BigJPG will help you to enlarge small images. This may sound trivial, but if you’ve tried it before, you’ll know that the result is anything but cool. There are, of course, professional applications that can help you with this. These professional applications use advanced algorithms to achieve a decent result. However, these applications are usually costly. The small tool we are presenting here can achieve great results with the help of AI. And the best thing is that it’s free.
Why you need BigJPG
A tool like BigJPG helps you to resize an image in the more difficult direction. This means it is usually easy to downsize an image without losing quality. Even the simplest image editing programs, such as MS Paint, do a good job of reducing the size of images. However, if you try to enlarge an image, it often becomes blurry. As we’ve already mentioned, some applications use advanced algorithms to deliver great results. And some of these professional tools are following the new trend and are using AI. However, professional tools are expensive. But you don’t have to spend money to enlarge your pictures without losing quality.
In the free version of BigJPG, you can enlarge your images by a factor of two or four and reduce noise. You can also choose between graphics and photos. With the premium version, you can resize by a factor of 8 or 16. However, you can also simply resize your image in two steps. One thing you should note is that you need to be connected to the internet. The reason for this is that the app uploads your image in order to process it.
Security, again
BigJPG requires internet access to upload the image to a server in mainland China. After processing, you can download your image in the new size. As far as we know, there are no security issues related to this application. However, whenever something is connected to the internet, especially if there are downloads involved, you need to be aware that there is a risk of downloading malware. Make sure your computer is protected!
