Hidden data, gone
Clear the metadata baked into your footage
Videos quietly record more than the picture — and this free tool strips it back out. Remove the GPS location from a video so it no longer shows where it was filmed, clear the recording device, the creation date and the embedded tags, and delete the metadata from MP4, MOV and M4V files without re-encoding. It runs entirely in your browser as an MP4 metadata cleaner, so you can remove video metadata online before sharing the clip.
- Removes location, device, date and tag metadata
- Bulk-clean many videos at once, then download them as a zip
- Quality untouched — no re-encoding, works with MP4, MOV & M4V
- 100% client-side — your video never leaves your device
Three quick steps
Clean your videos' metadata in seconds
Wiping the hidden information from your clips is fast, and the footage plays back exactly the same afterwards.
- 1
Drop in one clip or a whole batch of MP4, MOV and M4V files — they're read straight in your browser.
- 2
The location, device, date and tag metadata are wiped from every file, while the video and audio are left untouched.
- 3
Download the cleaned files individually, or grab the whole batch as a single zip.
Why bother
When stripping metadata matters
Hidden location and device data rides along with every clip you send — these are the times it's worth clearing first.
Removing the GPS location before posting a video filmed at home.
Stripping the device and software details from clips on a public profile.
Clearing recording dates and tags from footage shared with strangers.
The options
Browser stripping vs apps and upload sites
See how cleaning a video here compares with desktop metadata tools and the upload-based sites that need your footage first.

Good to know
Video metadata removal, explained
- How do I remove metadata from a video?
- Upload an MP4, MOV or M4V and the tool wipes the hidden metadata — including GPS location, recording device, dates and tags — then lets you download the cleaned video, which plays back exactly the same.
- Will cleaning the video reduce its quality?
- No. The metadata is removed from the file's container without re-encoding the video or audio, so playback quality is completely unchanged.
- Which video formats are supported?
- MP4, MOV and M4V files are supported — the MP4 family that most phones and cameras record in. Other containers such as WebM aren't supported yet.
- Can I clean several videos at once?
- Yes. Add as many MP4, MOV or M4V files as you like and each is cleaned automatically — then download them one by one or as a single zip.
- Is my video uploaded to a server?
- No. The metadata is stripped entirely in your browser, so your footage never leaves your device — even for large recordings.
Stays with you
Your footage isn't uploaded anywhere
Cleaning happens entirely in your browser, so the clip you're scrubbing — and the location and device data inside it — never reaches a server. Even large recordings stay on your own device.
- Nothing uploaded
- Works offline
- No sign-up, any device
Video Metadata Remover: free, private and browser-based
InkyTools is a free tool to remove video metadata online. Strip metadata from an MP4, remove the GPS location from a video, and delete the recording device, dates and tags — it doubles as an MP4 metadata cleaner and a video EXIF remover, and you can clear MP4 metadata online with nothing uploaded.
Because the metadata is wiped from the container without re-encoding, you can remove metadata from a MOV or MP4 with no loss of quality — the footage plays back exactly the same. Everything runs in your browser, so your clips never leave your device, and the location baked into them is gone before you share.
