ExifEraser is a lightweight, permissionless Android app for stripping metadata from photos on the phone where you actually share them. It removes EXIF, XMP, ICC profiles and other embedded tags from JPEG, PNG and WebP images before they leave the device. There is no account, no network access and no clutter, you pick images or share them into the app and get clean copies back. It is open source under the MIT license and still receives regular updates. The trade-off is scope: it handles images only so pair it with a desktop tool for documents or video.
