPS data and all other EXIF metadata stripped out, then share that copy instead of the original.

What is EXIF data?↓

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata that cameras and phones embed in photos. It can include the camera make and model, lens, date and time, exposure settings such as shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, image orientation, and — often — the exact GPS coordinates where the photo was taken.

Will removing metadata change how my photo looks?↓

No. The tool re-encodes the image to drop the metadata while preserving the visible pixels. It also reads the EXIF orientation tag first and bakes the correct rotation into the output, so the cleaned photo looks exactly the same as the original.

Why doesn't my PNG or WebP show any EXIF data?↓

EXIF metadata is most commonly found in JPEG and TIFF files produced by cameras and phones. PNG and WebP files often carry little or no EXIF data, so it's normal to see No EXIF metadata found when inspecting them.
