What Is Image Metadata?
Image metadata is information stored inside an image file that describes the image or how it was created. Depending on the file and device, metadata may include camera model, date and time, software information, orientation, and GPS location data.
Metadata can be useful for organizing photos, but you may not always want this information included when sharing an image.
Why Remove Image Metadata?
Removing metadata can help reduce unnecessary information from image files before uploading or sharing them. It can also create a cleaner file for websites, blogs, online listings, social media posts, and digital documents.
Keep in mind that metadata availability varies by image format and device. Removing metadata does not change the visible pixels of the image itself.
