A Quick Note On Image Privacy
This tool completely removes the hidden digital label attached to your file (like your camera model, where the photo was taken, and your AI prompt secrets).
Good to know: Removing hidden metadata does not alter the actual drawing or photo pixels. If an AI image has visual characteristics (like hands with extra fingers or AI texture patterns), those are part of the picture itself and cannot be removed without ruining the image. We protect your privacy while keeping your pictures crisp and untouched!

How Our Tool Cleans GPS DATA FROM PHOTO
Smartphones and modern cameras automatically stamp latitude and longitude into photo headers. When posted on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, or discussion forums that preserve original files, your home address is exposed. Scrubbing GPS data eliminates this risk completely.
How GPS Coordinates are Stored in Image Headers
GPS coordinates are recorded in the GPS IFD (Image File Directory) within EXIF:
- →Tag 0x0002 (GPSLatitude) and Tag 0x0004 (GPSLongitude): Stored as rational degree/minute/second arrays.
- →Precision: 4 decimal places pinpoint an area of 11 meters; 6 decimal places pinpoint an exact doorstep.
- →7minti strips the entire GPS IFD pointer and data block, preventing reverse geocoding.
❌ What Gets Cleaned (Deleted)
- •GPS Latitude and Longitude coordinates
- •GPS Altitude, speed, and heading direction
- •GPS timestamp and satellite fix details
- •Embedded location geohash markers
✅ What Stays 100% Intact (Preserved)
- •100% original photo quality and resolution
- •Vibrant colors, contrast, and sharpness
- •Zero pixel compression or visual blur
When selling items on local classified websites, uploading raw photos taken in your living room or garage allows buyers to extract the exact street coordinates using free online tools. Stripping GPS data protects your physical safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
Unique answers specifically for GPS data from photo.
Can someone track me through a photo I sent?
Yes. If you send an uncompressed photo over email, AirDrop, or cloud storage, the recipient can inspect the EXIF data and see the exact GPS coordinates of where you took it.
Does WhatsApp or Instagram remove GPS data?
WhatsApp and Instagram automatically strip EXIF data when you post standard compressed photos. However, sending a photo as a 'Document' on WhatsApp or sharing via Google Drive / Dropbox preserves full GPS data.
