Handy for

Dull photos

Lift exposure and contrast on dark or flat pictures.

Colour casts

Use Warmth to correct blue or orange tints.

Black and white

Create a moody monochrome version.

Social posts

Give a set of photos a consistent look.

Good to know

  • Small adjustments look most natural; push sliders back if skin tones look odd.

  • Sharpen gently — too much creates halos around edges.

  • Reset all returns everything to zero.

Questions

Are my photos uploaded anywhere?

No. Every image is opened and processed inside your browser on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server, and closing the tab discards everything.

Is the preview the real result?

The preview is a smaller copy for speed; saving applies the same settings to the full-size photo.

Which image formats can I use?

JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF (first frame), BMP, TIFF, SVG and iPhone HEIC/HEIF photos. Photoshop PSD files work when they were saved with a flattened preview ("Maximize compatibility").
