Remove Color FAQ

Common questions about removing colors from images

How does the color removal tool work?

You pick a target color and set a tolerance level. The tool scans every pixel in your image and makes any pixel that is within the tolerance distance of the target color fully transparent.

What does the tolerance slider do?

The tolerance controls how closely a pixel must match the target color to be removed. A low tolerance (e.g., 10) removes only pixels very close to the exact color. A high tolerance (e.g., 100) removes a wider range of similar shades.

Can I remove a white background from an image?

Yes. Set the target color to white (#ffffff) and adjust the tolerance slider until the background is fully transparent while keeping your subject intact.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens directly in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images stay on your device and are never sent to any server.

What output format should I use for transparent images?

Use PNG or WebP. These formats support transparency (alpha channel). JPG does not support transparency and will show removed areas as white.

Can I remove color from images on my phone?

Yes, this tool works in any modern mobile browser. Upload your photo, pick the color to remove, adjust tolerance, and download the result.
