Why strip EXIF before sharing

Your iPhone embeds GPS coordinates inside every photo by default. When you text a friend a photo of your kitchen, the file may include the exact latitude and longitude of your house. When you post a photo to a forum, the camera serial number and software version go with it.

Some social networks strip this data automatically before showing the photo to others — but not all. Slack does not. Discord does not. Email does not. If you upload to a personal website, none of this is removed unless you remove it yourself.

How this works

The HEIC is decoded to pixel data, then re-encoded as a fresh JPG (or PNG) from those pixels alone. No metadata box is created in the output. The result has zero EXIF.

Use the HEIC EXIF viewer to inspect the metadata before stripping it.
