About

Mr. Metadata Cleaner | Photos

Read full description

Don't let your photo snoop on you. A photo can carry more than the picture. For example, photos can show common GPS, camera, date, creator, EXIF, TIFF, and IPTC details. A separate cleaned copy before you share is a good consideration. SEE IT FIRST Choose a supported photo and review a plain-language list of the common hidden details found. CLEAN THE COPY Remove common privacy-sensitive metadata from a new output copy. The original stays exactly where it was. CHECK THE RESULT Compare the before-and-after finding counts and share the cleaned copy when you are ready. NO MYSTERY - Clear before-and-after report - Separate cleaned copy - Local processing - No account - Apple-managed membership - No ads PRIVACY Photos and metadata values are processed on your device. Optional anonymous product analytics starts off and never includes photo content, filenames, paths, locations, dates from the photo, or metadata values. No metadata cleaner can promise that a file contains no identifying information in every format or downstream service.

Take control of the hidden information inside your photos with GhostEXIF, a powerful privacy and metadata utility for iPhone. Photos can contain more than the image you see. They may include GPS coordinates, camera details, capture dates, software information, dimensions, and other metadata. GhostEXIF helps you inspect that information, remove what you do not want, and create a clean copy before saving or sharing. INSPECT PHOTO METADATA Open a photo and view its available metadata in a clear visual inspector. See dimensions, camera make and model, software, capture details, GPS coordinates, and raw metadata values. PROTECT YOUR LOCATION Use Purge GPS to remove location coordinates while keeping other supported metadata intact. Review the staged result before exporting it. WIPE PHOTO METADATA Use Wipe All to remove supported metadata and create a sanitized copy. Your original photo remains unchanged. UNDO STAGED CHANGES Privacy actions are staged before export. If you change your mind, use Undo Stage to return to the previous version. CLEAN PHOTOS IN BULK Select multiple photos and remove sensitive metadata from up to 50 files in one session. GhostEXIF provides progress information and a processing log for each item. RESIZE PHOTO RESOLUTION Choose a custom pixel width and height. Lock the original aspect ratio to avoid stretching, or unlock it when you need exact dimensions. TARGET A FILE SIZE Enter a maximum file size and GhostEXIF will create the highest quality JPEG it can produce within that limit. This is useful for uploads, forms, email attachments, and websites with file size restrictions. IDENTITY CONTROLS Professional mode lets you add supported artist and copyright information before export. Ghost Mode removes supported camera, software, artist, and copyright identity fields. VIEW RAW METADATA Explore the complete raw metadata structure when you need a deeper technical view of what a file contains. PRIVATE PHOTO PROCESSING Photo inspection and editing happen on your device. Your selected photos are not uploaded to a GhostEXIF server. Originals are never overwritten. You decide when a processed copy is saved or shared. PREMIUM MODE Unlock Premium with a one time App Store purchase to remove advertising. Restore your purchase at any time using the same Apple Account. GhostEXIF is designed for photographers, privacy conscious users, developers, researchers, journalists, social media users, and anyone who wants more control over the information attached to their photos.
