A visible watermark discourages copying but doesn't stop it, because anyone can crop or edit it out. Your photos are processed in your browser and never uploaded. Saving the result also removes the hidden camera and location details from the file.

Frequently asked questions
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Your photos are processed in your browser and never uploaded.
Can I watermark many photos at once?
Yes, up to 40. The same watermark is applied to each one, and they download together as a ZIP.
How do I make the watermark less obvious?
Lower the opacity to around 40 to 60 percent, keep it small, and put it in a corner. Turn on the shadow so it still shows on busy areas.
Can I repeat it over the whole picture?
Yes. Choose Repeat across the photo, and rotate it a little to make it harder to clean up.
Will it stop people copying my photos?
It slows them down but can't stop them, because marks can be cropped or edited out. Share smaller versions of photos that matter.
