PicStrip

Strip photo metadata instantly

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Share photos without sharing your location or device details. PicStrip removes hidden metadata from your photos before you share them — no account required, no data leaves your device. Every photo taken on an iPhone contains invisible EXIF data: exact GPS coordinates, the time it was taken, your camera model, and more. PicStrip strips all of it in one tap. WHAT GETS REMOVED • GPS location — precise coordinates embedded in every photo • Timestamps — when the photo was taken, edited, and digitized • Device info — camera make, model, lens, and software version • Personal identifiers — author name, copyright, and serial numbers • Private camera analysis — Apple maker-note data where present PRIVACY BY DESIGN • Runs entirely on-device — nothing is uploaded anywhere • No account, no login, no tracking • Open source — the code is public and auditable • No ads, no in-app purchases, no subscriptions HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap to select a photo from your library 2. PicStrip scans for all embedded metadata 3. Review exactly what was found 4. Strip it — your clean photo saves to your library instantly SHARE EXTENSION Strip metadata directly from the share sheet in Photos, Safari, or any app — without ever opening PicStrip. SHORTCUTS & AUTOMATION PicStrip includes a Shortcuts action so you can build automated workflows: strip metadata on import, process photos in bulk, or integrate with your existing shortcuts.
