Clean output settings
This tool removes common metadata by redrawing the image and exporting a new file. It does not inspect or preserve original EXIF/IPTC/XMP fields, and it only supports image formats the browser can safely decode and re-encode.

FAQ
What metadata can this remove?
For supported image formats, browser re-encoding can remove common embedded metadata such as EXIF details.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Images are decoded and re-encoded locally in your browser.
Does this guarantee every metadata field is removed?
No. Browser support varies by format, so DevKitYard explains limitations instead of pretending every file can be fully sanitized.
Will the image quality change?
Re-encoding can affect quality or file size depending on the format and browser encoder.
