Remove White Background: how it works
Logos, signatures, scanned stamps and product shots are often saved on a white background, which looks wrong on coloured slides, websites and documents. This tool makes that background transparent.
It works on plain, evenly coloured backgrounds. By default only background connected to the edges is removed, so white areas inside the subject (eyes, text counters, highlights) stay put. For busy photo backgrounds you'd need an AI background remover instead.
How to remove the white background from an image

Frequently asked questions
Can it remove a busy background from a portrait photo?
No. It removes one plain colour. Photos with complex backgrounds need an AI remover.
Why is there a white halo around my logo?
Increase the edge softness or tolerance slightly; halos come from anti-aliased edges blending with the old background.
Is the Remove White Background free?
Yes. The Remove White Background is completely free with no sign-up, no watermarks, no daily limits and no premium tier.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. FileStripe processes your files locally in your web browser using JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded, so the Remove White Background is safe for private photos and confidential documents and even works offline once the page has loaded.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The Remove White Background works in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Samsung Internet on phones, tablets and computers. On a phone you can pick files from your photo library or files app and share the result straight to another app.
