How to remove the date from a photo on your computer
Many digital cameras and camera apps that come pre-installed on smartphones leave a date stamp on photos. On the one hand, this is very convenient, since you can find out the time the picture was taken without looking at its properties, but on the other hand, this text may be unnecessary for a particular user, so the need to erase it is very urgent.
Removing the date from a photo
There are not many programs that would do a good job of performing the task we are interested in, but there is still an optimal solution. In this article we will tell you how to remove a date from a photo, without Photoshop and similar heavy, expensive products, but with the help of Movavi Photo Editor. The program is paid, but the functionality of its trial version will be sufficient in our case. So let's get started.
Download Movavi Photo Editor from the official website https://www.movavi.ru/photo-editor/
- After downloading and installing the program, launch it and open the photo with the date. To do this, you can use the menu items "File" - "Open" or call the context menu by right-clicking on the image and select "To open with".
Click the button "Deleting objects" and select a tool "Brush" on the panel on the right. If necessary, you can adjust its size (line thickness).
“Sketch” the date on the photo as accurately as possible using the selected tool, and then click "Erase".
Tip: To simplify the task, you can use "Magic wand", located to the right of "Brushes".
The image processing procedure will begin, which will take very little time.
The date will be erased from the photo. Any other protective inscription or watermark can be removed from the image in exactly the same way.
Note: In some cases, an additional tool may be required "Stamp" - it perfectly removes remaining marks.
To save the processed image, expand the menu "File" and select the item "Save as…" or click on a similar button on the bottom panel.
In the dialog box that appears on the screen, specify your preferred file name and specify the folder to save it. Additionally, you can select the format, although changing it is not recommended, and erase location data, if any, is included in the photo. To complete the procedure, click “Save”.
After a few seconds, the image will be exported to your PC, and Movavi Photo Editor will notify you that the procedure was successful.
