What hidden data is in a photo?

Many phones save the exact coordinates where a photo was taken — sometimes your home.

The time the photo was taken, the phone or camera model, and editing software.

Some apps keep this data when you share a file. Removing it protects your privacy.

For JPG, PNG and WEBP only the metadata blocks are cut out. The image data stays byte-for-byte the same.

If a photo relies on a rotation tag, only that tag is kept so the picture does not turn sideways.

Each cleaned file is read again to confirm nothing is left. HEIC files are saved as JPG.

How do I remove the location from a photo?

Drop the photo above. The tool shows the GPS data it found and gives you a copy without it.

Does removing EXIF reduce quality?

No for JPG, PNG and WEBP — only the hidden data is removed. HEIC photos are re-saved as high-quality JPG.

Do social networks remove EXIF?

Many large ones do, but messaging apps, email and file sharing often keep it.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. Cropping, resizing and compression all happen in your browser. Your photo is never sent to or stored on a server.
