Hapus Data EXIF

Most phones and cameras quietly write the date and time, the device model, the exposure settings and, if location services are on, the GPS coordinates of where you were standing. Share the original file and anyone who downloads it can read all of that with a free viewer. Some platforms strip it on upload, but email attachments, cloud links, forums and file transfers often pass it along untouched.

This tool removes that metadata from JPG, PNG and WebP files right in your browser. It cuts the metadata out of the file without decoding and re-saving the image, so quality is exactly the same afterwards, and each result tells you what was found and removed.

EXIF, XMP, IPTC and comments explained

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is the block cameras fill in automatically: make and model, lens, shutter speed, ISO, date taken, orientation, sometimes the device's serial number, and GPS latitude, longitude and altitude. XMP is Adobe's XML-based metadata, written by Lightroom, Photoshop and many phone apps, which can hold edit history, ratings, keywords and again location. IPTC is the newsroom standard for captions, credits, copyright notices and contact details, stored in JPEGs inside a Photoshop resource block. On top of these, JPEG files can contain free-text comments, and PNG files can carry text chunks and a timestamp.

The GPS fields are the real privacy risk. Coordinates in a photo taken at home are often precise to a few metres, so a picture of your pet can reveal your address, and a series of photos can reveal daily routines. Removing the metadata closes that leak without changing what people see.

When to strip metadata

Lossless removal: what goes and what stays

The tool reads the file as raw bytes and walks through its structure, copying the blocks that hold the image and leaving out the ones that hold metadata. The compressed picture data is never decoded or re-encoded, so pixels, dimensions and compression are identical to the original. From JPEGs it removes EXIF, XMP, IPTC and Photoshop blocks, embedded thumbnails, multi-picture data, other application segments and comments; from PNGs, the text, eXIf and timestamp chunks; from WebP, the EXIF and XMP chunks. Bytes stuck on after the end of the image, such as the video part of some motion photos, go too.

Three JPEG blocks are deliberately kept because the image depends on them. The JFIF header tells decoders how to read the basic colour data and pixel aspect. The ICC colour profile, used for Display P3 iPhone photos or Adobe RGB exports, keeps colours from shifting. The Adobe APP14 marker tells decoders how to interpret CMYK and YCCK channels; without it, some JPEGs show badly wrong colours. Colour profiles in PNG and WebP files stay as well. After processing, each result row lists what was removed, for example Removed: EXIF, XMP, or says No metadata found. For a JPEG stored sideways the row also says Kept: orientation.

Cara memakai alat ini

1. 1Drop your JPG, PNG or WebP photos onto the box above, or click to select them. Files up to 100 MB are accepted.
2. 2There are no settings to choose; the tool always removes all metadata it recognises.
3. 3Press Convert. Each row shows the new size and a line listing the metadata that was removed.
4. 4Download the cleaned files one by one, or press Download all (.zip) to get them together.

Limitations

• The orientation flag is the one EXIF value that is kept. When a phone stored a JPEG sideways and marked it to be turned, the cleaned file gets a tiny new EXIF block holding only that orientation, so it still displays upright; no location, camera or date fields go back in.
• Only JPG, PNG and WebP are supported. HEIC, GIF, TIFF and RAW files are not accepted.
• Information visible in the picture itself, such as street signs, faces or reflections, cannot be removed by stripping metadata.
• A damaged file whose structure cannot be read is reported as an error instead of being partly cleaned.
