Create a clean copy without common EXIF, GPS, camera, author or embedded copyright fields.
Digital photos may contain hidden metadata in addition to visible pixels. Depending on the camera, phone and editing software, this can include the device model, capture date, camera settings, GPS coordinates, author name, comments, copyright notices and other EXIF or application fields. The EKO24 Image Metadata Remover creates a newly encoded copy that does not carry common source metadata into the downloaded file.
Removing GPS and device details can improve privacy before sharing a personal photo. However, metadata can also contain useful attribution and licensing information. Cleaning a file may remove the embedded author name, copyright notice or usage terms. This tool does not determine ownership and should only be used on images you own or are allowed to modify. If you want visible attribution after cleaning, first add a name or logo with the Watermark Maker.
The tool redraws the visible image into a new browser canvas and exports a new file. JPG and WebP output may be recompressed according to the selected quality. PNG can preserve transparency but may create a larger file. The process runs on your device; the selected image is not uploaded to EKO24.NET.
No. A visible watermark is part of the image pixels and remains visible. The tool removes hidden metadata carried by the source file.
It may, but the final size mostly depends on dimensions, image content, output format and quality. Use the Image Compressor when size reduction is the main goal.
Not from the cleaned copy. Keep the original file in a safe place if you may need its capture, author or licensing details.
