How PhotoJam helps you remove a photo background
PhotoJam is a full photo editor that runs entirely in your browser. It combines layers, a crop tool, brush and shapes, enough to isolate the subject of a photo and replace or erase the background without installing any program.
Since every element (photo, shape, text) lives on its own layer, you can hide, reorder and adjust the opacity of each piece until you reach the result you want, without losing the undo/redo history.
Once you are done, export the final image as PNG, the ideal format for preserving transparency and fine detail around the cropped subject.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to sign up to remove a photo background?
No. Open the editor, import your image and start working immediately, no account and no paid plan.
Is my photo sent to any server?
No. All editing happens locally, in your browser. The file only leaves your computer when you export the final PNG.
Can I crop just part of the image?
Yes, use the crop tool to isolate the area you care about before or after treating the background.
