How to Use Photo Filters
Upload Your Image

Frequently Asked Questions
What image formats are supported?
You can upload JPG, PNG, WebP, and BMP images. For export, you can choose between JPEG, PNG, and WebP formats.
Are my photos uploaded to a server?
No. All image processing happens entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your photos never leave your device and are not stored or transmitted anywhere.
Can I combine a preset with manual adjustments?
Yes. Presets and manual adjustments work together. Select a preset first, then fine-tune with the adjustment sliders to create your own unique look.
How do I reset a single slider?
Double-click any slider to reset it to its default value. To reset everything at once, click the Reset All button in the toolbar.
What does the Intensity slider do?
The Intensity slider controls how strong the selected preset filter is applied:
- 100% — Full effect is visible
- 50% — Effect is blended halfway with the original
- 0% — Preset has no effect
Does the exported image keep full resolution?
Yes. Regardless of how the image appears on screen, the export always renders at the original full resolution with all filters and adjustments applied.
What is the difference between Warmth and Hue Rotate?
Warmth shifts the color temperature — positive values add warm yellow/red tones while negative values add cool blue tones.
Hue Rotate shifts all colors around the color wheel uniformly, changing every color in the image by the same amount.
