Why should I remove EXIF data before sharing photos online?

Smartphones often record exact GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, and exact timestamps inside the image. Stripping metadata prevents strangers from discovering your home address or location.

Will removing metadata lower the image quality?

No. Our sanitization process repaints the pixels at 95% high quality, maintaining sharp visual clarity while removing all hidden data headers.
