pdfAbout EXIF Stripper Batch
EXIF Stripper Batch is a free, in-browser image tool. Strip EXIF, IPTC and XMP metadata from many photos at once. GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers and capture timestamps are removed; pixel data stays untouched. The page exposes a small surface — input, controls, output — so a first-time visitor can complete the job without reading documentation.
If you fit any of these descriptions, EXIF Stripper Batch should slot cleanly into your workflow: designers preparing marketing assets; illustrators packaging artwork; developers preparing UI screenshots. The tool keeps the controls focused on what matters for each of these use cases.
EXIF Stripper Batch parses your file with standard browser APIs entirely inside the browser, applies the options you selected, and returns a download. The processing has no network step, which means a slow or intermittent connection does not slow down the work — once the page is loaded, only your CPU and RAM are involved.
Technically, the work is done by standard browser APIs, loaded as part of the page. Inputs in JPG, TIFF, and PNG format are recognised automatically and validated before the engine begins processing. Files up to 200 MB are supported per run; that ceiling keeps browser memory usage stable on a wide range of devices.
Most people land on EXIF Stripper Batch via a search at the moment they actually need the tool. That shapes the design: the page is a single screen with the input on one side, the controls in the middle, and the result on the other, so a first-time visitor can complete the job without reading documentation.
As a workflow component, EXIF Stripper Batch is the part you reach for when a single, well-defined image editing and conversion step needs to happen. It performs that step and returns a standard file you can carry into the next part of your pipeline.
The download is delivered as `exif-stripped-{date}.zip` the moment processing completes — no email link, no "your result will be ready in 5 minutes" queue, no expiry timer. The file is generated in your browser and saved by your browser's normal download flow.
A practical note on limits: EXIF Stripper Batch accepts inputs up to 200 MB per run, and you can queue several files at once when the workflow benefits from batching. If you ever bump into the ceiling, the cause is the size of the input.
Some notes on the design of EXIF Stripper Batch. The page is intentionally narrow: one input, the controls relevant to the task, and one output. Adding unrelated features would make the common case slower for the majority of users, so the surface is held to what people actually use.
Some context on why EXIF Stripper Batch exists in this form: modern File APIs, high-performance JavaScript engines, and well-maintained open-source libraries now make it possible to perform image editing and conversion work entirely in the browser. EXIF Stripper Batch is built on top of that capability, which is why a single page can host the full pipeline.
Pro tip: EXIF Stripper Batch works just as well in a private/incognito window as in a normal one, which is occasionally useful when you want zero browser-history footprint of the job. Another tip: if the tool ever feels slow, it is almost always because the browser tab is competing for CPU with another tab — pausing or closing the heavy ones gives the engine room to work.
For most failure modes, refreshing the page and re-running the job is enough — the engine has no persistent state to corrupt. If the same input fails twice in a row, the input itself is most likely the problem (a truncated file, an unexpected variant of the format, or a stream the engine does not recognise).
EXIF Stripper Batch produces deterministic output: the same input plus the same options always produces the same result. That predictability matters when the result has to match an upstream specification or be reproducible later.
Open the workspace above to start using EXIF Stripper Batch. The engine loads on the first interaction so the page itself stays light, and once the tool is warm it processes subsequent jobs quickly. The moment the page is interactive, the tool is ready to do real work on your file.
How it works
- 1Reach the EXIF Stripper Batch page in your browser to begin.
- 2Select the JPG, TIFF, and PNG files you want to process — drag-and-drop and the file picker both work.
- 3Tweak the controls if the defaults are not quite right for your input. The options are kept short and labelled in plain language.
- 4Trigger processing. standard browser APIs reads your input, applies the transformation, and writes the result back into the page.
- 5Download the result as `exif-stripped-{date}.zip`. The file is generated in your browser and saved through your normal download flow.
- 6Repeat the process for additional inputs whenever you need to. The page stays loaded, so subsequent runs are quick.

FAQ
What gets removed?
Every EXIF tag, IPTC keyword, XMP packet, MakerNote, GPS coordinate and embedded thumbnail. The output file contains only the pixel data plus a minimal "stripped" comment.
Does it change the image?
No. JPEG and TIFF metadata blocks live in dedicated APP segments separate from the pixel data; removing them is byte-level surgery that does not touch the image.
How many files at once?
200 MB combined input. There is no hard count limit — the processor handles them sequentially and bundles every output into a single ZIP.
Will my photos upload?
No. piexifjs handles JPEG metadata, libtiff handles TIFF, and PNG strips its tEXt chunks — all of it in your browser.
How is this different from EXIF Data Remover?
EXIF Data Remover handles a single file at a time. The batch version accepts dozens or hundreds of files in one drop and packages every output into one ZIP — useful before publishing a folder of photos online.
Does EXIF Stripper Batch work with screen readers?
EXIF Stripper Batch uses native HTML controls wherever possible, which means keyboard navigation, focus rings, and screen-reader labels work the way the platform expects. The drop zone accepts files via the keyboard-accessible file picker as well as drag-and-drop, and result downloads use standard browser download flows. If you spot an accessibility gap, Favtoo treats it as a bug worth fixing.
Is EXIF Stripper Batch licensed for business use?
EXIF Stripper Batch can be used for personal and commercial work alike — there is no separate "business" licence to purchase. The output you generate is yours to use however you want, including in client deliverables, internal documents, or commercial products. Favtoo's only ask is fair, individual use; the tool is not designed to be embedded as a backend service or wrapped behind an API for resale.
How accurate is EXIF Stripper Batch?
EXIF Stripper Batch is built on standard browser APIs, which is the same class of engine used by professional image editing and conversion pipelines. For deterministic operations, the output is byte-identical to what an equivalent CLI run would produce; for operations involving a codec or a model, the result is well within the range of what comparable tools generate. If you have a specific reference output you need to match, run a small test job first to confirm the configuration produces what you expect.
Does EXIF Stripper Batch work on a phone or tablet?
EXIF Stripper Batch runs in any modern mobile browser — Safari, Chrome, Firefox and the in-app browsers in most messaging apps all support the underlying APIs. Performance depends on the device: a recent phone handles typical inputs nearly as fast as a laptop, while older devices may take a few seconds longer near the 200 MB ceiling. The interface lays out cleanly on small screens, so you do not need to pinch-zoom to see the controls.
What should I do if EXIF Stripper Batch fails on my file?
Failures usually fall into one of three buckets: the input is in an unsupported format, the input is over the size cap, or the input is structurally malformed (a truncated download, a partial export, or a stream the engine does not recognise). The first two are easy to confirm — check that your file is one of JPG, TIFF, and PNG and that it is below 200 MB. For the third, opening the file in its native viewer first is the fastest way to confirm the source is intact.
Is EXIF Stripper Batch really free?
EXIF Stripper Batch is free to use. The processing runs in your browser, which keeps the per-user cost low enough that the tool can be offered openly. The download is the same file the engine produced — you can use it for as many runs as you need.
Will I notice a difference in the output from EXIF Stripper Batch?
EXIF Stripper Batch is built to preserve quality wherever the underlying image format allows it. Operations that are mathematically lossless (e.g. structural transformations, lossless re-encoding) round-trip with no perceptible change. Operations that involve a lossy codec inevitably introduce small artefacts at the byte level, but the defaults aim at the sweet spot where output looks or sounds the same to a normal viewer or listener while still being meaningfully smaller or faster than the input.
Does EXIF Stripper Batch require a browser extension or plug-in?
No installation is needed. EXIF Stripper Batch runs as a normal web page, with no browser extension, no native helper, and no separate desktop client to download. That is partly a privacy choice — extensions can request broad permissions, while a regular page is sandboxed by default — and partly a convenience one: you can use EXIF Stripper Batch on any computer you have temporary access to without leaving anything installed on it.
How fast is EXIF Stripper Batch?
Most jobs finish in seconds. Speed scales with input size and with how many CPU cycles your browser tab has available — the engine runs in your browser, so it shares resources with whatever else you have open. For inputs near the 200 MB ceiling, expect anywhere from a few seconds to roughly a minute on a typical laptop. Closing other heavy tabs noticeably speeds things up.
