ANNOTATE

Mark up an image with text, arrows, labeled arrows, and shapes. Pick a color, add a shadow to make it pop, then export. Nothing leaves your browser.

In short

Image Annotate lets you draw text, arrows, labeled arrows, rectangles, ellipses, and lines on top of a JPG, PNG, or WebP image, and change each mark's color, stroke, fill, font size, and drop shadow afterwards. You download the marked-up image as PNG, JPG, or WebP. The image is opened and drawn in your browser tab and never uploaded.

Nothing uploaded — the image is read straight into your browser tab.

Questions

Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. The image and every annotation are drawn locally in your browser tab — nothing is sent to a server.
What's a labeled arrow?
Draw it like a regular arrow and a text box opens right at the starting point, so you can immediately label what you're pointing at.
Can I change the color and style after drawing something?
Yes. Select it with the select tool, then change color, shadow, stroke width, fill, or font size — the change applies live.
Why would I turn on shadows?
A drop shadow gives text and shapes contrast against busy or similarly-colored backgrounds, so annotations stay readable.
