About this tool
Add realistic analog grain. Like real film, the grain is strongest in the midtones and softer in deep shadows and bright highlights, so it looks natural instead of like a flat layer of noise.
Choose the grain size and amount, and turn on color grain for the faint colored speckle of color film. Switch the preview to actual pixels to judge the grain at full size.

Questions and answers
Will the grain look the same in the download?
Yes. The grain pattern is generated from fixed positions in the image, so the preview and the saved file match. At actual pixels you see exactly what will be saved.
What grain size should I use?
For a typical phone photo, 1 to 2 pixels looks like fine film grain. Larger sizes resemble high-speed film or enlarged prints.
Is Film Grain free?
Yes. Every tool on ImgImage is free to use, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many files you process.

Does it work on my phone?
