Important
Check the result before relying on it
Keep an untouched copy of important source files. Browser processing depends on available device memory, and you should inspect every downloaded result before deleting the original.
Practical details
What this Lucaden tool does
Canvas decodes only the visible pixels and exports a fresh file, which normally removes EXIF, GPS, camera, and other source metadata. The tool reports the output format and size for review.
The transformation happens in browser memory and produces a new result without changing the source on your device.

Questions
About this tool
Does this guarantee every hidden value is gone?
It creates a new canvas image without copying metadata, but verify sensitive workflows with a dedicated forensic tool.
Will image quality change?
Lossy JPG and WebP output can change quality; PNG uses lossless pixel encoding.
