Frequently asked questions

What is a cross process effect?
It mimics developing film in the wrong chemistry: punchy contrast, boosted saturation, and color crossover in shadows and highlights.
How do I apply it here?
Select your file and the grade applies automatically, then use Intensity to temper the punch toward the original.
Will it work on portraits?
Yes, but expect stylized skin tones. It suits street, landscape, and fashion shots best, like real cross-processing.
What file formats can I export?
You can export as PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, BMP, or HEIC.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes — completely free, no account needed. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Downloads have no watermarks.
