This tool is for privacy and cleanup. It keeps the original image format and strips common embedded metadata by default.
What EXIF can contain
Photo metadata may include camera model, capture settings, timestamps, orientation and—when a device recorded it—location information. The exact fields vary by file and camera.
The visible image remains
ImageCarpenter decodes the image, normalizes its visible orientation and writes a new file in the same format without deliberately carrying the source metadata forward.
Useful before public sharing
Removing embedded metadata can reduce the amount of background information attached to a photo before it is posted publicly or sent to someone else.
Questions about remove exif data from an image
Does removing EXIF blur or redact the photo?
No. It targets embedded metadata, not visible objects, text or faces in the image.
Will the image stay the same format?
Yes. The metadata-removal tool keeps JPG as JPG, PNG as PNG and WebP as WebP.
