Frequently Asked Questions
What is image metadata?
Image metadata is information stored in or alongside an image. It can include camera details, capture settings, dates, and location information, depending on the file and device.
How does this image metadata remover work?
The tool redraws a supported image onto a browser canvas and exports a new image file. Metadata that is not carried into the exported file is removed during this process.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
This tool processes images locally in your browser and does not intentionally upload them to our server. Your browser may still make normal website requests while you use the page.
Which image formats are supported?
The tool accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP images. Available output formats depend on browser support, and unsupported conversions will display an error.
Will removing metadata reduce image quality?
Re-encoding can affect image quality, especially when exporting a photo as JPG. PNG is generally a suitable choice when preserving transparency matters, while JPG may be useful for photographs.
Does this remove every type of metadata?
Not necessarily. Canvas re-encoding usually removes common embedded metadata, but it should not be treated as a forensic guarantee that every metadata field has been removed.
