About Image Metadata Remover

Protect your privacy before publishing photos online. Strip hidden metadata, date taken, camera settings, and software information by re-encoding photos onto a clean canvas buffer.

This guarantees high processing speeds without network throttling, and ensures your data privacy is completely preserved.
