## Description

C2PACleaner removes the AI and privacy metadata hidden in your photos, videos, PDFs and audio — C2PA, EXIF, GPS, XMP and ID3 — and frees up storage by clearing duplicate and similar photos. All on your device, with nothing uploaded and no account.<br><br>NEW — FREE UP STORAGE<br>• Finds exact duplicates and similar photos: burst shots, retakes, near-identical frames<br>• The best photo of every group is kept automatically; the rest are pre-selected for one-tap cleanup<br>• Swipe clean — left to trash, right to keep. Tidy hundreds of photos in minutes<br>• Storage overview shows how much space you can free before you start<br>• Removed photos go to your system Trash and can be restored for 30 days (Android 11+)<br>• Favorites, edited and RAW photos are never suggested; motion photos are never pre-selected<br>• Scanning runs entirely on your phone — no photo or fingerprint ever leaves the device<br><br>WHAT IT CLEANS<br>• Photos (JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, AVIF) — strips EXIF, GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, XMP packets, IPTC/Photoshop records, and the C2PA Content Credentials that mark an image as AI-generated. Lossless: your pixels are untouched — HEIC included, the format most phones shoot by default.<br>• Videos (MP4, MOV) — removes location, recording timestamps, device tags, and embedded C2PA manifests, without re-encoding.<br>• Audio (MP3, WAV, M4A) — removes ID3 tags, artist and album names, embedded album art, and recording info. Your audio is never re-encoded.<br>• PDFs — removes the author, title, producer and XMP metadata blocks.<br>• Text — removes invisible &quot;AI watermark&quot; characters (zero-width spaces and similar) and normalizes the punctuation that often gives AI text away — while leaving emoji, flags, and Arabic, Persian and Indic scripts intact.<br><br>BUILT FOR BATCHES<br>Clean up to 100 photos, videos, audio files or PDFs at a time. A built-in music browser lets you pick several audio files at once. Cleaned files are saved straight into a C2PACleaner folder in your Downloads, or back to your gallery — no folder picking, no fuss.<br><br>SEE BEFORE YOU SHARE<br>Every file is scanned first and you see exactly what it carries — GPS, camera make and model, XMP, IPTC, ID3 tags, album art — before anything is removed. The read-only Photo Metadata Viewer shows the full EXIF, GPS and C2PA inside any image, for up to 10 photos at a time.<br><br>WHY IT MATTERS<br>Photos and videos quietly carry where they were taken, on what device, and whether AI was involved. Music and voice memos carry the software and account that made them. And every phone fills up with near-identical shots nobody meant to keep. C2PACleaner lets you see what&#39;s there, remove it in a tap, and get your space back.<br><br>PRIVATE BY DESIGN<br>• 100% on-device processing — no servers, no uploads.<br>• No login and no account, ever.<br>• Your cleaning history and photo index stay on your phone.<br>• Supported by ads. We show ads to keep the app free; we never send your files, file names, metadata values, photos or locations anywhere.<br><br>C2PACleaner does not add or forge credentials — it only removes metadata from files you already own, and only moves photos to the Trash that you confirm.<br><br>Privacy Policy<br>https://c2pacleaner.com/privacy/<br><br>Terms of Service<br>https://c2pacleaner.com/terms/
