Frequently asked questions
Is Adjust Brightness free to use?
Yes. Adjust Brightness is completely free with no account, no trial and no usage cap. Every feature on this page is available on the first visit.
Does Adjust Brightness upload your file to a server?
No. Adjust Brightness processes your file inside your browser, so it never reaches a DocTools server. That also means the tool keeps working if your connection drops mid-task.
Is there a file size limit?
The practical ceiling is your device's available memory rather than a server quota. Files up to roughly 100 MB work comfortably on a typical laptop in Adjust Brightness.
Do I need to install anything to use Adjust Brightness?
No installation is needed. Adjust Brightness runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and on mobile, with no extension or plugin.
Can I use Adjust Brightness on a phone or tablet?
Yes. The Adjust Brightness interface adapts to small screens and supports touch input, though very large jobs are faster on a desktop browser.
What happens to your file when I close the tab?
It is discarded. Adjust Brightness keeps everything in temporary browser memory, so closing the tab removes every trace of the session.
