CleanShare is a private batch metadata cleaner for images, videos, PDFs, and supported text files. Import one file or a batch from Photos or Files, review the hidden data CleanShare can detect, make clean copies, and share every verified clean copy in one handoff. CleanShare keeps the original findings visible after cleaning and shows what was cleared in each clean copy. Create a shareable batch privacy report that summarizes imported, flagged, cleaned, and cleared items. On iPhone and iPad, use the CleanShare share extension to send supported content into the private cleaning workflow from another app. Everything runs on your device. Files are not uploaded, accounts are not required, and no tracking SDK is included. CleanShare can help remove GPS location, camera details, EXIF fields, PDF author fields, document dates, and other embedded metadata where the file format exposes it. Text files can be redacted locally for common emails, phone numbers, IDs, card-like numbers, coordinates, IP addresses, and token-like strings. Audio and unknown file types can be inspected, but CleanShare only creates cleaned copies for supported formats. Use CleanShare before sending documents, receipts, screenshots, social posts, client files, marketplace photos, or any file where hidden details should not travel with the share.
