Quick answer

BatchSet's EXIF tool shows the hidden metadata in a photo — camera, lens, date, exposure and GPS location — and removes it before you share, free and entirely in your browser. Nothing is uploaded: the metadata is read and stripped on your device, and the cleaned photo stays correctly oriented.

Frequently asked questions

What is EXIF metadata?+

EXIF is hidden data cameras and phones embed in a photo — the camera and lens, date and time, exposure settings, and often the GPS coordinates where it was taken.

How do I remove GPS location from a photo?+

Upload the photo, open Remove metadata, and download the clean copy. The GPS coordinates and all other EXIF tags are stripped — and it happens in your browser, so the photo is never uploaded.

Is my photo uploaded to a server?+

No. Both viewing and removing metadata happen entirely in your browser, so your photo and its location data never leave your device.

Will removing metadata rotate my photo?+

No. BatchSet bakes the correct orientation into the pixels before stripping EXIF, so your cleaned photo stays upright — it won't come out sideways.

Why does my image show no metadata?+

Screenshots, downloaded images and most PNG/WebP files carry little or no EXIF. Camera and phone JPGs usually have the most, including GPS.

Does removing metadata reduce quality?+

The photo is re-saved at high quality with only the metadata removed. Any change is visually negligible, and the image content is unchanged.
