HEIC/HEIF need to be converted to JPG first — use the HEIC to JPG tool, then come back.
Why strip EXIF before sharing?
Phones embed GPS coordinates and timestamps into every photo by default. If you post a raw file on a forum, in a bug report, to cloud storage, or as an email attachment, the recipient can extract your home address from the first selfie you share. Social platforms strip this on upload, but image hosts and chat apps frequently do not.
How it works
This tool decodes the photo into canvas pixels and re-encodes them as a fresh JPG, PNG, or WebP. Because the pixel buffer has no concept of EXIF, nothing survives the round trip — no camera make, no lens, no GPS, no timestamps. Pixel data is preserved; you will see a very small quality shift if you drop JPG quality below ~90%.
Privacy note
Everything runs in your browser. The image never touches a server. You can verify with a quick check in the EXIF Viewer before and after.
