The short answer
Why use Image Splitter?
Simple overlays and markups should not require a large design application. The browser preview lets you place the element, flatten a copy, and move on.
Image Splitter focuses on building a flattened image splitter result from the selected image inputs. Composition tools draw text, shapes, or additional images onto a canvas. Downloading flattens the layers, so the exported file behaves like a normal image.
The selected file stays in this browser tab and is released when you leave the page. Zoom in on text and thin lines before export. The downloaded image is flattened, so keep the source files if you may need to edit it again.
What Image Splitter does
Open the source photo

Place the extra layer

Useful controls
Main controls: Text, color, size, position, opacity, or layout, depending on the tool. Working limit: 50 MB and 50 megapixels per image; multi-image jobs also depend on available memory. Watch the preview at full size before you save. A current desktop browser usually has more memory than a phone.
Download a flattened copy
Export is a flattened png or a zip when the job creates several files. The download is a new file. Keep the original until you have opened the copy once.
Where Image Splitter fits
These are ordinary jobs where the focused controls save time. They also show where a full editor or a manual review may still be the better choice.
Review notes
