Lossless photo EXIF, GPS, and metadata inspector and batch privacy cleaner

Photo EXIF Cleaner is a desktop photo metadata inspector, EXIF/GPS tag editor, and lossless privacy cleaner for JPEG, PNG, WebP, and TIFF images on Linux. An independent Linux desktop alternative to ExifTool GUI for inspecting and removing photo metadata, it parses JPEG marker segments and TIFF IFD/GPS directories directly to strip GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, timestamps, artist tags, XMP, IPTC, comments, and PNG text chunks without recompressing JPEG pixel scan data.

Key Features:

  • Lossless Batch Privacy Cleaner: Scans photos for GPS coordinates, camera make/model and serial tags, artist/owner fields, software strings, timestamps, and PNG tEXt/iTXt/zTXt chunks; removes JPEG APP1/APP13/COM segments losslessly while preserving exact entropy scan bytes.
  • EXIF & GPS Tag Inspector & Editor: Displays decoded ExifTags.TAGS and GPSTAGS tables with DMS-to-decimal latitude/longitude conversion, inline editing of standard tags, and writing or clearing GPS coordinates.
  • Folder Privacy Audit Summary: Aggregates GPS-exposed photo counts, camera models, timestamps, and metadata bytes stripped with visual charts and CSV/JSON export.

Disclaimer: This project is an independent open-source tool and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Phil Harvey or ExifTool.
