What Hidden Data Is in Your Photos?
When you capture a photo with your iPhone, Android phone, or digital camera, the device automatically records non-visual information called EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data directly inside the file:
GPS Location & Altitude
Exact latitude and longitude coordinates showing the physical location where you took the photo, accurate to within a few meters.
Device & Camera Hardware
The exact phone model, lens type, firmware version, and device serial number that can be used to fingerprint your identity across uploads.
Timestamps & Authors
The exact millisecond the photo was created, software editing history (e.g. Photoshop/Lightroom), and author name fields in PDFs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is my file uploaded to your server to strip metadata?▼
Never. Unlike other online tools that require you to upload your personal photos to their servers, SnapSend operates 100% locally in your browser using client-side Web APIs. You can even disconnect your internet and use this tool completely offline.
Why should I strip metadata before posting or sharing?▼
Posting un-scrubbed photos on classifieds (Craigslist, Marketplace, forums) or sharing via messaging apps can unintentionally reveal your home address, daily routines, and device information to strangers or scrapers.
Can I send the clean file securely after scrubbing?▼
Yes! Once your file is scrubbed, you can click "Send with 1-Time Link" to send it as an end-to-end encrypted, self-destructing SnapSend link that automatically deletes after the recipient downloads it.
Want to share passwords or files securely?
SnapSend encrypts your secrets in your browser and deletes them the moment they are read. No account required.
