What is EXIF data? Location and time stamp? How do you remove that from photos and videos?

[–] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (2 children)

Exif data can contain everything from the make/model of device used to take a picture, to a gps location of where the picture was taken.

Removing that information depends on what you're using to do it, but can be done with an exif editing tool in pretty much any OS I'm aware of.

Edit: Autocorrect is a pita.

I'm on android, is there software that you would suggest using?

I don't know if there are apps that can't be trusted or take your images or data.

Exif-eraser, open source and available on F-Droid, Google Play, etc.
