A photo can reveal more than it shows

XMP can preserve editing history, descriptive fields, creator details, and workflow labels that are easy to overlook before publishing.

What this tool removes

The cleaner removes XMP stored in JPEG APP1 metadata, PNG text chunks, and WebP XMP chunks, along with other supported metadata.

Designed for sensitive photos

Reading, cleaning, verification, and export happen in your browser. Analytics events never include filenames, image bytes, coordinates, or metadata values.

Current format support

JPEG, PNG, and WebP are supported. Files with orientation metadata are visually normalized so they do not rotate after cleaning. HEIC and video are not accepted yet.

XMP Data removal questions

What is XMP Data?

It is hidden image metadata related to XMP packets from Adobe, Lightroom, Photoshop, and other image tools.

Does removing XMP Data change the image?

The tool removes supported XMP Data metadata blocks when possible. Images with orientation data may be normalized so they stay upright.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. The selected files are read and processed locally by your browser and are not sent to a Blur Face image-processing server.

How do I know the metadata is gone?

The tool scans the generated file again. An export is marked verified only when the supported removable metadata blocks are no longer detected.

Can I remove metadata from several photos?

Yes. You can inspect and clean up to 20 supported photos in one session, then export each verified copy.

Clean the visible layer too

After removing hidden metadata, blur faces, license plates, or private text before sharing.
