EXIF Cleaner Remove location and metadata from photos, on your device

Every photo contains invisible extra data: where it was taken, accurate to a few metres, the date and time, the camera model and sometimes the owner's name. EXIF Cleaner shows you this data and removes it before you pass the photo on.

Use cases

Classified ads

A photo taken at home contains your address as GPS coordinates. EXIF Cleaner shows these coordinates and removes them before the picture goes into a listing.

Photos of children

Where and when a photo was taken is nobody's business in a group chat or a forum. You pass on a clean copy, and the original in your library stays unchanged.

Without loss of quality

JPEG images are not recompressed. HEIC and PNG keep their format and colour space. After cleaning, the app checks whether any personal data is left.

Frequently asked questions

Is the picture quality reduced?

No. A JPEG image is not recompressed. HEIC and PNG are written again without visible loss, in the same format and colour space.

Why does the original in my library still contain the location?

That is intentional. The app never changes an original. Share or save the clean copy, and delete the original in Photos if you wish.

I bought the upgrade, but it is locked again.

Tap “Restore purchase” on the purchase card in the app. A one-time purchase is tied to your Apple account and does not have to be paid for again.
