Add adjustable grain to an image

Made for photographers and artists seeking subtle texture, a vintage atmosphere or a consistent finish across edited visuals.

Layer adjustable grain over an image to add texture, soften an overly clean digital look or create a deliberate analog mood throughout.

How to use

  1. Load a PNG, JPEG or WebP photo that weighs no more than 20 MB.
  2. Adjust the grain quantity with the control provided to set the texture level.
  3. Run the image process to apply the grain.
  4. Preview the result and download the new image if the look suits you.
  5. If the grain is too strong, erase the result and start again with a lower value.

Example

A photographer is preparing a portrait that looks too smooth after retouching. They import the file, raise the grain quantity slightly and process the image again. The result gains a more natural texture, useful for a print or a post that lacks material.

Limits and formats

Where processing happens

The image is read and modified directly in your browser. No file is sent outside and the output stays on your device.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add grain to just one part of the photo?

No, the tool processes the entire image according to the chosen setting. To limit grain to a specific area, you would need more advanced editing software with masks.

Does grain replace a complete film effect?

It adds texture, but it does not reproduce on its own the curves, halos or color shifts of film. It can serve as a starting point before other adjustments in an editor.

What should I do if the result looks too noisy?

Lower the grain quantity and run the process again from the original file. Avoid repeating passes, because each new output can degrade the details further.
