Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I watermark my images?
Watermarking protects your creative work from unauthorized reuse, scrapers, and copyright infringement on social media and portfolio websites, while reinforcing your brand name.
Can I watermark multiple photos at the same time?
Yes. Picy supports bulk batch watermarking. Upload multiple images, configure your styling once, and apply the watermark to all photos with a single click.
Can I download all watermarked images in a ZIP file?
Yes! When processing multiple photos, Picy includes a 'Download All (ZIP)' button that bundles your watermarked collection into a single archive.
Does watermarking reduce the original image resolution?
No. Watermarking is drawn directly on the full-resolution pixel canvas, retaining 100% of the input image clarity and detail.
Are my photos uploaded to your servers?
No. All watermarking operations are performed locally in your web browser. Your private images are never uploaded or stored.
