Remove KML Styles Online

An inherited KML uses inconsistent icons and colors, and you want the receiving application to apply its defaults.

How to use this tool

1. Choose the KML files.
2. Run style removal.
3. Download and open the output to apply your own styling.

Limits and checks before sharing

Removes inline and shared styles and references. External icon files are not deleted from your device.
Geometry, ExtendedData, names and descriptions remain. Other display elements, overlays and application extensions are not stripped.

If processing fails, check the file extension and source contents. Use a smaller batch if memory runs low. The original files are never overwritten. Inspect known locations and attributes before sharing a result.

Frequently asked questions

Will feature attributes or coordinates change?

No. The tool removes KML styling elements and style references, and serializes the remaining XML. It does not convert geometry.

Are my files uploaded, and do I need an account?

No. This file operation runs in your browser and needs no account or payment. The page and processing libraries need an initial network load. Opening a map preview can request external map tiles; linked resources in your original KML are not fetched or embedded by this tool.
