Strip hidden data before you share
Photos carry metadata you can't see: where and when they were taken, which device took them, and sometimes its serial number. Remove all of it in one step before posting photos online, sending them to strangers, or publishing them on your website.
When to remove metadata
| Situation | Risk |
|---|---|
| Selling items photographed at home | GPS reveals your address |
| Dating and marketplace profiles | Location and routine |
| Photos of children | Where they live or go to school |
| Publishing on your website or blog | Location, device and editing history |
| Sending files to clients or journalists | Device serial numbers and dates |
How it works
- The browser decodes each photo and applies its orientation.
- The pixels are drawn onto a fresh canvas.
- A new JPG, PNG or WebP file is saved, containing image data only.
Nothing is uploaded, so even sensitive photos stay on your device.
Phone settings
You can also stop location tagging at the source: on iPhone, Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → Camera → Never; on Android, open the Camera app settings and turn off location tags.
