Image editor
Three steps to a finished image
- 01Open an image
Pick a file, drop it onto the editor, or paste one from your clipboard. You can also start from a blank canvas.
- 02Edit it
Add layers, select an area, then crop, paint, clone, add text, or use the Adjustments and Filter menus. Every step is saved in the history so you can go back.
- 03Export
Save the result as PNG, JPG or WebP, or as a layered PSD. Everything runs on your device, so nothing is uploaded.
Free. No signup. No watermark. No ads. Nothing is uploaded: your images stay on your device.
Frequently asked
What can this image editor do?
It is a layered editor in the style of Photoshop and Photopea. You get rectangle, ellipse, lasso and magic wand selections, an AI Select Subject, crop, brush, pencil, eraser, paint bucket, gradient, clone stamp, blur, sharpen, smudge, dodge and burn, and text. Adjustments include brightness, contrast, levels, curves and hue, and filters include blur, sharpen and noise. There is a full undo history, and you can keep several images open in tabs. Everything respects your selection.
Does it have layers?
Yes. Every image is a stack of raster layers. Each layer has a name, a visibility toggle, opacity, one of 16 blend modes (Multiply, Screen, Overlay and more) and a lock-transparency switch. You can add, duplicate, delete, rename, reorder and merge layers, make a layer from a selection with Cmd or Ctrl+J, and flatten the stack. Text lives on its own editable layer until you rasterize it. Layer masks, layer effects and adjustment layers are not available yet.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is opened, edited and exported in your browser. There is no upload and no server that receives your pictures. The one network request tied to your edits is the optional Select Subject model download, which fetches the model files but sends nothing from your image.
Which file types and sizes can I open?
PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF (first frame), BMP and AVIF, anything your browser can decode, plus Photoshop PSD files. Images larger than 8192 pixels on the long side are scaled down when opened, and the editor tells you. You can export PNG, JPG, WebP or a layered PSD. Very large images can feel slow on older phones and laptops.
How well does it handle PSD files?
It opens PSDs with their raster layers, names, visibility, opacity, blend modes and positions. Groups are flattened into a plain layer list with the group name as a prefix. Text layers, smart objects and layer masks come in as pixels, with masks applied. Adjustment layers, layer effects such as drop shadows, clipping masks, vector masks and unusual blend modes are not supported, and the editor shows a note when a file uses them. Export as PSD writes your layer stack with names, opacity, blend modes and visibility, so it reopens in Photoshop or here. The PSD code is loaded only when you open or save a PSD.
What does Select > Subject download?
Select Subject uses an AI model that runs on your device. The first time you use it, the browser downloads the model and caches it. On a browser with WebGPU it is the BiRefNet lite model, about 115 MB. Without WebGPU it uses the smaller MODNet model, about 7 MB, which is less precise on hair and fine edges. The rest of the editor never needs a download.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes, in a recent Safari or Chrome. Touch works for painting and selecting, and you can pinch to zoom and drag with two fingers to pan. The tool strip sits at the bottom of the screen and the layers and history panels open from a button in the top bar. Precise work is easier on a laptop or tablet with a mouse or pen.
Is it really free, with no watermark?
Yes. There is no account, no watermark, no export limit and no paid tier, and the site shows no ads. It is a one-person project with an optional tip jar.
