Privacy & Security
Q:Is my data safe?

Q:Do you store my files?

Tool Usage

A:Each tool supports specific formats optimized for its function. For example, image tools support JPG, PNG, WebP, and GIF; PDF tools support PDF documents; and text tools work with plain text and various code formats.
Q:What is the maximum file size?
A:File size limits vary by tool but are generally generous. Most image tools support files up to 50MB, and PDF tools support documents up to 100MB. Browser-based tools depend on your device's available memory.
