Create clean copies locally, compare readable metadata before and after, and remove common EXIF, GPS, camera, timestamp, and software fields without an upload.
Remove metadata locally
The practical guide
Each selected image is decoded to pixels, written into a new file, and parsed again. The result card compares the readable embedded-field count before and after without claiming every possible metadata container was removed.
The tool reads supported fields before cleaning and parses the new output again. A result such as “Before: 18 readable fields. After: 0 readable fields.” describes this parser’s result, not a universal forensic guarantee.
Canvas re-encoding normally leaves behind common EXIF GPS coordinates, camera and lens identifiers, capture timestamps, orientation records, embedded thumbnails, and editing-software fields.
JPG remains JPG, WebP remains WebP, and other browser-readable inputs are written as PNG when their original output encoder is unavailable. Up to 20 images can be cleaned in one local batch.
PNG output is lossless at the pixel level. JPG and WebP are encoded again at high quality, so their pixels and file sizes can change slightly even when the image looks the same.
Downloads use a new filename and never overwrite the source. Keep the original until you have opened the clean copy, confirmed its appearance, and checked compatibility with the destination.
Privacy by architecture
Tool inputs, settings, and outputs are processed locally and are not intentionally sent to an application server.
Questions, answered
No. Many images contain no readable EXIF at all. The tool still creates a new copy and reports the supported before-and-after field counts.
No. The tool creates a new downloadable file and never overwrites the selected image.
The pixels are encoded again. Compression efficiency and quality settings differ from the software that created the original.
