0 B uploaded — this page has not sent your files to any server?

Private by design — metadata is inspected and removed entirely inside your browser, so your photos are never uploaded anywhere. The more sensitive the photo, the more this matters.How this differs from upload-based sites — most converter sites upload your photo to a server, process it there, and promise to delete it after a while. Until that happens, your photo is sitting on someone else's server. imgmoa has no upload step at all. The more sensitive the photo — a scanned ID, a photographed contract, pictures of your kids — the more that difference matters.

Check where a photo was taken before you send it, then wipe it

Phone photos carry hidden details alongside the picture: GPS coordinates, the capture time and the camera model. This tool shows you exactly what a file contains the moment you add it, then makes a clean copy with all of it removed. Both steps happen inside your browser, so a photo that reveals a location is never sent anywhere.

A closer look

When location tagging is on in the camera app, every shot stores latitude and longitude in a block of EXIF metadata. Many social apps strip it on upload, but it survives wherever the original file travels intact: email attachments, cloud share links, marketplace or forum attachments. That is why this tool shows before it deletes. Each file gets a row listing the coordinates (to five decimal places), the capture date and time, the camera make and model, and how many metadata fields it holds, and the status line sums up how many of your photos contain GPS data.

Removal does not hunt for individual tags. The pixels are redrawn onto a fresh canvas and saved as a new file, so EXIF, XMP and the ICC color profile are all left behind with nothing to miss. JPGs are saved as JPG at 95% quality; PNG and WebP files are saved as lossless PNG. The width and height stay exactly the same, but the file size shifts a little, and a WebP usually grows once it becomes a PNG. The capture date goes too, so gallery apps will sort the clean copy by the date the file was created.

How to use it

Drop photos onto the page or press Choose files. You can add several JPG, PNG or WebP files at once.
Read the rows that appear: coordinates, capture time, camera model and field count. Photos that hold a location are flagged with a warning, so you can see which ones matter.
Press Remove location & metadata. Each row changes to “Cleaned” and shows the new file size.
A single photo downloads on its own. With several, press Save on each row or Download all to fetch them one after another. Each copy ends in “-clean” and your originals are untouched.

When it helps

Selling from homeBefore attaching photos of an item shot in your living room to an email or a classifieds post, send the copy without coordinates so the file cannot point to your address.

Sharing photos of kidsWhen school or daycare event photos go out through a cloud link, keep the place and time they were taken from traveling with them.

Sending work photosHand site or product shots to a client without the device model and editing-software history baked into the files.

Auditing your phoneDrop in one everyday photo just to see whether your camera app is tagging locations. You can stop there without removing anything.

Common snags

My iPhone photos are “skipped — unsupported format”.This tool accepts JPG, PNG and WebP only. Convert HEIC photos with HEIC to JPG first, then add them here to confirm nothing is left.

The file size changed after cleaning.The image is saved as a new file. JPGs are re-encoded at 95% quality and may end up slightly smaller or larger; WebP files become lossless PNG and usually grow. If you also need a smaller file, run the clean copy through Compress Images.

It says “Metadata unreadable in this format”.That only means the fields could not be listed. Cleaning still works, because only the pixels are carried into the new file, so whatever could not be read is not carried either.

Colors look very slightly different.The ICC color profile is removed along with everything else. Photos shot in a wide color space can shift a touch in saturation. Keep the original for anything color-critical and share the copy.

Tip Leave the originals in your photo library and keep the “-clean” copies in a separate sharing folder, so you keep date sorting and still protect your location.

Remove EXIF Data FAQ

Should I check photos before selling things online?

Yes. A photo taken at home can carry GPS coordinates that reveal where you live. Big platforms like Facebook or Instagram strip metadata on upload, but anywhere the original file travels intact — email, cloud links, marketplace attachments, messaging apps sending "original quality" — the location data stays. Check and strip it here first.

What exactly gets removed?

Everything: GPS coordinates, capture date and time, camera and lens model, exposure settings, editing-software history — all EXIF/XMP metadata. Only the pixels are re-saved into a fresh file, so nothing else survives.

Does the image quality suffer?

JPGs are re-encoded at 95% quality — visually indistinguishable from the original. PNG and WebP are saved as lossless PNG. Note the color profile (ICC) is removed too, so wide-gamut photos may shift very slightly in color.

Will my gallery still sort by date?

The cleaned copy has no capture date, so gallery apps fall back to the file's creation date. Keep your originals and share only the cleaned copies.

What about iPhone HEIC photos?

Run them through HEIC to JPG first. That conversion already drops the metadata, but you can verify here to be sure.

Is it free? Are my photos safe?
