Loading lossless client-side canvas engine with zero server telemetry.
Remove embedded GPS coordinates, device serial numbers, and camera timestamps from your pictures before sharing them publicly.
Modern smartphones are sophisticated telemetry devices. Every time you snap a picture, the camera sensor records not only light, but also data from the phone’s GPS chip, compass, and accelerometer. When you post or email that file, you are handing over a digital fingerprint with pinpoint physical coordinates.
| EXIF / XMP Tag Category | Typical Exposed Data | Privacy Severity | Scrubber Action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Geolocation (GPS) | Latitude, Longitude, Altitude, Compass Heading | Critical | 100% Erased |
| Temporal (Date & Time) | Original capture date, sub-second timestamp | High | 100% Erased |
| Device Identifiers | Camera serial number, phone IMEI, lens model | High | 100% Erased |
| Creator & Copyright | Device owner name, software versions | Moderate | 100% Erased |
Your photos are processed entirely on your local computer or phone. By redrawing pure raster pixels to a fresh canvas context, embedded EXIF, GPS, and camera tags are stripped in local device memory.
Zero image bytes are transmitted across the internet, protecting your home address and private location data.
Smartphone photos (iPhone and Android) embed extensive Exchangeable Image File (EXIF) metadata including exact GPS coordinates (latitude, longitude, altitude), date and timestamp, camera make and model, lens serial number, and software version.
Anyone who downloads your original photo can read the GPS tags and map your exact location—revealing your home address, workplace, school, or daily routine. Stalkers and data brokers routinely exploit this metadata.
Never. The scrubbing process takes place 100% in your browser’s local memory. Pure visual pixels are rendered to an isolated canvas without transferring header markers, ensuring total confidentiality.
No. The image resolution, pixel dimensions, colors, and sharpness remain 100% intact. Only non-visual metadata tags are discarded.
Some platforms like Twitter and Instagram strip EXIF on public posts, but messaging apps (like iMessage, Telegram, and WhatsApp when sent as uncompressed files), email attachments, Discord, and cloud drives transmit original metadata intact.
