Direct answer · remove exif metadata from multiple photos

How do I remove metadata from several photos?

Add the photos, inspect the detected metadata and process the batch locally. Kompixa re-encodes supported outputs and checks common metadata structures again before download.

Evidence on this page

The workflow shows before-and-after metadata status instead of relying only on a generic privacy claim.

Important limit

This is not a forensic guarantee; visible content, filenames, unsupported proprietary structures and non-image files remain separate risks.

Why use Kompixa?

No upload, account or watermark
Batch processing and predictable file names

How it works

Re-encode several photos locally to remove embedded EXIF and GPS metadata before sharing.

Common questions

Are my images uploaded?

No. Processing runs inside your browser and the original files are not sent to Kompixa.

Which formats work?

This first release supports JPEG, PNG and WebP. Browser support can vary.

What is this workflow optimized for?

Re-encode several photos locally to remove embedded EXIF and GPS metadata before sharing.

What the metadata-removal workflow actually does

Kompixa decodes each selected image and creates a new encoded file inside the browser. The new output does not reuse the original EXIF or GPS metadata container.

How to clean several photos

Select the photos you plan to share.
Choose JPEG or WebP output and an appropriate quality.
Keep dimensions high when metadata removal is the main goal.
Process the files and download the newly encoded copies.
Share the cleaned copies, not the originals.

Privacy limits to remember

Visible text, faces, landmarks and reflections remain in the pixels.
A revealing file name can still expose information, so use the rename pattern.
Keep originals backed up because re-encoding changes the file.
For high-risk use, verify an output with your operating system's file properties or a metadata inspection tool.

Important: metadata removal reduces hidden information; it does not anonymize the visible image.

Practical guide

What metadata removal protects—and what it cannot hide

Understand the difference between embedded metadata, visible information inside pixels and revealing file names before sharing photos.

Live before-and-after metadata verification

When files are selected, Kompixa inspects detectable metadata locally. After re-encoding, the output is inspected again and each result reports whether metadata was removed, absent in the source or still detectable.

Detected categories

EXIF, GPS pointers, XMP, ICC profiles, IPTC blocks and PNG text metadata are reported when found in supported containers.

Important limitation

The verifier scans common JPEG, PNG and WebP metadata structures. High-risk files should still be checked with a specialist metadata inspector before sharing.

Before-and-after privacy verification

Inspect common metadata, re-encode locally and inspect the output again

Kompixa does not only state that metadata is removed. It checks detectable container structures before processing and repeats the inspection on the new output file.

Structures checked

Common EXIF, GPS pointers, XMP, ICC, IPTC, orientation and PNG text structures are reported when detected in supported JPEG, PNG and WebP containers.

Output verification

Each result reports whether detectable metadata was removed, whether none was found in the source, whether metadata remains or whether verification is unavailable for that format.

What re-encoding cannot hide

Visible addresses, faces, screens and documents remain inside the pixels. Revealing file names and information shared elsewhere also remain privacy risks.

Practical, not forensic

The inspector targets common container structures. High-risk or regulated material should still be checked with a specialist forensic metadata tool before publication.
