Why client-side processing matters

When a tool processes images in your browser, your photos physically never leave your device. This is critically important for sensitive documents like passport photos, ID scans, and personal photographs. PhotoResizer.in leads in this category with all features running client-side.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is client-side image processing?

Client-side processing means the image editing happens in your web browser using your device's computing power. The image is never uploaded to a remote server.
