Frequently Asked Questions

What is EXIF metadata?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data is information stored by digital cameras and smartphones when taking photos. It includes camera settings, date/time, and potentially GPS location.

Why should I remove metadata from images?

Removing metadata protects your privacy by eliminating personal information like location data, camera details, and timestamps that could be used to track you or learn about your habits.

JPG and HEIC files typically contain the most metadata. PNG files can also contain metadata but usually less extensively. All these formats are supported by our tool.
