Questions about this tool

Can I choose where the watermark appears?

Yes. Choose a corner, edge center, or the image center. Peelaway keeps a proportional margin so the text remains inside the output.

Can someone remove a visible watermark?

A visible watermark can discourage casual reuse and communicate ownership, but it is not tamper-proof. Cropping, retouching, or generative editing may remove it, so keep your original file and use other protections when the risk is high.

Are the image and watermark text uploaded?

No. The browser draws the text onto a local canvas and creates the output on this device. Peelaway does not receive the source image, output image, or watermark text.
