iLoveIMG is a popular multi-tool image suite. Every operation uploads your image to their servers. PixlFits offers the same toolset (and more) without ever transmitting your image. Here's the side-by-side.

When to choose PixlFits
More tools (EXIF, PDF, palette, QR, AVIF), no ads, no upload, no premium tier. Faster on slow connections because nothing is uploaded.
When to choose iLoveIMG
Browser extension is convenient. Some heavy operations (large PDFs > 200 MB) work better server-side. If you don't care about privacy and prefer a one-click browser extension, it's a fit.
Privacy comparison in plain English
When you use iLoveIMG, your image travels over the internet to their servers (in the EU or US), gets stored temporarily (usually 1 hour, sometimes longer), and is processed there. The company has access to your file during that window. This is fine for memes and screenshots — it's not fine for ID photos, medical images, client work, or anything covered by GDPR / HIPAA.
When you use PixlFits, your image stays in your browser's RAM. You can verify this in DevTools → Network tab — there's no upload request. The processing happens via JavaScript Canvas API or WebAssembly running on your CPU.

Is iLoveIMG safe for personal photos?
iLoveIMG uploads your photo to their servers. They have a privacy policy, but the photo is technically out of your control once uploaded. For sensitive photos (IDs, medical, client work), PixlFits is safer because nothing is uploaded.
Is PixlFits as good as iLoveIMG?
For 80%+ of image-processing tasks, PixlFits matches or beats iLoveIMG on speed and is free without ads. For very specialized server-side features (e.g. AI super-resolution at 8x), iLoveIMG may have an edge.
Can I switch easily?
