Tea Vui Huang's Photo Detagger



Unknown to many people, photos taken with camera phones have myraids of information stored in them. These information (or 'tags') can be used by the receivers / viewers of the photos (e.g. on Flickr or other photo-sharing websites) to index & profile the photographs and (indirectly) the photograhers themselves based on these embedded information (technically known as EXIF data). In newer phones these information can include GPS satellite locations, revealing both the exact time and place where the photos were taken.

With Tea Vui Huang's Photo Detagger on your mobile phone, you can now detag and wipe out all these tags from your photos before sending them out or posting it on the Internet! Previously, the only other way to do this on the phone was to use the phone's photo editor to alter and resave the file, reducing the quality of the photo in the process. Photo Detagger removes the tags without damaging the photos and in the process even reduces the size of the JPEG photos by about 3-5 KBytes as well.

For Nokia N82 users or other Nokia models that capture images to sub-folders like '\Images\200806\', you'll need to move the images to the root '\Images\' folder.

The detagged photos will be saved to the "Images" folder of the microSD card with a "-001" suffix. You can then send out the detagged photos via MMS or upload it as per normal to your preferred photo-sharing websites or blog. Photo Detagger is designed for Nokia phones minimally supporting CLDC 1.0, MIDP 2.0 and JSR 75. For enquires, please contact the author.
