Strip GPS coordinates, Apple device IDs, capture timestamps, and Live Photo motion data from iPhone HEIC images.
HEIC is the default format for iPhone photos and contains rich metadata: GPS coordinates with sub-meter accuracy, your iCloud account, the originating device serial, Live Photo audio, and burst-mode IDs. Anyone you share a HEIC with can read all of this in seconds.
Not necessarily — we scrub the HEIC container directly. If you also want format compatibility, try our HEIC to JPG converter at /heic-to-jpg.
Yes. Live Photo references and the embedded motion track are stripped along with the rest of the metadata.
The Vision framework labels (faces, scenes) embedded by iOS are removed. Recipients won't see what your phone tagged.
No. SafeRestore runs the HEIF parser locally in your browser.
Use SafeRestore Metadata Scrubber to handle this directly. The tool runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
