Strip GPS location, capture timestamps and device tags from MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI and MKV files. The streams are copied rather than re-encoded, so the picture stays exactly as you filmed it — and nothing is uploaded, because it all runs in your browser.
MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI, MKV · up to 150 MB · 3 free files per month with an account
Removes creation dates, device and software tags, title/comment fields and every other metadata atom from the container.
Phone-recorded clips often carry the coordinates where you filmed. Those location atoms are deleted with everything else.
The video and audio streams are copied bit-for-bit (stream copy). Only the metadata is dropped — the picture is untouched.
Processing runs in your browser via WebAssembly. Your clip never reaches a server, so there is nothing for us to store.
Removes the GPS coordinates, capture timestamps and device model that phones embed in every recording.
Stream copy means no transcoding — file quality, resolution and frame rate stay exactly as they were.
Runs fully client-side in your browser, so sensitive footage never leaves your device.
Accepts MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI and MKV up to 150 MB and returns a clean MP4.
Open the Metadata Cleaner and switch to the Video tab, or use the button on this page to land there directly.
Drag in an MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI or MKV file up to 150 MB. It is loaded into your browser, not uploaded to a server.
The video engine copies the streams without re-encoding and drops every metadata atom from the container.
Save the cleaned file. Compare the before/after size to confirm the metadata is gone.
Video files carry more identifying detail than most people expect. These are the situations where removing it before sharing is worth the extra step.
Most platforms strip metadata on upload, but not all do, and re-shared or directly-sent files often keep it. Cleaning first means you are not relying on someone else's pipeline.
Clips attached to emails, tickets or cloud folders travel with their full metadata. Strip it before handing footage to clients, agencies or contractors.
Capture location and device fingerprints in source footage can identify who filmed it and where. Removing them is a basic step in protecting a source.
The same tool for images — strips EXIF, IPTC and XMP from JPG, PNG, WebP and HEIC.

Try converterNo. The cleaner uses stream copy — the video and audio are copied without being decoded and re-encoded, so resolution, bitrate and frame rate are identical to the original. Only the metadata is dropped.
All container-level metadata: creation and modification timestamps, GPS location atoms, device make and model, encoder and software tags, and title, artist and comment fields. The output carries no metadata from the source file.
You can upload MP4, MOV, WebM, AVI and MKV files up to 150 MB. The cleaned result is always delivered as an MP4 with faststart enabled so it begins playing before it is fully downloaded.
No. The video engine runs inside your browser via WebAssembly, so the file is processed locally on your own device. Nothing is transmitted to PhotoRadar, which also means large files are limited by your device's memory rather than an upload quota.
Major platforms usually strip metadata when they re-encode an upload, but behaviour differs per platform and per upload path, and files sent directly through messengers, email or cloud storage generally keep everything. Cleaning first removes the guesswork.
It includes 3 free video files per month with a free account. Paid plans remove the monthly cap across all PhotoRadar tools.
Drop in a video, get it back without metadata — same quality, nothing uploaded.
