PRINTSNIP GUIDE
Edit a photo, keep your original
PrintSnip’s Photo editor brings the most-used edits together in one page with tabs: Blur background, Remove background, Image effects and the Advanced editor. Choose a photo once and switch tabs — the same photo carries over.

How to use it
- Open Photo editor and choose a photo from your gallery, files or camera.
- Blur background or Remove background: the person is found automatically on your device; touch up with the brush.
- Image effects: apply looks and adjust brightness, contrast and colour. Advanced editor: layers, text and drawing.
- Save, share, print or send the edited copy. For print layouts on paper, use the Photo studio.
Good to know
- JPEG and WebP exports use lossy compression. PNG uses lossless encoding, but edited pixels differ from the original.
- Enlarging a small photo cannot recover missing detail. Background separation may need correction around hair or complex edges.
- On iPhone, use the save/share menu and choose Save Image if available; otherwise download to Files. A browser cannot silently save into Photos.
Privacy and saving
Photo and document edits are processed on your device. Account information is stored on the server. Adding or removing PDF passwords and signing PDFs use temporary server processing, and files are deleted immediately. Print-shop orders use temporary encrypted storage. Read the Privacy Notice before sharing sensitive files.
Frequently asked questions
Does editing change my original?
The studio prepares edited output separately. Save an exported copy to keep your changes.
