Remove EXIF from HEIC

HEIC is the default photo format on iPhones since iOS 11. It embeds the same EXIF fields as JPEG — GPS, camera model, lens, exposure — plus Apple-specific data like Live Photo references, depth maps, and portrait mode metadata. Our tool processes HEIC files directly without converting to JPEG first, preserving quality.

When you AirDrop or email HEIC photos from an iPhone, all metadata travels with the file. iCloud shared albums preserve metadata too. Strip HEIC files before sharing outside your trusted circle.
