Description

A photo privacy app that quickly and easily removes location (GPS) and date info from your photos!

  • Remove Only What You Choose

Pick what to erase - Location (GPS), Date, or both. Anything you don't select stays exactly as it is.

  • Clears Hidden Location Data Too

Beyond GPS coordinates, it also wipes the city and country names and the capture time stored separately in the photo's file metadata.

  • Same Quality, Same File Size

Only the metadata is removed - the photo is never re-compressed, so the original quality and file size stay intact.

  • Safe File Names
Read more

Photos are saved under a plain file name that reveals neither the date nor the app, so the info you removed doesn't leak through the name.

  • Detailed Photo Information

Check key details at a glance, including file name, resolution, file size, and creation date.

  • Separate Save & Instant Sharing

Your original photo stays untouched - the cleaned copy is saved separately and can be shared instantly from the app.
