Frequently asked questions
Will stripping EXIF remove GPS location? +
Yes for typical JPEG EXIF. Re-encoding through canvas produces a new image without the original EXIF APP1 segment, including GPS tags.
Are my photos uploaded? +
Never. Parsing and stripping happen with FileReader, typed arrays, and canvas in your browser only.
Does this work for PNG and WebP? +
You can load them and download a stripped JPEG. Classic EXIF is most common on JPEG; PNG/WebP may show little or no EXIF.
