How to remove a watermark from a photo for free
Upload your image above, select a brush size, then paint directly over the watermark. The tool uses a canvas-based inpainting technique — it samples surrounding pixel colors and blends them to fill the painted area. Works best on watermarks over uniform backgrounds (solid color, clear sky, gradients). For edge or corner watermarks over complex backgrounds, the image cropper may be more effective.
After removing the watermark, download the result as PNG. To reduce file size, run it through the image compressor.
Frequently asked questions
How do I remove a watermark from a photo online for free?▾
Upload your image, choose a brush size, then paint over the watermark. The tool fills in the painted area using surrounding pixel colors. Download the result as PNG when done.
Does this work on text watermarks?▾
Yes — text watermarks over simple backgrounds (white, solid color, clear sky, plain gradient) remove cleanly. Text over complex textures may leave visible artifacts.
Are my images uploaded to a server?▾
No. All processing happens in your browser using the HTML Canvas API. Your images never leave your device and are never stored on any server.
What brush size should I use?▾
Use a small brush (10–20px) for precise work on detailed areas. Use a larger brush (40–80px) for removing large text or logo watermarks over simple backgrounds.
Can I undo a mistake?▾
Yes — use the Undo button to step back through your paint strokes one at a time.
Can I remove a watermark from a corner of the photo?▾
Yes — corner watermarks on plain or gradient backgrounds remove cleanly. If the corner watermark is over a complex texture, try cropping it out instead. Use the image cropper to trim the corner containing the watermark.
How do I remove text from an image?▾
Paint directly over the text with a brush slightly wider than the characters. The tool samples surrounding pixels to fill in the area. Works best when the text sits over a simple background (solid color, sky, plain wall).
What formats does the output download as?▾
The result downloads as a PNG file, which preserves full quality without recompression. If you need a smaller JPG, use the compress image tool on the downloaded PNG.
What if the removal looks blurry or smeared?▾
Use a smaller brush and work in small sections. For watermarks over detailed textures (grass, fabric, skin), crop the image using the image cropper to remove the border watermark instead of painting.
