Remove Photo Location Data (Geotags)
Remove geotags (GPS coordinates) from your photos to protect your privacy before sharing. Use our EXIF remover to wipe location info from images.
Location metadata is stored in EXIF as latitude/longitude, altitude, and compass headings. Use this page to remove photo location data before posting travel albums, property listings, or sensitive shots. The OneImage EXIF remover wipes geotags while preserving image quality and never uploads your files.

EXIF removal FAQ
Answering the most common questions about metadata, privacy, and HEIC support.
What is EXIF metadata in photos?
EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) metadata is hidden information stored in image files. It includes GPS location, camera make and model, date and time, and detailed camera settings — essentially a digital fingerprint of your photo.
How can I remove location data (geotags) from my photos?
Upload your photos to OneImage EXIF Remover and it will strip GPS coordinates, altitude, and map references automatically so no one can see where the image was captured. You can disable geotagging for new shots, but existing images still need an EXIF remover.
Can I remove EXIF metadata from HEIC (iPhone) images?
Yes. The tool supports HEIC files from iPhones and iPads, converts them to a high-quality JPEG behind the scenes, and deletes every EXIF and XMP tag so you can safely share the result.
Does removing EXIF data affect image quality or format?
No. Removing metadata cleans the data wrapper only — pixels, resolution, and colors stay the same, and file size may even drop slightly once the metadata is gone.
Do social networks remove metadata for me?
Some platforms partially strip EXIF data, but policies vary and older uploads may still expose GPS or camera info. For consistent privacy, remove metadata yourself before posting.
