Remove Image Metadata
Remove Image Metadata strips hidden EXIF information from a picture before you share it online. It is helpful when photos may contain camera details, timestamps, editing software, or location data that you do not want to publish.

How metadata removal works
The browser redraws the image pixels on a clean canvas and exports the result as a new file. Because metadata is not copied into that fresh canvas export, EXIF tags are removed from the downloadable image.
