Frequently Asked Questions

What is EXIF data and why should I remove it?
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data is metadata embedded in photos by cameras and phones. It can contain your GPS location, device model, timestamp, and more. Removing it protects your privacy when sharing photos online.
Does stripping EXIF data reduce image quality?
No. EXIF metadata is separate from the actual image pixels. Removing it does not change the visual quality of the image at all — it only reduces the file size slightly.
What formats does the EXIF viewer support?
The tool supports JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, and TIFF. Most smartphones produce JPG or HEIC files. HEIC support requires a modern browser.
Is my image uploaded to your server?
No. All EXIF reading and metadata stripping happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your images never leave your device.
Can I recover EXIF data after stripping it?
No — once stripped, the metadata is permanently removed from the downloaded file. The original file on your device is untouched, so always keep a backup if you need the original metadata.
