EXIF / Image Metadata Viewer
See the camera, lens, exposure, date and location details a photo carries, and save a copy with all of it removed. The photo is read on your device and never uploaded.
Quick guide
How to use this tool
Add a photo. JPEG and TIFF carry the most detail, and HEIC, PNG, and WebP are read where they store it.
Read the camera, lens, exposure, date, and location details. Anything holding a GPS position is flagged, because it shows where the photo was taken.
Copy a single value or all of the metadata, or download a copy of the image with the metadata removed.

What it shows
What your photo is quietly telling people.
Photos carry far more than the picture. Cameras and phones record how the shot was taken, when, and often exactly where.
If the file holds GPS coordinates they are shown clearly and marked as sensitive, because they reveal where the photo was taken.
Download the same picture with the metadata gone, made by saving the pixels again so nothing can be carried across.
Frequently asked questions
Can a photo really contain my location?
Yes. Phones record GPS coordinates into the file by default unless you have turned location off for the camera. The coordinates are usually accurate to a few metres, so a photo posted publicly can show a home or a workplace. This tool flags it whenever it is there.
Is my photo uploaded to check it?
No. The file is read in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere. That is essential for a tool like this: uploading a photo to find out what private information it carries would defeat the purpose.
How does removing the metadata work?
The picture is decoded and saved again from its pixels alone. A canvas holds only the image itself, with no room for EXIF, IPTC or GPS, so nothing can be carried across. The trade-off is that saving again changes the file size, and for JPG it re-compresses the picture slightly.
Why can't I clean every kind of file?
A cleaned copy is offered only for JPG, PNG and WebP, which browsers can save again. HEIC and TIFF cannot be re-encoded here, and producing a file that had not really been cleaned would be worse than saying so. Convert those first, then clean the result.
My photo shows no metadata. Is something wrong?
No, that is a normal answer. Screenshots, images saved from the web, and anything sent through a service that strips metadata often carry nothing at all. Many messaging apps remove it when they re-compress a photo.
