Is this EXIF viewer tool free to use?

Yes, completely free with no limits. No signup, no subscription, and no hidden fees. You can view and strip EXIF data from as many images as you need.

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data is metadata embedded in photos by cameras and smartphones. It includes camera model, lens info, shutter speed, aperture, ISO, GPS coordinates, date/time, and more.

Why should I strip EXIF data from photos?

Stripping EXIF data protects your privacy by removing sensitive information like GPS coordinates (revealing where a photo was taken), device details, and timestamps before sharing photos online.

Does stripping EXIF data reduce image quality?

No. Stripping EXIF data only removes the metadata embedded in the file. The actual image pixels and quality remain completely unchanged.

No. All EXIF reading and stripping happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your photos never leave your device, and no data is sent to any server.

Photos can contain sensitive metadata including GPS coordinates (revealing where you were), device serial numbers, and timestamps. Stripping this data before posting online prevents others from extracting your location history and device details.

No. Stripping removes only the metadata portion of the file. The actual image data and visual quality remain completely untouched. The file size typically decreases slightly since the metadata bytes are removed.

This tool supports JPEG/JPG (richest EXIF data), PNG, TIFF, and WebP files. JPEG images typically contain the most metadata since the EXIF standard was designed primarily for this format.
