Black and white photo
A black and white photo brings out shape, light, and expression. Choose the classic conversion, a red filter for dramatic skies, or pure black and white without grey, which suits documents, signatures, and printing. Contrast sets a softer or harder look.

Frequently asked questions
What does the red filter do?
It imitates a red lens filter: a blue sky gets darker and skin gets lighter and smoother.
When should I use pure black and white?
For documents, signatures, drawings, and stencils. Every pixel becomes black or white, and the threshold can be set automatically.
Can a black and white image get its colour back?
No, the colours are removed from the new image. The original stays on your device.
