Protect Your Privacy: Strip GPS Data From Your Photos
Photos often embed EXIF metadata with GPS coordinates that can reveal where you were; you can view this data in Google Photos, Apple Photos, Windows, and macOS, and remove or wipe location data using built-in tools (e.g., Apple Photos) or dedicated apps such as ExifTool or ExifViewer.Pro. You can also stop saving location by denying camera location access on Android or iOS, though that may limit location-based search in photo apps. Some sites automatically strip location data when you upload images.
