Remove EXIF & GPS from iPhone Photos
iPhone photos record the exact location, device model, lens and timestamp of every shot. Remove that metadata so a shared image cannot reveal where you were or which phone you use.

How It Works
- 1
Drop an iPhone photo exported as JPEG, PNG or WebP into the workspace.
- 2
The parser decodes the Apple Make/Model tags, lens data, timestamps and GPS coordinates.
- 3
GPS, device and timestamp are pre-selected so the identifying fields are removed.
- 4
Clean and download a copy with no location or device data left.
Binary Format Breakdown
| Segment | Carries | Action |
|---|---|---|
| JPEG APP1 (EXIF) | Apple Make/Model, lens, ISO, timestamps, GPS | Selected tags removed, others kept |
| JPEG APP1 (XMP) | Apple Photos editing history and creator fields | Left untouched unless XMP categories are also selected |
| PNG eXIf | The same Apple EXIF block in a PNG chunk | Rewritten in place to drop selected tags |
Frequently Asked Questions
Do iPhone photos contain GPS?
Yes, when Location Services is enabled for the Camera app. The coordinates are written into the EXIF GPS IFD of every photo.
Does this work on HEIC files?
This tool cleans JPEG, PNG and WebP. Export or convert HEIC photos to JPEG first, then clean them here.
What Apple-specific data is removed?
The Make and Model tags, lens model, and the timestamps and GPS coordinates that identify where and when the photo was taken.
