Sharing a photo should not mean sharing where you live, when you were there, or what device you used. Metadata Remover checks your photos for hidden location, time, and camera details, then saves or shares clean copies without that private data attached. A quick photo can carry more than the image itself. GPS coordinates, timestamps, camera model details, and other metadata can travel with a picture when you post it, text it, list something for sale, or send it to someone new. Metadata Remover takes that quiet privacy worry off your shoulders. See what is hiding - Choose a photo from your library and scan it before you share - Take a new photo and prepare a clean copy right away - View hidden location, time, and device details in plain language - See a map when GPS location data is found - Know when a photo is already clean Clean before you send - Save a clean duplicate without hidden metadata - Share a cleaned photo directly from the app - Use the iOS Share Sheet to clean photos from other apps - Keep the original by default, or replace it with Pro when full photo access is available Handle more photos with Pro - Clean multiple selected photos in one flow - Preview batch results before saving or sharing - Choose exactly which cleaned photos to export - Unlock unlimited clean exports after your free exports - One-time purchase. No subscription. Built for real life - People selling items online who do not want photos revealing home locations - Parents sharing school, sports, or family photos - Travelers posting pictures after a trip - Creators sending drafts, samples, or behind-the-scenes images - Anyone who wants to share the picture, not the private trail behind it Privacy-minded photo cleaning Metadata removal is performed on your device using iOS photo tools. Metadata Remover asks for access only when it needs to choose, save, share, or replace photos, and you stay in control of whether cleaned images are saved as new copies or replace the originals. Stop wondering what your photos are giving away. Check them, clean them, and share with more confidence. Download Metadata Remover and keep private photo details private.

About

Frame Timer

Features
Read full description

Frame Timer is a frame-accurate stopwatch built for testing NDI and other wireless or networked camera links. THE PROBLEM Wireless and IP-based video transmission (NDI, RF links, streaming encoders) can silently drop frames. A dropped frame is nearly impossible to spot by eye in normal footage — you need a reference clock that counts in frames, not milliseconds. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick your production's frame rate: 24p, 25p, 30p, 48p, 50p or 60p. 2. Point your camera at this screen and start recording through your NDI / wireless link as usual. 3. Start the timer and let it run. 4. Play back the recording frame-by-frame. If the frame count ever jumps or the ring skips a tick, you've found a dropped frame — and exactly when it happened. WHAT'S ON SCREEN • A large HH:MM:SS + frame-number readout, so you can read the exact frame off a paused recording. • A ring of tick marks — one per frame of your chosen rate. Each elapsed frame lights up and stays lit, filling the ring clockwise, then resets the instant a new second begins. • The count is driven by a monotonic system clock, not by how often the screen redraws, so a slow or dropped UI frame never throws off the number itself. • Start / Stop / Reset controls, and a layout that adapts cleanly between portrait and landscape so you can mount the device however fits your rig. WHO IT'S FOR Broadcast and live-production engineers, NDI camera operators, and anyone verifying a wireless or IP video link before it goes to air. PRIVACY Frame Timer does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. It has no network access, no analytics, and no third-party services — it's a simple on-device clock.
