Visualiseur et Nettoyeur EXIF

No. Parsing and removal run entirely in your browser with JavaScript. The photo never leaves your device — you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the tool keeps working.

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is a block of metadata cameras and phones embed in every photo: GPS coordinates, capture date and time, camera make and model, lens, exposure settings, and often the editing software used. It is invisible in the picture itself but readable by anyone with the file.

Not for JPEG. The tool strips metadata segments at the byte level without touching the compressed image data, so the pixels are bit-for-bit identical. PNG and WebP files are re-encoded, which is lossless for PNG.

Most large platforms (Instagram, Facebook, X) strip metadata from displayed images, but they still receive and may store the original. Marketplaces, forums, email attachments and messengers with a "send original" option often keep EXIF intact. Cleaning the file before sending is the only way to be sure.

No. The metadata segments are physically removed from the file you download, not just hidden. However, copies you shared before cleaning still contain the original metadata.

GPS latitude and longitude are by far the most sensitive — they can reveal your home, workplace or daily routine. Date/time and device serial numbers come next, since they support tracking and correlation across photos.
