Changelog

Two new tools for upload forms, 33 tools out of preview, and the fixes that came from trying each one on real files.

Added

• Compress Image to KB: Shrink a photo to 20, 50, 100 or 200 kB for an exam, job or visa form. If a lower quality is not enough, it makes the picture smaller too.
• Compress PDF: Shrink a PDF to 100 kB, 200 kB, 500 kB or any size. A file that already fits comes back unchanged.

Changed

• 33 tools were tried on real files, one by one, and lost their preview badge. Search engines can now list them.
• Remove Background: The faint marks a cutout used to leave on a shaded background are cleared, and the subject is left as it was.
• Grey text on light backgrounds is a little darker, so it is easier to read.

Fixed

• PDF to Text: Every PDF opens again. From 21 September, none would.
• Converters: "1,5" means one and a half, not fifteen. Heights no longer read "5 ft 12.0 in", and weights no longer read "9 st 14.0 lb".
• Password Generator: Typing 16 in the length box gives 16, not 46. Long PINs show how strong they really are.
• Percentage Calculator: The worked example now says "take 20 off 100". A sum that would divide by zero says so.
• Lorem Ipsum Generator: Switching between words and paragraphs keeps the count you can see.
• Slug Generator: Long titles that repeat each get their own slug.
• UUID Generator: A batch of v7 IDs comes out in order.
• Case Converter: Title Case keeps "don't" in one piece.
• URL Decode: The part after a # is no longer read as part of the last value.
• Image to Base64: Quotes inside a CSS url() are escaped, so the snippet pastes cleanly.
• PDF Editor: Edits land where you put them, and a redaction blacks out the words in the saved file.
• JWT Decoder: The page no longer reports an error every time it opens.
• GIF to PNG, WebP to JPG, WebP to PNG: The pages now say the file usually gets bigger, because it does.

A cleaner background remover, pages that work offline, and fixes for tools that could stop working after you used another one.

Added

• offline: Pages you have opened before still load with no connection, and the installed app has shortcuts to popular tools.
• installed app: Open a photo, a PDF or a video from your file manager, and it goes straight into the image compressor, the PDF editor or the video tools.
• long jobs: The screen stays on while a long job runs, so a phone does not fall asleep halfway through.
• error reports: When a tool breaks, your browser sends a short report so it gets fixed sooner. It holds the page, the error and your browser type, never your file.

Changed

• Remove Background: Cleaner edges on people, products and pets, at the same speed.

Fixed

• Remove Background, Text to Speech: They no longer sit on "Removing background…" or never start. The browser was refusing the code that runs them.
• Merge PDF, JSON Formatter: A tool opened after another tool no longer runs the wrong code. Merging said "The source image could not be decoded", and the JSON formatter stopped.
• all file tools: If a tool cannot load, it now says so and offers Try again, instead of waiting forever.

58 free tools that work in your browser, so your files stay on your device.

Added

• Image Tools: Compress, resize, crop, rotate, flip and cut out the background. Convert between JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and AVIF, and copy the text out of a photo.
• PDF: Merge PDFs, edit and sign them, scan a page with your phone, and pull the text out.
• Video Tools: Make a video smaller, cut out a clip, or turn it into a GIF.
• Audio Tools: Take the sound out of a video, turn WAV into MP3, and turn text into speech.
• Text: Count words, compare two texts, change case, sort lines and remove repeats.
• Developer: Format JSON, switch between CSV and JSON, read a JWT, make hashes, build cron times, and encode Base64 and web addresses.
• Web Tools: Make passwords, UUIDs, slugs, QR codes and placeholder text.
• Calculators: Work out age, BMI, body fat, calories, loans and percentages.
• Converters: Switch between centimetres, inches and feet, kilograms and pounds, and Celsius and Fahrenheit.
