Intensity: 40% — higher means stronger, more visible grain.
Honest note: each click creates a slightly different grain pattern, because the grain is random. Grain adds texture — it does not sharpen your photo or add detail, and it works best on photos; it is less useful on flat graphics or text screenshots. The grain is baked into the downloaded copy, so keep your original file. The result is saved as PNG, so transparent areas in your image stay transparent.

What film grain is good for
Film grain gives a clean digital photo the warm, textured feel of analog film. It is popular for portraits, street photography, and social media posts — and it can also hide small compression marks or a slightly soft focus by giving the eye texture to rest on.
Frequently asked questions
Is my image uploaded?
No. The grain is applied on your device, in your browser.
Will two clicks give the same result?
No — every click rolls a fresh random grain pattern, so each result is slightly different. If you like a result, download it right away.
Can I undo the film grain?
No — the grain is baked into the downloaded copy, so keep your original file. This tool never changes the file on your device; it only makes a new copy with grain for you to download.
