How to use it

Add a photo

Drop the picture above or click to browse. Settings apply to every image in a batch, so a set shot in the same light can be corrected together.

Try a look first

Black and white, sepia, warm and cool give an instant result. Pick one, then leave the sliders alone unless you want to push it further.

Adjust the sliders

Brightness lifts or deepens the whole picture; contrast spreads the tones apart, making it punchier; saturation controls how strong the colours are — drop it to 0 for grey.

Watch the highlights

Pushing brightness and contrast up together is the quickest way to blow out a bright sky. Move one at a time.

Download

The edited picture is saved with "-edited" in its name, and the original stays untouched.

Common issues

The sky turned into a white blob

Brightness and contrast pushed too far clip the brightest areas. Pull both back towards 100 and add contrast in smaller steps.

Colours look unnatural

Heavy saturation turns skin tones orange quickly. Keep saturation changes modest for portraits and push it on landscapes and products instead.

The photo looks grey after a preset

The black-and-white and sepia looks strip colour on purpose. Choose "None", or raise saturation to bring colour back.

Two photos in a batch came out very different

The same settings are applied to each picture, and a dark shot responds differently from a bright one. Edit very different photos separately.

Frequently asked questions

What do the three sliders do?
Brightness moves the whole image lighter or darker. Contrast pushes dark tones darker and light tones lighter for more punch. Saturation controls colour strength, from grey at 0 to vivid at the top end.
Which preset should I start with?
Black and white for texture and shape, sepia for an old-photograph feel, warm for indoor or golden-hour shots, cool for clean, technical-looking images.
Can I combine a look with the sliders?
Yes. Pick a look, then fine-tune brightness, contrast or saturation on top of it.
Does this crop or straighten?
No — this tool changes tone and colour only. Use Crop Image to trim and Rotate Image to straighten.
Can I remove something from the picture?
No. There is no erase or clone tool here; nothing is added to or taken away from the content, only its tone and colour change.
Is my original file changed?
Never. A new file is produced and the original is left exactly as it was.
Can I edit a whole batch the same way?
Yes. Apply the settings to several pictures at once and each is saved separately, which suits photos taken under the same lighting.
Why did the file get larger?
Saving a JPEG as PNG, or raising quality, both increase size. Keep the format and quality you started with to avoid it.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The adjustments run entirely in your browser.
