How local HEIC decoding, EXIF stripping & ZIP bundling work

Apple devices store photos in the ISO Base Media File Format (.heic) compressed with HEVC (H.265) intra-frame coding. When you drop files here, heic2any (powered by libheif compiled to WebAssembly) decodes each HEVC tile into raw 8-bit RGBA pixels inside browser memory.

How EXIF stripping works: the raw pixel buffer is drawn onto an HTML5 <canvas> via ctx.drawImage and re-encoded with canvas.toBlob(mime, quality / 100), the browser only serializes the clean RGBA pixel grid — all original TIFF/EXIF headers, embedded GPS latitude/longitude tags, Apple MakerNotes, and device serial numbers are physically omitted by construction.

Stripped by canvas redraw (3 photos that contained GPS are now clean)

Privacy guarantee: canvas redraw leaves zero EXIF or GPS data

Every converted file is rasterized through an in-memory HTML5 Canvas buffer (0 bytes uploaded). Even if source HEIC photos contain home GPS coordinates or iPhone serial numbers, the exported JPG files contain pure pixels only.
