Remove GPS from a photo
Take the location out of a photo before you share it. The picture itself is not touched — no re-compression, no quality lost.
Runs in your browser. The photo is not uploaded — it never leaves this device.
Kept: the image itself, byte for byte, and the rest of its metadata — camera, lens, time, orientation.
How it works
The location lives in the GPS block of the photo's Exif data (and sometimes as GPS properties in XMP). This page finds that block inside the file and blanks it where it stands: its entries and their values are overwritten with zeros and it is left empty. Nothing is moved and the image data is not decoded, so the copy is the same size, looks exactly the same and keeps everything else the file says. It works on JPEG, HEIC/HEIF, PNG and WebP, and shows you what was removed.
Questions
Does removing GPS reduce the quality?
No. The picture is not decoded or re-saved; only the bytes of the location tags change.
Is anything else that could identify the place left?
The GPS tags are all removed. What the picture shows, and text you or an app put in the description or keywords (a town name, for example), stays — check those if they matter.
Do messengers remove the location anyway?
Many do when a photo is sent as a picture, but not when it is sent as a file, by e-mail or by AirDrop. Removing it yourself is the way to be sure.
