FAQ

Does Social Media remove Exif?
Most platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) strip Exif data upon upload to save space and protect privacy. However, direct file transfers (Email, AirDrop, Original Image in Chat) usually keep it.
Do Screenshots contain Exif?
Generally no. Screenshots capture pixel data and usually do not inherit the original photo's metadata.
Is my photo uploaded?
No. This tool runs 100% in your browser. Your images never leave your device.
Why is GPS missing?
Either location services were off when taking the photo, or the image was already stripped of metadata (e.g., downloaded from Facebook).
Supported formats?
Primarily JPG/JPEG, which is the standard container for Exif data.
Can I edit data?
This tool is for Viewing and Removal (Cleaning) only. We do not support spoofing or editing specific tags.
Does removal affect quality?
The "Remove & Download" feature re-saves the image (similar to Save As), which might introduce negligible re-compression, but visual quality should remain identical.
