WEBP EXIF Remover
Strip camera data, GPS coordinates and timestamps from a whole batch at once, with JPEG cleaned byte by byte and everything else re-encoded cleanly.
How to Remove EXIF Data from WEBP
Drop in your images, choose whether to keep the original format, and download a clean batch that carries no embedded metadata whatsoever.
Step 1
Upload your images
Drop in one file or a whole folder. Photos, scans and camera originals are all accepted together.
Step 2
Pick an output format
Keep the original format or switch to WEBP, with a quality slider governing the re-encoded result.
Step 3
Download the clean batch
Each file reports how many fields were removed, and Download All collects them into one ZIP archive.
Why Stripping Hidden Metadata Matters Before You Publish WEBP Files
A photograph carries far more than its picture. Alongside the pixels, the file usually records the camera body and lens, the exposure settings, the exact moment the shutter opened, the software that last saved it, and often the precise coordinates of where it was taken. None of that is visible in a preview, all of it travels with the file, and most of it is completely irrelevant to anyone looking at the image on a web page.
The argument for stripping it is not abstract. Location coordinates attached to a phone photo can place a person at a specific address, which is why so many platforms quietly discard them on upload. A timestamp can contradict the story a caption is telling. An internal software tag or a serial number in the camera record is information a business has no reason to hand out. Removing the metadata costs nothing visually and removes a whole category of accidental disclosure.
There is a second, quieter benefit: weight. Metadata blocks are small but not free, and camera originals can carry several thumbnails, colour profiles and vendor extension blocks alongside the main photograph. Cleaning the file removes that overhead, which is most noticeable when you are publishing dozens of images and every kilobyte counts towards a page budget.
The way the cleaning happens depends on the format, and knowing which path applies tells you what to expect. When the source is JPEG and you keep the original format, the file is cleaned at the byte level: the metadata segments are removed while the compressed image data is left exactly as it was, so no re-compression occurs and the picture is genuinely untouched. That is the closest thing to a free lunch in image processing.
Every other case goes through a canvas re-encode, which includes any WEBP output. The image is decoded, drawn to a canvas and written out again at your chosen quality, and canvas output never carries EXIF, so the result is clean. The trade off is that the picture is re-compressed, so use the quality slider deliberately rather than leaving it low by accident. Keep Original preserves the source format for JPEG, PNG and WEBP; other inputs fall back to PNG.
This is a batch job by design. Load as many files as you like and each one is reported individually, showing how many metadata fields were removed and which groups they came from, so a file that never had any is labelled honestly rather than silently skipped. When everything is clean, Download All collects the whole set into a single ZIP archive. Nothing is uploaded anywhere, since decoding and re-encoding both happen in your browser.
Whole Batch at Once
Load as many images as you like and clean them together, rather than opening and saving each file by hand.
Lossless for JPEG
JPEG sources keeping their format are cleaned at the byte level, so the image data is never re-compressed.
Every Metadata Group
EXIF, ICC profile, XMP and comment blocks are removed, not just the visible camera fields.
Honest Result Report
Each file states how many fields were removed and from which groups, or says plainly that it had none.
Keep or Change Format
Keep Original preserves JPEG, PNG and WEBP sources, or switch to WEBP and set the quality yourself.
Local and Private
Decoding and re-encoding happen in your browser, so unpublished photographs never leave your device.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
The cleaning covers the main embedded groups: EXIF camera data, the ICC colour profile, XMP blocks and file comments. The pixel data of the picture itself is left exactly as it was.
For a JPEG source kept in its original format, yes: the metadata segments are stripped at the byte level and the compressed image data is never re-encoded, so quality is literally unchanged.
WEBP output goes through a canvas re-encode at the quality you choose, which produces a clean file with no metadata. The picture is re-compressed, so set the quality slider deliberately rather than accepting a low value.
Yes, Keep Original is the default and it preserves JPEG, PNG and WEBP sources. Files in any other format fall back to PNG, which is the safest format the browser can reliably write.
Each processed file reports how many metadata fields were removed and lists the groups they came from, and a file with nothing to remove is labelled as such rather than passing through silently.
Yes. Add as many images as you like in one go, then use Download All to collect every cleaned file into a single ZIP archive instead of saving them one at a time.
Yes. Coordinates stored in the file’s metadata are part of what gets removed, which is the main reason people clean photos taken on a phone before publishing them anywhere public.
No. The file is decoded, cleaned and re-encoded entirely inside your browser on your own device, so nothing is transferred or stored, and no account is needed to use the tool.
Yes. The pixel dimensions are unchanged by the cleaning process, since only the metadata blocks are removed and the image itself is written back at the same width and height.
No watermark is added, and no account is required. Very large batches are limited only by your own device memory, because every image is held and processed locally rather than on a server.
