  • Meme & deep-fried posts Get that over-compressed, noisy look without desktop software.

  • Playful “bad export” energy Match a deliberately crushed file look for jokes, moodboards, or social experiments.

FAQ

Does this low quality image maker upload my photos?

No. Effects run locally with the Canvas API. Nothing is sent to our servers for processing.

Is this also a deep fried meme maker?

Yes. Use the Deep Fry preset on the homepage, or open the dedicated deep fried meme maker for GIF-ready filters (contrast, sharpen, JPEG crush, burn tint).

Do I need to adjust every slider?

No. Presets are prefilled (homepage defaults to Meme). Upload and download, or switch Soft Lo-fi / Deep Fry / Tiny File in one tap.

What is the maximum file size?

Up to 50MB. Extremely large dimensions are softly capped so phones do not run out of memory.

Why would I want a low quality image?

Memes, deep-fried aesthetics, retro vibes, or matching a deliberately compressed look — not every edit needs to look sharper.

Is it free?

Yes. No account and no watermark from the tool itself.
