JPG, PNG and WebP are cleaned without re-saving the image. HEIC and AVIF can't be edited in place, so they're re-saved and lose all metadata.

How did this tool do?

A photo remembers where you were.

Phones write the camera, the exact second and the GPS position into every shot. Chat apps and marketplaces often pass that along untouched. Switch between the three states to see what the two cleaners take out.

  • Reading and cleaning both happen in this tab — the photo is never uploaded
  • JPG, PNG and WebP are edited in place, so quality is untouched
  • Keep the camera details and drop only the coordinates, or clear the lot

Straight from the camera roll — every tag travels with the file.

Example file: ordinary phone metadata written into a stock photo, then cleaned with the tool on this page. The tags listed are the ones this site's reader finds in it — 18 before, 10 after removing the location, none after removing everything, with the image data itself unchanged.

How to use it

  1. 01Drop your photos — ones with a location are flagged.
  2. 02Tap Remove location.

Photo location data, answered

Do my photos contain my location?

Photos from phones usually do, unless location is turned off for the camera. Files with coordinates are flagged as soon as you add them.

What else is kept?

Everything except the location: date, camera, settings and orientation stay. To remove all of it, use the EXIF remover.

Don't social networks remove it anyway?

Many do, but messaging apps, email, cloud links and file transfers often keep it. Removing it yourself is the only way to be sure.

Are my images uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser, so your images never leave your device — not even for a moment.
