EXIF Remover

Drop photos to strip metadata

JPEG, PNG, or HEIC. We strip GPS, dates, camera details, software history, and IPTC tags. Files never leave your device.

Advanced: pick what to remove
What it does

Drop the location. Keep the date.

Advanced mode clears only the GPS coordinates and leaves the capture date, camera, and exposure intact. Or strip every EXIF tag at once when you want a clean wipe.

Strip only the location

Advanced mode lets you clear just the GPS coordinates while keeping the date, camera, lens, and exposure intact.

Or wipe everything

Leave advanced mode off and the tool removes every EXIF marker in one click, the safest default for full privacy.

Keep the date you need

The capture date and camera survive, so the photo still proves when and with what it was taken, just without the geotag.

Nothing uploads

The photo is read and cleaned in your browser. The file and its coordinates never leave your device.

Batch and ZIP

Drop several photos at once, strip the location from all of them, and download the results together as a ZIP.

JPEG and HEIC

Works on iPhone HEIC and standard JPEG. HEIC is converted to JPEG first, then the location is removed.

FAQ

Common questions about removing GPS from a photo.

How do I remove only the GPS from a photo?
Drop the photo onto the tool, then turn on advanced mode and leave only the GPS coordinates toggle on. The tool clears the latitude and longitude while keeping the date, camera, and the rest of the EXIF. Download the cleaned file. Everything runs in your browser; nothing uploads.
Can I keep the date and camera while stripping the location?
Yes. That is exactly what advanced mode is for. With advanced mode off, the tool wipes every EXIF marker for a clean strip. With advanced mode on, you pick what to remove, so you can clear only the GPS and keep the capture date, camera make and model, lens, and exposure settings intact.
Why would I remove the GPS but keep everything else?
The date and camera details are often useful: they prove when a photo was taken and which device shot it, which matters for insurance, listings, and personal sorting. The GPS is the part that leaks where you live, work, or where a child was photographed. Removing only the location keeps the helpful data and drops the risky part.
Is removing the geotag really private?
Yes. The photo is parsed entirely in your browser using local JavaScript. The file never leaves your device, there is no upload, no account, and no logging. We never see your image or its coordinates.
Which photo formats can I clean?
JPEG and HEIC (iPhone) carry GPS and can be cleaned; HEIC is converted to JPEG first. PNG files do not carry EXIF GPS, so they are passed through unchanged. You can drop several photos at once and download them together as a ZIP.
Do social platforms not already remove the GPS?
Instagram, Facebook, X, TikTok, and WhatsApp strip EXIF including GPS on upload, but you cannot rely on that everywhere. Email, Dropbox, Google Drive, iCloud sharing, and most direct file transfers keep the GPS intact. When you send the original file to anyone, strip the location yourself first.

Capture-time alternative

Want the location on the photo, on purpose?

Sometimes you want the location to travel with the shot instead of hiding inside the file where platforms strip it. The iOS app renders the GPS coordinates and address directly onto the visible image at the shutter, so where a photo was taken survives every upload, screenshot, and PDF export.
