Frequently asked questions

What metadata does it remove?

Re-encoding the image strips EXIF data — including GPS location, camera make and model, and timestamps — along with any other embedded metadata.

Does it change how the image looks?

No — the pixels are unchanged. Only the hidden metadata is removed. JPEG is re-compressed, so file size may change slightly.

Is my photo uploaded?

No — everything happens in your browser, which is exactly why it's safe for private photos.
