What metadata removed
Only location data is removed — every other EXIF field (camera, exposure, dates) survives.
| Field | What it reveals |
|---|---|
GPSLatitude / GPSLongitude | Your position, usually to within a few meters — enough to pick out a specific house on a map |
GPSAltitude | Elevation above sea level; combined with coordinates it can distinguish which floor of a building you were on |
GPSTimeStamp / GPSDateStamp | The exact UTC moment the fix was taken — proof of when you were there, independent of the camera clock |
GPSProcessingMethod | How the fix was obtained (GPS, cell towers, Wi-Fi) — a hint about your device and surroundings |
GPSImgDirection, GPSSpeed, and the rest of the GPS IFD | Which way the camera was pointing, how fast you were moving — every remaining entry is zeroed too, nothing is skipped |
| XMP GPS properties | A duplicate copy of coordinates that editing software writes into XMP; tools that only clear EXIF leave this behind |
Why remove AI metadata?
- Photography forums. Keep the EXIF that proves your settings; drop the coordinates.
- Marketplace and real-estate shots. Photos taken at home shouldn't say where home is.
- Kids' photos to relatives. Email and messengers' file mode keep GPS intact.
- Travel photos posted mid-trip. Advertising you're away, with coordinates.
- Insurance and documentation. Prove the damage, not your address.
Want everything gone, not just GPS? Use the full photo cleaner. Curious what's in there first? The viewer shows coordinates on a map.
Frequently asked questions
- Is the rest of my EXIF really kept?
- Yes. GPS fields are zeroed in place; camera model, exposure settings and capture dates are untouched — the file stays the same size.
- Where else can location hide?
- In XMP. This tool blanks GPS properties there too — both copies matter.
- Is it uploaded?
- No, processing is entirely in your browser.
- Which formats?
- JPEG, PNG and WebP — up to 20 files, 30 MB each.
- How precise is phone GPS in photos?
- Usually a few meters — enough to identify a building. See how to check yours.
