Strip Image Metadata Online

Remove EXIF, XMP, IPTC, ICC, GPS, and adjacent metadata from images locally in your browser. No upload is required.

This page prioritizes broad image-format coverage by using browser-based ExifTool first, then falling back to a local redraw only when the browser can decode the image but ExifTool cannot rewrite it in-browser.

Your file stays on your device. exif.tools runs the metadata removal locally in your browser and does not upload the image to our server.

How This Strip Tool Works

The primary path uses the browser-side ExifTool runtime already shipped on exif.tools. That gives this page broader image-format coverage than a canvas-only approach and keeps the work on your device.

If ExifTool cannot rewrite a browser-decodable image in the current session, the page can fall back to a local redraw. That still strips metadata, but the byte-level output may differ from the original compression.
