How it works

• Choose a JPEG, PNG, or WebP.
• Read the result. Coordinates are the hidden map point. A place name is a city or street label stored in the file.
• If a location is there, download the copy. The original file on your computer is not changed.

The copy is the same picture with the hidden location taken out. A JPEG stays a JPEG. A PNG stays a PNG. A WebP stays a WebP. Pictures over 40 MB are refused.

What this will not do

• It does not read words that are visible in the picture, such as a house number on a door.
• It does not turn the coordinates into a street address, and it does not open a map.
• It does not identify a person or search for anyone.
• It does not upload the picture or keep a copy.

Questions

Where does the picture go?

It stays in this browser. Choosing a file does not send it to the server. Reloading the page clears it.

What counts as an address?

Phones usually store a map point, not a typed street address. Those coordinates are enough for a map to show the street. Some files also store a city or place name. Both are reported. The page that explains this is what the check reads.

Does the cleaned copy look different?

No. The pixels stay as they were. Only the hidden location data is removed.
