Image workflow

Share a photo safely

Photos can carry GPS coordinates, camera details, and identifiable faces. Before posting publicly, remove metadata, obscure sensitive regions, and export a smaller file.

When to use this workflow

  • You post photos from your phone and want to remove location data.
  • You need to obscure a face, license plate, or document in the background.
  • A forum or social app has a strict upload size limit.
  • You are sharing event photos with strangers in the frame.

Tips

Tips for better results

  • Run EXIF removal even if you already cropped—the original metadata may still be embedded until re-encoded.
  • Increase pixel block size until identifiers are unreadable.
  • Keep the original private if you may need an unedited copy later.
