Frequently Asked Questions About EXIF Removal

Android Photo Privacy

Android devices (Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, Xiaomi) embed detailed metadata in every shot: camera model, settings, date, and often precise GPS location.

Why Clean Your Android Photos?

Social media platforms usually strip this data, but sending photos via email, cloud links, or messaging apps often keeps it intact. This allows recipients to track your movements.

No App Installation Required

Don't install sketchy "Cleaner Apps" that ask for unnecessary permissions. MetaClean runs in your browser (Chrome, Firefox, Samsung Internet) and cleans your photos locally.
