How it works

WebP Metadata Remover in 4 steps

  1. Drop a WebP file onto the tool or click Choose File.

  2. Review the report of EXIF and XMP blocks found.

  3. The clean copy is produced automatically.

  4. Download it; your original stays untouched.

When to use it

WebP files can quietly carry the same baggage as JPGs: EXIF blocks with camera and location data, plus XMP with edit history - especially when exported from photo pipelines or AI tools. This tool reports what your WebP contains, then re-encodes it clean on your device.

  • Clean converted photos that carried EXIF into WebP.
  • Strip XMP edit history from exported web assets before publishing.
  • Sanitize AI-generated WebP images before sharing.

Format & quality notes

  • WebP stores metadata in EXIF and XMP chunks - the report shows the size of what it finds.
  • Transparency is preserved through the re-encode.
  • Like all our privacy tools, both the inspection and the cleaning run locally.
FAQ

Questions about the WebP Metadata Remover.

Do WebP files really contain metadata?

They can - the format supports EXIF and XMP chunks, and converters often copy them over from the source photo, GPS included.

Does cleaning change how the image looks?

No - pixels are re-encoded at high quality with transparency intact; only the metadata chunks are dropped.

Is my file uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser tab.
