What your photos reveal

🕵️ EXIF Viewer & Stripper

Drop a photo to see the metadata hiding inside — camera, timestamps and even GPS location — then download a cleaned copy with every trace removed, or write your own author, copyright and coordinates into the file. Pixel data stays untouched (no re-encoding).

Drop a photo to reveal its hidden metadata.

JPEG: metadata lives in APPn segments (EXIF/XMP in APP1, comments in COM) — the cleaner drops those segments while keeping the compressed image data byte-for-byte identical, so quality is untouched (ICC color profile is kept). PNG: text/eXIf/time chunks are removed. Writing rebuilds the EXIF block to the TIFF spec: existing tags are carried over (except MakerNote, whose absolute offsets break when relocated); old XMP/IPTC blocks are dropped so viewers don't show stale values over the new ones, and Windows XP* tags (Authors/Title) are written alongside; PNG additionally gets eXIf + iTXt chunks. Messaging apps usually strip EXIF, but email, cloud drives and many forums do not.
