FAQ

What metadata is removed?

GPS, camera make and model, capture date, software tags, and other EXIF/IPTC/XMP embedded in the file.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The image is read and re-exported with Canvas entirely in your browser.

Will the picture look different?

Pixels stay the same unless you lower JPEG quality. Orientation from EXIF is applied before export.

Why does macOS still show Where from?

That URL is added by your browser when you save the file, not embedded in the image. Strip EXIF removes tags inside the file bytes.

JPEG or PNG?

JPEG is smaller for photos. PNG is lossless but larger. Neither format keeps EXIF after export.

How is this different from Metadata Inspector?

Metadata Inspector shows what is inside a file. Strip EXIF removes metadata and gives you a clean download.
