Why remove location data from photos

Photo location metadata can reveal where an image was taken, including travel stops, homes, or places you may not want to share publicly.

Before sharing

A photo can carry hidden GPS coordinates, geotags, camera details, and timestamps alongside the visible image.

After cleaning

A cleaned image copy is ready for public photo sharing, social posting, or sending with embedded location metadata removed.

How it works

Preview and remove GPS and geotag metadata in four simple steps

1

Upload your photo

Choose a supported JPG, JPEG, or PNG image from your device.

2

Preview location metadata

Inspect hidden GPS coordinates, geotags, and related EXIF fields before cleaning.

3

Remove detected metadata

Create a cleaned image copy with embedded metadata removed, including GPS fields when they are present.

4

Download the cleaned copy

Save the cleaned photo. If no GPS data is found, you can still download a metadata-cleaned copy.

What location metadata gets removed

The image cleaner removes embedded metadata from supported image files, including hidden location fields when the original photo contains them.

Hidden GPS latitude data
Hidden GPS longitude data
GPS altitude, if available
Embedded geotags
Camera and location EXIF metadata
Timestamps, when removed by the image cleaner
Device location metadata
Other embedded image metadata

Exact metadata depends on the image and what the original photo contains. If no GPS data is found, you can still download a cleaned copy.
