Frequently asked questions

What metadata is removed?

EXIF (camera, dates, GPS location, serial numbers), XMP, IPTC, comments and embedded preview images. Colour profiles are kept so colours look the same.

Does removing metadata reduce quality?

No. The image data is copied byte for byte without re-compression; only the hidden information is removed.

Will my photos still display the right way up?

Yes. The rotation setting is kept, so photos from phones still appear upright.

Which formats are supported?

JPG, PNG and WebP. For other formats, use the Image Converter first - it never copies metadata to the new file.
