Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Everything you need to know about metadata privacy and file cleaning.

What specific metadata does ExifX remove? ?

ExifX removes common metadata blocks including EXIF, IPTC, and XMP. This commonly includes:

GPS Coordinates: Latitude, longitude, altitude, and heading.
Device Info: Camera make/model, serial numbers, and lens data.
Author Data: Copyright, creator names, and owner information in PDFs/Docs.
Software History: Edits made in Photoshop, Lightroom, or other editors.
File Properties: Creation/modification fields and common document metadata.

What is EXIF data and why is it dangerous? ?

EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) is a standard for storing hidden information inside image files. While useful for photographers, it can be a privacy risk. It often reveals exactly where you live (Geo-tagging), the exact time the photo was taken, and unique device identifiers that can link a photo back to you.

Which file formats do you support? ?

ExifX supports common sharing formats used across photo and document workflows.

Images: JPG, PNG, HEIC/HEIF, WebP.
Documents: PDF, DOC/DOCX, XLS/XLSX.
Video: MP4, MOV, AVI (supported workflows).

Will cleaning metadata reduce my image or video quality? ?

ExifX is designed to remove metadata without changing visible file content in supported workflows.

Can I bulk remove metadata from multiple files? ?

Yes. Our premium Monthly and Yearly plans support Batch Processing. You can upload huge queues of images, videos, or PDFs and clean them all simultaneously with priority processing speeds.

How long do you keep my files? ?

Files are processed temporarily and cleaned outputs are deleted after download or automated cleanup. ExifX is not designed as a file archive.

Does this work on iPhone or Android? ?

Yes. ExifX runs entirely in your web browser. You can scrub metadata from photos taken on your iPhone (HEIC/JPG) or Android device directly from your mobile browser before sharing them on social media.
