How the converter works

The tool reads visible brightness from each pixel and maps it to a creative color palette. It never measures temperature, reveals infrared data, or adds details that are missing from the original photo.

Use the preview on mobile or desktop

Try several palettes and a moderate intensity first. Save a lightweight preview, or continue in the iPhone app for live camera effects, video capture, history, and sharing.
