What this strips
Every photo you take carries hidden metadata — GPS coordinates, camera model, timestamp, exposure settings, and sometimes the software used to edit it. When you post a photo to social media, text it to someone, or upload it to a form, all of that metadata goes with it. Most people don't realize their home address travels with every photo they share.
CipherForces Metadata Stripper removes every trace of EXIF, IPTC, and XMP metadata by re-encoding the image on a fresh canvas. The visual content is identical; the hidden data is gone.
Privacy: The stripper works by drawing your image onto a fresh canvas and re-exporting it — standard browser canvas export omits all metadata by spec. The original file and all its metadata stay on your device.
Add your photo to the Strip Image Metadata tool, and it removes EXIF data automatically right in your browser. Download the cleaned copy when it finishes. There is no signup, no cost, and no upload. The whole process runs on your own device, so it works even offline.
No. This tool runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript, so your photo never leaves your device or touches a server. The metadata stripping happens locally on your computer or phone. Because nothing is uploaded, your original image and its location data stay completely private to you.
It removes EXIF metadata embedded in your photo, including GPS location coordinates, camera make and model, date and time stamps, and editing history. This information is often added automatically by phones and cameras. Stripping it before you share a photo prevents others from reading those hidden details.
Photos often carry hidden EXIF data like GPS coordinates and timestamps that can reveal where and when you took them. Sharing that information can expose your home address or daily routine. Removing the metadata first keeps the visible image intact while preventing strangers from extracting those private details.
