See the camera, timestamps and GPS information embedded in supported photos. Clean up to 50 JPG and PNG images at once without recompressing their image data, while keeping display orientation and color profiles. Switch to resizing or conversion in the same private workspace.

Build the social preview tags

Social platforms use the Open Graph tags on the linked page to create previews. Enter the page details and add the generated tags to that page's head.

Questions

What is image metadata?

Image metadata is information stored alongside the picture, such as camera settings, timestamps, software, author details or GPS coordinates. What is present depends on the device, settings and previous exports. Some apps remove these tags; inspect the file rather than assuming it contains or excludes location data.

Why does removing GPS data matter?

GPS tags can reveal where a photo was taken. Privacy cleanup removes those embedded location tags from supported JPG and PNG files. It does not hide addresses, faces or other information visible in the picture itself.

Does stripping metadata reduce image quality?

Privacy cleanup does not recompress the JPG or PNG image data. It removes personal metadata and preserves essential display orientation and color profiles. Resize and export modes create new rendered copies and may change image quality.

Do my files get uploaded anywhere?

Your image files are read and processed locally in your browser rather than uploaded. Optional conversion and ZIP libraries may load from the internet. Check the cleaned copy before sharing and keep an original when attribution matters.

Will removing metadata make my photo perform better on social media?

Removing metadata does not directly increase social reach. When sharing a webpage, its Open Graph tags can influence the title, description and preview image. Open the social preview tag builder inside the editor to prepare those tags.

What image size should I use for a social preview?

1200 × 630 is a useful starting size for a landscape link-preview image. The actual display varies by platform, page tags and device. You can export this size using the Web link-preview preset.

Can I clean video files here?

No. Pixel-preserving cleanup supports JPG and PNG still images. Export mode supports JPG, PNG, WebP and HEIC input. The social preview builder can include an Open Graph URL for an already-hosted video; it does not edit or upload video files.

Should I always remove copyright information?

Keep your original when attribution matters. Privacy cleanup removes author and copyright tags along with other personal metadata; it retains only essential display information such as orientation and color profiles.
