Keep your editing settings

Save your current settings

1. In the editor, open Presets and choose Save preset (the plus button). Sign in if prompted; a free account can save personal presets.
2. Enter a Name of up to 40 characters and select a Cover image. The cover uses a sample photo, not your own photograph.
3. Choose Save preset. When editing a saved preset, choose Update preset to replace its settings, or check Save as new to keep a separate copy.

Apply it to another photo

Open the photo, go to Presets and select the saved preset’s thumbnail. Its treatment is applied immediately. Adjust any tool for the new photo; updating the saved preset is a separate action.

Use Manage in Presets to rename a preset, change its cover or remove it.

What a preset keeps

Kept

The treatment: film and print choices, colour and tone settings, light effects, texture and their pattern seeds.

Not kept

The source photograph, crop, rotation, frame settings and undo history. Applying a preset leaves the current photo’s crop and frame in place.

A preset containing Pro settings still needs Pro access to use those settings. Saving it to a free account does not unlock paid tools.

Keep a photo as well as a recipe

Save a preset to reuse the treatment; export a JPEG to keep the finished image. Returning to the editor home, reloading or closing the page ends the photo session. A saved recipe cannot reopen the source photo for you.

If your library does not load, check your connection and that you are signed in to the same account. If a preset is marked incompatible, it cannot be applied by this version of the editor.
