Metadata Cleaner：相片/影片
EXIF 檢視器：查看並清理相片中繼資料，包括位置、日期、相機。
你拍的每一張相片都帶有隱藏資訊：拍攝地點、時間、使用的手機，有時甚至還有原圖的一張小縮圖。一旦分享，這些資訊也會一併帶走。
Metadata Cleaner 讓你看到相片和影片裡到底有什麼，並在你的手機上輕點幾下就清理掉。
支援格式：JPEG、HEIC、PNG、WebP 和 GIF 相片；MP4、MOV 和 3GP 影片。更多格式正在規劃中。
兩個工具合一：EXIF viewer 讀取相片中繼資料（相片位置、GPS 座標、日期、相機），再一鍵清理。你的隱私只留在你的手機上。
Free Metadata Cleaner 的功能
隱私優先
相片在你的裝置上讀取和清理。不需帳號，沒有廣告，沒有資料分析。唯一的選用例外：如果你要求在地圖上查看某張相片的位置，App 會先徵求你的同意，然後從 OpenStreetMap 載入地圖。
全面徹底
EXIF、IPTC 和 XMP 資料，內嵌縮圖，相機廠商備註，以及某些編輯工具在裁切後的圖片後面留下的殘餘位元組。
一眼看出是否安全
綠色盾牌表示檔案已沒有中繼資料；帶裂痕的紅色盾牌表示仍有殘留。
由你決定
全部清理、只清理位置，或選擇特定類別。一次清理整批選取的檔案，然後保留或取代原始檔案。
畫質無損
圖片不會被重新編碼：影像本身原封不動。
免費，無廣告

Support the project
下方內容為英文，英文版為主。
Free Metadata Cleaner is a photo-privacy app that I develop and maintain on my own, in my spare time alongside my day job. It shows the hidden data inside your photos (where and when they were taken, which phone, even leftover bytes behind a crop) and removes it in one tap.
It is a local-first project: your photos never leave your device, and it even works in airplane mode. No account, no ads, and no tracking.
If you find the app useful, thank you for your support, whatever form it takes.

Free Metadata Cleaner shows and removes the metadata hidden in your photos and videos (location, date and time, camera and lens details, thumbnails…). The short version: everything happens on your device, and we collect nothing.
What the app accesses
Your photo and video library, only after you grant permission (and, where your system requires it, the permission to read the location stored in your photos, so that it can be shown to you). The files you choose are read and cleaned on your device; the cleaned copy is saved to your library. If you choose to replace the originals, the system asks you to confirm before deleting them.
To show which photos are already clean, the app reads the metadata of the photos displayed on screen, on your device. This result is kept in memory only and is never stored.
What we collect
Nothing. No account, no analytics or usage tracking, no advertising or advertising identifiers, no crash or diagnostics reporting beyond what the app stores provide, and no third-party SDK that sends data anywhere. There is no Free Metadata Cleaner server. Cleaning a photo or video never uses the network, at all: turn on airplane mode and clean one to check for yourself. The only network request the app can ever make is described under “Location” below, and it only ever happens if you ask for it.
Temporary files and history
The app keeps no history and no database. Temporary files created while cleaning are deleted after each item and purged when the app starts.
Deleted originals
Originals that are deleted remain in your system's trash (such as “Recently Deleted” or the trash) for about 30 days, with their metadata. The app cannot empty it: do it yourself if you need the originals gone at once.
iCloud and cloud photos
If a photo is stored in iCloud and not on your device, the operating system may download it before the app can process it. That transfer is made by the system, under the provider's own terms, not by the app.
Location
When a photo contains a location, the app shows the coordinates as text, which stays on your device. Two actions send that one photo's position off your device, only when you choose them, each time: “Open in…” hands the coordinates to the maps application you select, under its own privacy policy; “Show the map” asks you to confirm first (“Showing the map sends this photo's position to a map service. Nothing else is sent.”), then loads a small map from OpenStreetMap for that one position. OpenStreetMap receives the coordinates and, as with any web request, technical details like your IP address; it does not receive your name, an account, or anything else about you or your other photos. See OpenStreetMap's own privacy policy. Outside of these two explicit actions, the app never sends a photo's location, or anything else, anywhere.
Optional support
The app is free. If you wish, you can leave a tip. Tips are processed by the store or by a third-party payment page under their own terms and privacy policy; the app receives no payment or personal details, and nothing from the app is sent to them. A tip unlocks nothing.

Free Metadata Cleaner is a small independent app. Answers to the most common questions are below.
We do our best to reply within a few days. To help us, tell us your device model, its system version and what you were doing. Please do not send private photos.
What data does the app store or send?
None. It keeps no history, has no account and no server. Details in the privacy policy.
How do I clean a photo?
- Open the app and allow access to your library when asked.
- Select the photos or videos to clean.
- Choose what to remove, and whether the originals are replaced or a cleaned copy is created.
- Confirm. A summary shows what was removed and any file that could not be processed.
Where do the cleaned copies go?
To your photo library. The library date of the original is kept, so a cleaned photo does not jump to the top of your gallery.
I chose “replace originals” but the originals still exist.
Deleted originals stay in the system trash (such as “Recently Deleted” or the trash) for about 30 days, with their metadata. Empty the trash to remove them immediately. If you decline the system's deletion prompt, the originals are kept and the cleaned copies are still added.
Which files are supported?
Photos in JPEG, HEIC, AVIF, PNG, WebP and GIF, and videos in MP4, MOV and 3GP (more formats are being added). A file the app cannot clean is left untouched and listed in the summary with the reason, without stopping the rest of the batch.
Why does the app need access to my photos?
To list the photos you can choose from and to save the cleaned copies. Where your system requires it, the app also asks for the permission to read the location stored in photos: without it the system hides the location, so the app could not show you what a photo reveals. Nothing is uploaded.
How can I check that nothing leaves my phone?
Turn on airplane mode and clean a photo: it works the same. The only exception is the map: if you tap “Show the map” on a photo's location and confirm, that one position is sent to OpenStreetMap to display a map, and nothing else. See “Location” above.
Which languages are available?
English, French, German and Arabic.
Expense tracker and family budget planner. On your device, offline, no account.
