The EXIF & Metadata Scrubber inspects and removes hidden metadata tags embedded within digital photos. Smartphones and modern cameras automatically embed exact latitude/longitude GPS coordinates, device serial numbers, timestamps, and camera settings into image headers.

By stripping EXIF and IPTC metadata chunks directly in local browser memory before posting photos to social media or forums, you safeguard your personal privacy and prevent home location tracking with zero cloud data exposure.
