Frequently Asked Questions
- What is EXIF data?
- EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data is hidden metadata embedded in photos by your camera or smartphone. It can include GPS coordinates, camera model, lens settings, date and time, and even your device serial number.
- Why should I remove EXIF data from my photos?
- EXIF data can reveal your exact location, daily routines, and device information. Removing it before sharing photos online protects your privacy and prevents others from tracking where and when a photo was taken.
- Is this tool free to use?
- Yes, completely free with no signup required. You can remove EXIF data from as many images as you want. All processing happens directly in your browser — your photos are never uploaded to any server.
- Does removing EXIF data affect image quality?
- No. Removing EXIF data only strips the metadata. The actual image pixels, resolution, and quality remain completely unchanged.
- What image formats are supported?
- This tool works with JPEG/JPG images, which is the most common format that contains EXIF data. PNG files generally do not contain EXIF data.
- Are my photos uploaded to a server?
- No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your images never leave your device, making this tool completely private and secure.
