Teile deine Fotos, nicht deine Privatsphäre. Fotos enthalten unsichtbare Metadaten: Standort, Kameramodell, Aufnahmedatum und mehr. Wer dein Bild bekommt, kann diese Daten auslesen. MeDaBlur entfernt sie — vollständig und ohne Qualitätsverlust. SO FUNKTIONIERT ES • In der Fotos-App auf „Teilen“ tippen • MeDaBlur wählen • Sieh, welche Metadaten im Bild stecken (optional ausblendbar) • „Bereinigen & teilen“ — fertig. Das bereinigte Bild geht an Mail, AirDrop, WhatsApp oder wo du möchtest. Du kannst MeDaBlur auch in der App nutzen: Bild auswählen, Metadaten prüfen, bereinigen und teilen. WAS WIRD ENTFERNT? • GPS-Standort und Höhe • Kameramodell, Hersteller, Objektiv • Aufnahme- und Änderungsdatum • Software- und Bearbeitungsinfos • Alle weiteren EXIF-, TIFF- und IPTC-Daten WAS BLEIBT? • Das Bild selbst — pixelgenau, keine Kompression, keine Qualitätsverluste. JPEG, HEIC und PNG werden unterstützt. DATENSCHUTZ • Alles läuft auf deinem Gerät. Keine Server, kein Tracking, keine Werbung. • Das Original wird nie verändert — nur eine bereinigte Kopie wird geteilt. • Einmal kaufen, dauerhaft nutzen. Kein Abo.

Verdict

The call
