Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I remove EXIF data before sharing photos?
Smartphones and digital cameras automatically embed exact GPS coordinates of where photos were taken, your camera model, and time taken. Removing this data prevents location tracking.
Is metadata really removed or just hidden?
Imagic reconstructs the image purely from visual pixel data onto a fresh canvas, completely discarding all APP1, EXIF, and XMP metadata blocks from the resulting file.
Does stripping metadata reduce image quality?
No visible quality is lost. The image is saved at high fidelity (95% quality or lossless PNG) while stripping all non-image data.
