How It Works
Processing location depends on the selected tool and mode. Browser-based tools process files locally; advanced image processing may send the selected file to the ZeroMeta processing endpoint. Files are not intended to be stored permanently.
Drop Your Photos
Select JPG, PNG, WebP, or TIFF photos directly from your phone or desktop.
EXIF Header Stripping
ZeroMeta isolates and eliminates APP1 / eXIf blocks without modifying photo quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is EXIF data?
Exchangeable Image File Format (EXIF) is data automatically written into image files by digital cameras and smartphones. It records date, time, camera settings (aperture, ISO, shutter speed), phone serials, and exact GPS coordinates.
Does removing EXIF change the photo orientation?
No. ZeroMeta normalizes and bakes in the correct orientation so your photo displays upright everywhere without needing the EXIF orientation tag.
