Frequently asked questions

You can resize, crop, compress, convert, rotate, flip, adjust, and filter images. Use a focused tool for one task or the image editor to combine several edits.

The image tools on this website are free to use. You can choose an image, edit it, and download the result without creating an account.

No. Open the website in a modern browser and choose an image from your device. Processing happens in the browser.

Yes. You can select an image from your phone and use the tools in its browser. Large images may take longer or use more memory on mobile devices.

Choose Resize for pixel dimensions, Crop for framing, Compress for a file-size limit, or Convert for a different file format. Use the editor when you need several changes.

Yes. The editor combines supported edits in one session. If you use separate tools, download the result and open it in the next tool. Keep your original so you can start over.

Open Resize Image, choose your image, enter the width and height in pixels, select how it should fit, and download the result.

Resizing changes pixel dimensions. Cropping removes part of the picture to change its framing or aspect ratio. You may need both when preparing an image for a form or social post.

Making an image smaller usually keeps it useful, but resampling changes its pixels. Enlarging cannot recover detail missing from the original. Check the preview and avoid repeatedly saving in a lossy format.

Keep the original proportions, or choose Fit or Crop when setting a different shape. Stretch fills the requested dimensions by changing proportions and can distort the image.

Yes. The square tool has a Fit option that keeps the whole photo and adds space around it. Crop fills the square by trimming the edges.

Aspect ratio describes the relationship between width and height. For example, a square is 1:1. Different pixel sizes can share the same ratio.

Check the form’s required format, pixel dimensions, and file-size limit. Resize first, then compress if needed. Check the final file because strong compression may also reduce its dimensions.

Open Compress Image, choose the image, set a target file size, and download the result. The tool adjusts compression and can reduce pixel dimensions when needed to reach a small limit.

It can. JPEG and WebP compression may remove visual detail, especially with a small file-size target. Compare the preview and use a larger limit if the result looks too soft.

No. Dimensions measure width and height in pixels; file size measures storage in bytes, KB, or MB. Images with the same dimensions can have different file sizes.

Some limits are too small for the image’s detail or dimensions. Try a larger limit or smaller dimensions. The compressor reports when it cannot meet a target.

The target-size compressor exports JPEG or WebP. It can open PNG images, but it does not export PNG to a target file size. JPEG replaces transparent areas with a white background.

Resize first when the destination requires specific dimensions. Then compress the resized image if there is also a file-size limit, and inspect the final dimensions before uploading it.

The editor can open common formats that your browser can decode. Individual tools may accept a narrower set, shown beside their image selector. JPG, PNG, and WebP are the main supported export formats.

Open Convert Image, select a JPG, PNG, or WebP file, choose the output format, and convert it. Download the converted file once it is ready.

JPG is widely accepted for photographs. PNG is useful when you need transparent pixels or a lossless output. WebP can offer smaller files and transparency, but check that the destination accepts it.

Use PNG or supported WebP output. JPG does not support transparency, so transparent pixels need a background color. Check the chosen tool’s export options before downloading.

No. Changing the format cannot restore detail already lost through compression or a low-resolution source. Start from the best original available.

Your browser saves it using its download settings. On a computer, check Downloads or the browser’s download list. On a phone, check the browser downloads or Files app.

The tools create a separate download. They do not overwrite the image you selected. Keep the original file until you are happy with the exported result.

Images selected in the website’s browser tools are processed locally. The optional ChatGPT MCP connection is a separate server-backed workflow with different handling, explained in the privacy policy.

The browser tools do not send your selected image to an iLoveIMG image-processing server or provide account-based cloud storage. The separate ChatGPT MCP workflow stages transformed results temporarily.

No. Product analytics, when configured, are separate from image processing. Image files and image contents are not included as analytics event properties. See the privacy policy for details.

iLoveIMG is built and maintained by Sekora Studios, an independent software studio. You can learn more about the site and contact its maintainer through the About and Contact pages.

Email iloveimg@proton.me. Include the tool name, your browser and device, the steps that caused the problem, and any error message. You do not need to send a private photo to describe a problem.

Check the formats accepted by the tool. A file may be damaged, unsupported by the browser, or too large for the available memory. Try a smaller image or a JPG, PNG, or WebP copy.

Large pixel dimensions use substantial memory while decoding and editing. Close unused tabs, try a smaller source image, or use a device with more memory.

The output format, quality, dimensions, transparency, and browser encoding can affect the result. Compare the preview with the export, check your settings, and use the original when retrying.

WebP export depends on the browser’s encoder support. If the tool says your browser cannot create WebP, choose PNG or JPG where offered, or try a current browser.

A destination can enforce its own format, exact dimensions, byte limit, or photo rules. Check the downloaded file against all requirements. A successful edit does not guarantee acceptance by another site.
