Encrypt Images Free

Free image encryption — password-protect HEIC, JPG, PNG and WebP photos privately in your browser, no upload needed. Batch encrypt multiple images at once.

Some photos are private enough that you'd rather not leave them sitting around unprotected — this tool locks individual images behind a password, so they can only be opened by someone who knows it. It works with common formats including HEIC, JPG, PNG and WebP, and you can encrypt several photos at once using the same password. To view a locked image again later, just open it with the same tool and enter the password. Everything happens on your device, and the password itself is never sent anywhere.
