Prepare supported images for sharing with less embedded metadata.

A LITTLE IMAGE HOUSEKEEPING

Share fewer details.

JPEG/PNG only. The image is decoded, its orientation applied, then re-encoded and stripped of EXIF/GPS, XMP, comments, text and color-profile chunks. JPEG uses quality 92%; pixels/quality and colors may change. PNG alpha is preserved. This cannot remove identifying details visible in the picture.

10 MiB · 25 megapixels · 10,000 px per side. Animated PNG, SVG, HEIC, GIF, WebP and multi-picture JPEG are unsupported.

A FEW SIMPLE STEPS

How to use it

  1. Select a supported image.
  2. Review the supported metadata-removal behavior.
  3. Export a new file and verify it before sharing.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE

A photograph may include embedded camera or GPS information in addition to its visible pixels.

Know the limits

JPEG/PNG only, 10 MiB and 25 megapixels. Orientation is applied and the image re-encoded before stripping metadata; JPEG quality and colors can change. PNG alpha is preserved. Visible identifying details are not removed.

A good question

Will metadata removal anonymize a photo?

No. Faces, signs, reflections, and other visual details can still identify people or locations.
