How to Remove Facetune Info from a Photo on iPhone (Free)

Photo To Info Team · · 4 min read

Short answer: to remove Facetune info from a photo on iPhone, export the edited picture, then clean its metadata with a free tool such as Photo To Info. The cleaned copy no longer carries the editing-app name or other hidden tags. It takes under a minute, costs nothing and needs no login.

What is "Facetune info" in a photo?

When you edit and save a picture, the app can leave details inside the file. These details are called metadata (EXIF, XMP and similar tags). Depending on the app and how the file was saved, a photo edited in an app like Facetune may contain:

  • A Software tag that names the app or editor
  • The date and time of the original shot and of the edit
  • Device details such as the iPhone model
  • The GPS location from the original photo, if it was kept

Not every export contains all of these. The only way to know is to look at the file.

Step 1: Check what your photo contains

  1. Open Photo To Info in your iPhone browser. There is no sign-up.
  2. Tap to choose your edited photo (JPEG, PNG or WebP, up to 50 MB).
  3. Read the list of tags. Location fields are highlighted red and other sensitive fields, such as software, amber.

You can also tap the (i) button in the Photos app for a short summary. Our guide How to See and Remove Photo Info on iPhone shows how.

Step 2: Remove the Facetune and other photo info

  1. Add the photo (you can add many at once).
  2. Press Clean all.
  3. Download the clean copy. The new file is named like photo_clean.jpg.
  4. Use the clean copy when you post or send the picture.

The tool works inside your browser, so your photos are not uploaded. Your original file is not changed, and each cleaned file is scanned again to confirm that the tags are gone. Learn more on the How It Works page.

Step 3: Double-check the result

Drop the _clean file back into the viewer. It should show no software, camera or GPS tags. You can also check it in any other EXIF viewer.

Remove the location too

An edited photo often keeps the place where the original was taken. To stop new pictures from saving it, go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → Camera → Never. For one-time sharing, use Share → Options → turn Location off. See How to Hide Photo Info When Sending for more.

Metadata is not the same as a visible watermark

This is a common mix-up:

  • Photo info (metadata) is hidden data inside the file. A cleaner removes it.
  • A visible watermark or logo is drawn on the picture itself. A metadata cleaner does not remove it.

If an app adds a visible mark on its free version, the correct way to remove it is to use the paid version or export the picture without it. Photo To Info does not edit what is visible in the image.

What cannot be removed

  • Anything drawn on the picture, such as logos, text or faces
  • Data hidden inside the pixels, such as some invisible watermarks

JPEG files are re-saved when cleaned, so the size can change slightly and embedded colour profiles are dropped. The FAQ explains these limits openly.

Frequently asked questions

How do I remove Facetune info from a photo on iPhone?

Export the edited photo, open it in Photo To Info, press Clean all and download the clean copy.

Does the Photos app remove editing info?

Not completely. The Share → Options → Location switch hides the GPS position, but other tags can still be sent. A full cleaner is more reliable.

Will the photo look different after cleaning?

No. It looks the same to the eye. Only the hidden data and a few technical details change.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

It is free and there is no login requirement.

Does this work for other editing apps?

Yes. The tool removes metadata from any JPEG, PNG or WebP file, whichever app edited it.

Editing apps can leave hidden details in your pictures. Export the photo, clean it, check the result and share the clean copy. It is free and private because everything happens in your browser. Remove photo info now with Photo To Info.
