About these tools
Eight tools live here, and they answer eight different questions. Shrink a photo's file size with the compressor, set exact pixel dimensions with resize, turn or flip a photo with rotate, hit a hard kilobyte limit with target size, preview a whole shoot with the contact sheet, remove either everything or only the location with the two privacy tools, and correct the date a photo was taken with the date editor. Everything runs in your browser.
The compressor, resize, target-size and contact-sheet tools write WebP, JPG or PNG, never HEIC. The only HEIC encoder available in a browser has no quality setting, so it cannot be told to produce a smaller file, and no resize or size-targeting tool can be built on it. The privacy tools, the rotate tool and the date editor are different: they edit metadata inside the original HEIC (the Exif and XMP blocks, or the rotation flag), so the result is still a HEIC with identical pixels, and for the privacy tools an identical length. The date editor keeps the length too, unless a photo has to gain date tags it did not have.
Because those four rebuild the picture from decoded pixels, they leave EXIF, GPS and XMP behind. The privacy tools and rotate do the opposite and leave the picture alone, so they cannot make a file smaller. If you want a smaller file with no location in it, the compressor does both at once, in a different format.
Choosing the right tool
File too big to send? Compressor
Converts to WebP, JPG or PNG with a quality slider and an optional longest-side cap, for up to 50 photos with a ZIP. Capping the dimensions saves the most.
Need an exact width or height? Resize
Scale by 10 to 200 percent, or type a width, a height or both. Output is JPG, WebP or PNG. Entering both stretches rather than crops.
Photo sideways or mirrored? Rotate
Turns or flips a HEIC by changing its rotation flag, not its pixels, so it stays a HEIC with identical image data. It cannot crop, because cropping needs a re-encode.
Hard limit like 200 KB? Target size
Searches JPG or WebP quality for the best file at or under your limit, one photo at a time, and says so when the limit cannot be reached without cutting dimensions.
Wrong date on a photo? Edit date
Rewrites the date taken, and the UTC offset if you choose one, inside the HEIC: set an exact time, shift a trip by hours or days, or give converted photos a date. Pixels stay identical and each file is verified.
Want to see a whole shoot at once? Contact sheet
Puts up to 50 photos on one grid image, each cropped to a square, with your columns, cell size, spacing and background.
Removing everything or choosing what goes? Remove metadata
Edits the HEIC in place with a privacy-safe preset, a remove-everything mode or a seven-item checklist, and verifies the result. Still a HEIC.
Only the location? Remove GPS
Takes out GPS and nothing else, in place, for up to 50 photos. Camera details, dates and serial numbers stay, so use the metadata tool before sharing with strangers.
