Frequently asked questions
Can a photo be traced to my camera?
Some cameras write a body serial number into EXIF, which can link photos taken with the same device.
Does this remove the date taken?
Yes, all metadata, including dates, is removed.
Will the image look different?
No. Only the hidden data changes; the picture is re-encoded at high quality.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. Files are decoded, processed and re-encoded by your browser using the canvas API and Web Workers. Nothing is sent to any server, and there is no account or storage. Closing the tab discards everything.
