What this tool does

Photo editor is a simple way to improve a picture without installing an app. Pick a ready-made filter or adjust the light and colour yourself, add a caption or a frame, and save the result at full size.

Features

  • Eight filters: Original, Black & white, Sepia, Vintage, Vivid, Cool, Warm and Faded.
  • Adjustments: brightness, contrast, colour (saturation), warmth and vignette, each with its own slider.
  • Caption in nine positions, in any colour, with a soft shadow for readability.
  • Frame of any width and colour.
  • Live preview drawn by the same code that saves the photo.
  • Full resolution and the original format kept (GIF and BMP are saved as PNG).

Limits

  • One photo at a time.
  • Rotating and cropping are separate tools: Rotate image and Crop image.
  • There are no stickers or freehand drawing yet.
  • Animated GIFs are saved as a still image of the first frame, and EXIF data such as GPS location is not kept.

Frequently asked questions

Will editing lower the quality of my photo?

The edits are applied to the full-size photo, not to the small preview. PNG stays lossless, and JPG, WebP and AVIF are saved again at high quality (92%), which looks the same as the original.

What do warmth and vignette do?

Warmth shifts the colours towards orange (warmer, like evening light) or towards blue (cooler). A vignette gently darkens the corners, which draws the eye to the middle of the picture.

Can I undo a change?

Move a slider back to 0, pick "Original" in the filters, or press "Reset all" to start again. Your original file is never changed; the edited photo is saved as a new file.

Which fonts can I use for the caption?

The caption uses a bold, clean font that is installed on almost every device. A soft shadow behind the text keeps it readable on light and dark photos.
