Frequently asked questions
Everything. GPS coordinates, camera make and model, lens info, date and time taken, EXIF tags, IPTC caption and copyright, XMP metadata, embedded thumbnails, ICC color profile, software/editor info, author and owner, editing history — the full tree. The image is re-encoded from pure pixel data, so metadata has no place to hide.
No. The entire process runs in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. The file is loaded into a canvas, drawn to pixels, and re-exported as a clean JPG or PNG. You can verify this in your browser's network tab — zero uploads during processing.
Two reasons: (1) all metadata bytes are gone (EXIF alone can be 30-200 KB), and (2) the canvas re-encode uses a standard JPEG quality of 92%, which may be slightly more efficient than your camera's original encoder. Some images — especially PNGs with lots of colors — can occasionally come out slightly larger due to different compression strategies.
For JPGs, the re-encode uses 92% quality which is visually lossless for nearly all photos. For PNGs, the re-encode is lossless by definition. If pixel-perfect output is critical (e.g. medical imaging, forensic work), use a dedicated tool that writes a clean container without re-encoding.
Yes. Drag and drop multiple files, or select several in the file picker. Each image is processed independently in parallel, and you can download them individually or all at once.
Only if your browser can decode them. Most browsers support JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF natively. HEIC is supported on Safari (macOS/iOS) but not reliably on Chrome/Firefox. For RAW files, convert to JPG first with a dedicated tool.
