Every photo from a phone or camera carries hidden EXIF metadata — the camera model, the date, and often the exact GPS location where it was taken. This tool shows you every field, then lets you download a clean copy with all of it removed.
It runs entirely in your browser, so your photo and its location data are never uploaded to a server.
How to use Photo EXIF Editor
Using Photo EXIF Editor takes only a few seconds and just four simple steps — no sign-up, no software, and nothing to learn:
- Upload the photo: Add the image whose metadata you want to inspect.
- Review the fields: See every EXIF value the photo carries, including any GPS data.
- Remove metadata: Download a clean copy with all EXIF stripped out.
- Save: Keep the cleaned image, safe to share publicly.
What you can do with Photo EXIF Editor
Photo EXIF Editor is built to do one job well, and gives you everything you need to get it exactly right:
See every field. Lists all EXIF data — camera, settings, timestamp, and GPS location.
One-click removal. Strip all metadata by downloading a re-encoded clean copy.
Protects your location. Removing GPS tags stops a photo from revealing where it was taken.
Private and free. Read and cleaned in your browser, never uploaded.
Know — and remove — what your photos reveal
Photos you post can quietly broadcast your home or workplace through GPS tags. Seeing exactly what's embedded, then stripping it before you share, keeps that information private.
Whether you need it once or every day, Photo EXIF Editor keeps the process quick and predictable. Because it focuses on a single task, there are no crowded menus to wade through — you open the page, set what you need, and get your result. That simplicity is exactly why a dedicated image tool beats a heavyweight editor for a job like this.
Everything runs in your browser
Unlike most online tools, Photo EXIF Editor never uploads your image to a server. The moment you choose a file, it is processed right here in your web browser using your own device's power. Nothing is sent over the internet, nothing is stored, and nothing is shared with anyone.
That gives you two real advantages. First, it is private: sensitive documents, ID photos and personal files never leave your computer or phone. Second, it is fast — there is no slow upload or download round-trip, so even large files are handled almost instantly. And it is completely free, with no watermark added to your result and no account required.
Tips for the best results
- Start from the highest-quality original you have — the better the input, the better the result from Photo EXIF Editor.
- Check the exact requirement — size, dimensions, or format — before you begin, so you only need to do it once.
- See every field: Lists all EXIF data — camera, settings, timestamp, and GPS location.
- One-click removal: Strip all metadata by downloading a re-encoded clean copy.
- Everything is repeatable — if the result isn't quite right, just adjust the settings and run it again. Nothing is uploaded, so you can try as many times as you like.
Frequently asked questions
Can I edit individual EXIF values?
This tool views all fields and removes them entirely. Re-encoding strips the metadata rather than rewriting individual tags.
Does removing EXIF change the picture?
No — the visible image is unchanged; only the hidden metadata is dropped.
Is my photo uploaded?
No — reading and cleaning both happen in your browser.
Is Photo EXIF Editor free to use?
Yes — Photo EXIF Editor is completely free. There is no account to create, no subscription, and no watermark added to your result. Use it as many times as you need.
Do I need to install anything?
No. Photo EXIF Editor runs entirely in your web browser on any modern device — Windows, Mac, Android or iPhone. There is nothing to download or install.
