Remove Metadata From Screenshots

UntrimmedParasail opened this issue · 1 comments

I believe GrapheneOS patched so EXIF data like the local time is removed from screenshots, as described here.

As they mention the name shows the time anyway so there is no need to store it as metadata.

DivestOS currently does have metadata in screenshots (I assume inherited from lineageOS / stock AOSP), including date time and also the build number which is potentially bad to leak (although I doubt people would know what it means). If a patch could be included to fix this that would be great.

Although what would be even more ideal is GrapheneOS' exact approach where there is a toggle to turn it back on in the settings if someone wants to do so (but no idea why they would).

I'll seek to add this for the November update.
