Watermark Images in One Batch
Batch processing in Watermarkly is incredibly convenient. You can add a watermark to an entire set of images in one go. Our app saves your previously used watermark templates, so next time you can watermark all your photos with just one click. There’s even a Preview section where you can see how the watermark looks on each photo and adjust it if needed.
Full Customizability
With our free watermarking app, you can easily combine text and logos in your watermark, add your brand name, include copyright symbols or image numbers. Create a watermark from scratch by choosing from over 900 fonts, 90 colors and gradients, and 36 visual effects, including shadows, backgrounds, and a 3D look.
Automatic & Manual Watermark Position
Watermarkly automatically scales watermarks depending on the orientation and size of your images. Smaller photos get a smaller watermark, larger photos get a bigger one. You can disable the auto-scale option if you prefer or change watermark placement for each photo in the batch.
Privacy & Safety
Our app uses secure connections only. We don’t store your photos on our servers and never access them. No one in our company can view your files. Your images are always yours - no matter what.
Watermark Template Synchronization
Our tool to watermark photos synchronizes your watermark templates - text or logo you place on photos. This will allow you to create a consistent watermark, regardless of which device (desktop, laptop, mobile) you use the app on.
