Frequently asked questions
What is EXIF?
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is metadata automatically embedded into JPG photos by cameras and phones: device make and model, capture time, exposure settings, and sometimes the GPS coordinates of where the photo was taken.
Why should I remove EXIF before posting an image?
If a photo contains GPS coordinates, others can see the exact location where it was taken (your home, workplace...) — a real privacy and safety risk. Removing EXIF before posting to social media, listings, or a blog protects your personal information.
Does removing EXIF reduce image quality?
Not noticeably. The tool redraws the image through Canvas at high quality (95%), only removing the metadata — the resolution and visual content are unaffected.
Why does an image sometimes show no EXIF data?
Many platforms (Facebook, WhatsApp, Messenger...) automatically strip EXIF when you upload or download an image. Photos edited with other software can also lose their original EXIF.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Reading and removing EXIF happens entirely in your browser — your images never leave your device.
