FreeNo uploadsNo sign-up

Who it is for

Websites, online stores, creators, social media and everyday photos.

What you get

Get a re-encoded image that typically excludes common EXIF metadata.

Animated files export as a still frame. Conversion may change colour profiles; complete metadata removal depends on the browser. Not intended for preserving animation or exact colour-profile workflows.

How to use this tool

  1. 01 · Choose an image

    Select a photograph with embedded EXIF information. It is processed locally in your browser.

  2. 02 · Keep your desired parameters

    Retain image dimensions and an appropriate output format when possible. Re-encoding always creates a new file.

  3. 03 · Check before sharing

    Canvas usually omits common EXIF fields, but for sensitive files verify the output independently. This is not a forensic sanitiser.

Frequently asked questions

Are all metadata guaranteed to disappear?

No. Browser re-encoding usually drops common EXIF fields, but this depends on the implementation. Verify sensitive images separately.

Can this affect image quality?

Yes. JPEG and WebP may be re-compressed and colour profiles can change in some browsers.
