What Is Photopea?

Photopea is an image editing program that's great for beginners or anyone who has never used an image editing app. They even have an app for your phone!

How does Photopea work?

There are two ways to use Photopea.

The first is selecting an image from your device and using basic editing tools like blur and sharpen, heal or clone, lighten or darken, etc. They have plenty of similar tools as well.

The second is to use one of their pre-existing templates and edit to add your own flare. They have hundreds to choose from, ranging from logo mockups to memes. Photopea's most popular templates are the ones made for social media like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.
