About Remove EXIF Data
Photos from phones and cameras carry hidden metadata: the exact GPS location where they were taken, the date and time, the device model and sometimes even its serial number. Before posting pictures online or sending them to strangers, strip that data out. This tool re-encodes the image without its metadata, so the picture looks the same but carries nothing extra. It runs entirely in your browser.
