NoExif helps you remove sensitive metadata embedded in your images. Photos can contain hidden information such as GPS coordinates, capture dates, camera details, device information, software details, author information, and other. With NoExif, you can review detected metadata and create a cleaned copy before sharing your photo. Features: โข Select a photo from your library โข Review embedded metadata grouped by category โข Remove metadata with one tap โข Save a cleaned copy to your photo library โข Choose whether to keep or delete the original photo โข Process images privately on your device Your photos are processed locally: NoExif does not upload your images or extracted metadata to a server. Some harmless technical information may remain when required for proper image handling, such as dimensions, orientation, file type, or resolution information. Cleaned images are saved in the NoExif album so they are easy to find. Share your photos, not your metadata.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: NoExif at none against ExifGuard's shown. ExifGuard's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
