About Image Metadata Remover
Image Metadata Remover strips EXIF, IPTC and XMP blocks from a photo — including GPS coordinates, camera serial number and editing history — while leaving the pixels untouched.
It is the step to take before posting a photo publicly, because GPS data in a phone photo can reveal where it was taken.

Questions about Image Metadata Remover
Does it change image quality?
No. Pixels are copied; only metadata segments are dropped.
What about orientation?
EXIF orientation is baked into the pixels before stripping, so the photo will not appear rotated.
How much smaller does it get?
Usually a few kilobytes; thumbnails and GPS blocks are small but measurable.
Can metadata be recovered?
No. Once stripped it is gone from that copy — keep the original if you need the data.
