EXIF viewer & remover

See what a photo reveals — location above all — and strip it losslessly, on your own device.

Photos are inspected and cleaned on your device — nothing is uploaded

Runs in your browser. Files are never uploaded — you can go offline after the page loads.

How to use the EXIF Viewer & Remover

  1. Drop photos — each is read immediately.
  2. See every metadata field; a warning flags photos that carry your GPS location.
  3. Download clean copies — pixels byte-identical, metadata gone.

Easy to use

Drop files, pick options, download. Whole folders at once, no signup, no daily limit.

Best quality

The same engines the professionals use — SVGO, resvg, MozJPEG, libwebp, libavif — compiled to run in your browser.

Private & secure

Files are processed on your device and never uploaded. Close the tab and nothing remains anywhere.

The data hiding in every photo

A phone photo is not just pixels: it records where you stood (GPS to a few metres), when, on what device, with what software. Post a marketplace listing photographed at home and the coordinates of your house travel with it. This tool shows the full picture before you share — and the GPS warning is deliberately loud, because that is the field that hurts people.

Removal without damage

The usual "EXIF remover" re-encodes your photo, quietly costing quality. This one edits the file's structure instead: for JPEG it removes the metadata segments and keeps the compressed image bytes untouched; for PNG it keeps only the chunks that draw pixels. The clean copy is visually and byte-for-byte identical where it counts. And naturally, photos being inspected for private data are never uploaded anywhere — the whole point. Redact visible content too with Blur / Redact.

Frequently asked questions

What does my photo actually reveal?

Phone photos typically carry the exact GPS coordinates of where they were taken, the precise timestamp, and the phone model — enough to map your home from a marketplace listing or a social post. This tool shows it all before you share, and the warning pill flags GPS instantly.

Does removing metadata damage the photo?

Not here. For JPEG and PNG the tool rewrites the file structure without touching the compressed image data — the pixels are byte-identical, verified by design. (Uploading to a site that “removes EXIF” by re-encoding costs quality; this does not.)

Don’t WhatsApp and Instagram strip EXIF anyway?

Most big social platforms do — but email, cloud drives, marketplaces, forums and many chat apps do not. The honest rule: if you did not strip it yourself, assume it is still there.

Your files never leave your device

Most online converters upload your file to a server. InfyTool ships the actual encoders to your browser as WebAssembly instead, so processing happens inside your tab — faster for batches, and nothing to delete afterwards.

  • No upload, ever. Turn off Wi-Fi after the page loads and every tool keeps working.
  • No limits. No file-size cap, no queue, no watermark, no account.
  • Runs on your CPU. Batches use several cores in parallel; nothing is throttled.
