What it shows
- Location: GPS latitude, longitude and altitude, with a map link.
- Date and time: when it was taken and last edited, and the time zone.
- Device: phone or camera make and model, lens, and serial numbers when saved.
- People and notes: author, owner, copyright, captions and comments.
- Editing apps: XMP data and PNG text fields added by editors.
Why it matters
A photo of a parcel, a car or a living room can carry the exact spot it was taken, which is often where you live. The phone model and time can also link photos together. Read how to remove location from photos for each way of sharing.
Questions
Do photos really contain my location?
Often, yes. Phones can save GPS coordinates in every photo when location is on for the camera. The coordinates are usually precise enough to point to a building.
Don't social apps remove it anyway?
Many large platforms strip location data from photos they publish, but not every app does, and files sent by email, cloud links, file transfer or as documents usually keep everything. Checking takes a few seconds.
How do I remove the metadata?
Press Download without metadata: the picture is rebuilt from its pixels, so EXIF, GPS, XMP and text fields are left behind. Exporting from any Blur Document tool does the same.
Is my photo uploaded to check it?
No. The file is read in your browser tab, byte by byte, and never sent anywhere. The only outside link is the optional map, which opens OpenStreetMap with the coordinates if you click it.
