A median filter removes speckles and grain while keeping edges sharper than a blur. Large photos are processed up to 4,000 px.

Choose a photo to reduce noise. Left side = original, right side = cleaned.

How to use the Image Noise Reduction

  1. Choose a noisy photo.
  2. Pick light or strong filtering and set the strength.
  3. Drag the split slider to compare, then download.

What does this tool do?

Digital noise appears when a camera boosts a weak signal — night shots, indoor photos and old scans. A median filter replaces each pixel with the middle value of its neighbours, which removes isolated specks while keeping edges much crisper than a blur does.

Use the strength slider to blend the result with the original: lower values keep texture, higher values give a smoother image. Your images are processed on your own device and never uploaded.

Why use it?

  • Edge-preserving filter.
  • Split before/after view.
  • Adjustable strength.

Accuracy and limits

  • Heavy filtering softens fine detail such as hair and fabric. Strong AI denoisers can do better on very noisy images.
