Photo metadata viewer & remover
See the location, camera and hidden data inside a JPEG, PNG or WebP, then remove it without re-encoding the picture. It uploads nothing.
Most photos carry more than pixels: the camera and phone, the exact time, sometimes GPS coordinates, the editing app, and for AI pictures the prompt. Add a photo to read what it holds, then download a copy with that data taken out. The picture is copied as it is, so its quality does not change.
How it works
- Add one or more JPEG, PNG or WebP photos. A photo from a camera or phone shows the most.
- Read what each file reveals, including any location and any sign that AI made the picture.
- Download the clean copy. Keep the rotation and colour profile switches on unless you want them gone too.
What happens to your data
- Your photos are read and cleaned by your browser. They are not uploaded to Revault or anywhere else.
- The clean copy is the same picture with the hidden blocks cut out, not a new compression of it. Your original file is not changed.
- This page keeps nothing. Close or reload it and the photos and results are gone.
Limits to know about
- Removing metadata does not change what you can see. Faces, signs, documents, reflections and landmarks in the picture can still show who and where. It also does not remove what an app or website already knows about the upload.
- Only JPEG, PNG and WebP are read. HEIC and other formats are not supported, so use the image converter first. Missing AI markers prove nothing, because they are optional and easy to strip.
Frequently asked questions
Does removing metadata reduce the quality?
No. The compressed picture data is copied byte for byte and never decoded or compressed again. Only the extra blocks around it are left out, so the file usually gets a little smaller.
What is kept, and why?
Everything a viewer needs to show the picture: its size and compression tables, any transparency and animation, the colour profile (you can turn that off) and a small note about rotation so the photo stays upright. Camera, date, location, author, editing history, comments and AI settings are removed.
What are content credentials (C2PA)?
They are a signed record some cameras, editors and AI tools attach to say how a picture was made. This tool removes them with the rest of the metadata, so the copy no longer carries that proof. Keep the original if you may need to show where a picture came from.
