Pixlr Review 2025

Here’s a quick overview of the tools available in this suite:

• Editor: It’s an advanced photo editor designed for those who prefer fine-tuning the images themselves.
• Express: A simplified version of the editor with a more intuitive interface. Excellent for editing on the go or when you need a fast correction.
• Designer: It offers thousands of templates and image grids for collages. You can create all types of images with generous help from the available collections.
• Background remover: The tool focuses on removing backgrounds, and you can do that from single or multiple images.
• Batch Photo Editor: It’s convenient when you need to crop, resize, or adjust brightness and other elements on multiple photos at once.

My Pixlr review focuses on this AI tool’s photo editing aspects, so we’ll cover that in the following sections.

Automatic Enhancements

Once you enter the photo editor offered by the Pixlr tool, you can make fast enhancements. Find the Adjustment menu in the top section and choose the desired option. You can automatically adjust colors, pick the auto-pop option, and even turn your image into a black-and-white photo.

If you don’t like the result, it’s easy to revert to a previous step by using the history panel on the right side.

Photo Editor Functions

Pixlr tool has all-around photo editing functions, and we’ll list some below:

• Arrange: It’s the tool that allows moving or changing layer settings.
• Select: You can use standard square and circle modes or the free-hand options, including lasso, polygon, Bezier, and magnetic. Magic wand tool is also available.
• Coloring options: You can use the Color Replace feature in the AI photo editor to replace one color with another by drawing over it. Filling whole areas with single colors and creating gradients is also an option.
• Drawing functions: Different pen types, such as ink, crayons, and neon, are all available. It’s also possible to doodle and draw using the brush provided.
• Other functions: Text or different shapes, such as a star, can be added in Pixlr. Lightening or darkening areas or even dispersing the chosen section, as well as a variety of other functions, round up the versatility offered by this tool.

AI Effects and Filters

I have already analyzed some AI effects, but it can’t hurt to mention Pixlr’s AI photo editing tool capabilities once again. You can remove a particular object from the image or erase the entire background. Adding another backdrop, including generating it based on a description, is another user favorite. Generative transform will allow you to separate a single object and rotate, resize, or move it freely. After removing noise, AI can upscale your image to the desired quality with a click.

Pixlr also has loads of filters. Newbies will appreciate the Express tool since they can experiment with different approaches easily. You can mimic HDR by letting the tool bring up dark areas while keeping lights the same. Reflects, dispersions, glitches, and colorizing effects can all do wonders with your images.

Now, let’s support this with a few examples. I used AI generative expansion to make a square image out of the photo. It took a few seconds, but Pixlr delivered flawlessly.

Super Scale is a convenient tool for upscaling images, and artificial intelligence can also help remove background noise and grain. The AI tool can also fix out-of-focus or shaky images or remove particular objects with a single click. Here’s the fantastic job Pixlr did when I asked it to remove the entire background.

You can also add backdrops, such as splash, motion, or zoom. Pixlr offers an option to generate backdrops, but make sure you are specific about instructions. That is the path to optimal results when using AI-based photo editing features.

Face Swap is the next feature I tried. The idea is simple, you add a photo with the desired face and the target image. Pixlr will take a few seconds and produce the result. For testing purposes, I attempted to put Bradley Cooper’s face on Lady Gaga’s.

The result was beyond expectations, especially since I used two random images. For even better results, try to pick photos of a similar size and angle.

The final thing I tested in my Pixlr review is the AI image generator. It’s another feature offered by the tool, and it’s as easy as ABC. You can use the prompt to add a description and pick specifics like the style, size, lighting, composition, and color choice. I picked to see a blonde girl on the beach from an angle above, and the result was fantastic.

Our next goal was to create an image of the blonde girl on a beach with two males looking at her. It was a more complex variation, and you could see that Pixlr had small problems here.

Despite that, the tool does a fantastic job of generating AI photos. It also provides four image variations based on the instructions, so there are huge odds one of those will fit your needs.[1]
