Hey Product Hunt!
I built ExifErase because every photo you take with your phone has invisible data baked into it — including your exact GPS coordinates. When you post that photo online, you're sharing your location with the world.
ExifErase shows you exactly what's hiding in your photo, then wipes it clean with one click. It runs entirely in your browser using the Canvas API, so your photos never leave your device.
No sign-up, no tracking, no uploads. Just drop, strip, and share safely.
Would love your feedback!

Love that the whole thing runs in the browser with zero uploads, that local-only approach is exactly what privacy tools should feel like. Clean execution on HEIC support too, most open source projects skip that.

Drag and drop feels great and the HEIC support is a lifesaver for my iPhone photos. One thing I'd love is a quick toggle to keep just the copyright or artist tag while stripping everything else, so I can still get credit when my photos get reused without exposing the location data.

Dragged a batch of iPhone photos in and the HEIC support actually worked without converting first, which saved me a step. The fact that everything stays in the browser is a nice bonus for sharing location-heavy shots.
