FAQ
How do I convert an image to ASCII art?
Upload your image into the tool; it analyzes the brightness of each area and assigns a lighter or denser character accordingly. The text result appears at once, ready to copy.
Which image formats are supported?
Common formats like PNG, JPEG, GIF, and WebP are supported, since the tool relies on the browser's image decoding. High-contrast images usually give the best results.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No, the image is processed locally in your browser and is never sent to a server. It stays entirely private on your device.
