How to remove photo metadata
Choose files and add the original photos you want to prepare for sharing. Keep a separate copy of the originals; the tool creates re-encoded output rather than editing your source file in place.
Choose Run EXIF Removal. The tool applies orientation correction and cleans embedded photo metadata while creating the new image. Wait for a completed result before downloading it.
Compare the original and result, especially rotation and fine detail. Download a completed image or choose Download Batch ZIP for the completed set. Images are re-encoded, so the downloaded bytes and appearance can change.
Check a representative downloaded copy with an independent metadata viewer before sensitive sharing. Review the separate verification reference below for its defined scope, and inspect visible content and filenames as well.
Can I remove GPS location from photo metadata?
Use the tool to clean embedded EXIF metadata, which can include GPS coordinates. Check a downloaded copy with an independent metadata viewer before sensitive sharing. The separate reference below describes the defined verification scope.
Does EXIF removal change image orientation?
Orientation correction is applied before the new image is encoded. Compare the downloaded image with the original to confirm that it is upright.
Will image quality change?
Images are re-encoded, so slight changes are possible. Keep originals separately for archival or legal use.
Can I clean several photos together?
Yes. Choose files to add several images, run the removal, then download completed results individually or with Download Batch ZIP. Check a representative downloaded image before sharing the set.
Is EXIF cleanup enough for privacy?
Not always. Remove sensitive visible content and filenames too when sharing externally.
What the metadata-cleanup reference proves
The EXIF tool corrects orientation and re-encodes an image, so its downloaded bytes can differ from the source even when the picture looks the same. IMAGEEE publishes a narrower, reproducible container reference separately: synthetic JPEG, PNG, and WebP files carry known EXIF, XMP, GPS, and comment records, and a checked-in parser confirms the declared carriers are absent from the paired scrubbed fixtures.
That static reference is not a live IMAGEEE job result and does not prove that every possible metadata field, malformed container, filename, sidecar file, or platform copy is removed. Keep important originals and inspect a representative downloaded result with an independent metadata viewer when privacy or compliance depends on the outcome.

Private sharing situations this tool covers
Use EXIF cleanup before a photo leaves your device or team: remove EXIF data, GPS location, camera model details, and hidden iPhone photo metadata before publishing, marketplace uploads, support tickets, or external review.
