Common questions before someone trusts a metadata remover

Does this site upload my image to a server?

No. The remover is built for browser-side processing, so the file stays on your device while the cleaned copy is generated.

Which image formats are supported?

The first release supports JPG, PNG, and WebP images.

Will removing metadata reduce image quality?

The tool creates a fresh export of your image. For most sharing use cases the result looks the same, but it is still smart to double-check important originals.

Can this remove GPS location from phone photos?

Yes. If the location is stored in EXIF metadata, exporting a cleaned copy removes that information from the downloaded file.

Is batch processing available?

Not in this first version. The v1 experience is intentionally focused on single-image cleanup with clear privacy messaging.
