Twelve actions, one selection.
Pick your photos once. Everything below runs on that same set, in whatever order you want.
- Select all
- Walks the entire library, not the screenful Google happens to have rendered.
- Invert or clear
- Flip what is chosen, or hand the whole selection back to Google, in one press.
- Filter first
- Photos, videos, animations, screenshots, collages, motion, or any window of dates.
- Download originals
- Full quality, under the names Google gave them, into a folder you name.
- Bundle into a ZIP
- Built in your browser. Nothing is uploaded anywhere, because there is nowhere to upload to.
- Edit every one at once
- Crop, rotate, auto-enhance, filter, adjust, and export as JPEG, PNG or WebP.
- Watermark in bulk
- Your text or logo, with position, size, opacity, colour and shadow. Save it as a preset.
- Pull frames from video
- Stills extracted at whatever interval you choose, straight out of the clip.
- File into an album
- New or existing, created without a page reload.
- Write descriptions
- Applied across the selection, then read back from Google to prove each one landed.
- Revert Google's edits
- Undo crops and filters applied inside Photos, across a whole selection.
- Move to trash
- Recoverable for 60 days, and each photo is confirmed gone before it counts.
It doesn't lie about what it did.
The most common complaint in this category is a tool that reports success and deletes nothing. It counted the clicks it made, not the photos that left.
This one checks. After every delete it confirms the photo is genuinely gone, waits for the grid to settle, checks again, then reconciles the whole batch at the end. Four of twelve failed? It says four failed, and offers to retry those four. Descriptions are written to Google and read back before they count as done.
Questions.
The ones that come up most.
If yours is not here, the support page covers the fiddlier problems, and the report button inside the extension reaches a person.
The basics
Is it actually free, or free until it matters?
Actually free. No account, no payment, no trial, and no ceiling on how many photos an action covers. Four of the five alternatives above meter you somewhere: 500 a day, 50 files, or a purchase for unlimited use.
Do my photos go through your servers?
No, because there aren't any. Downloads travel straight from Google to your machine, and edits render in your browser. Nothing is uploaded, and no copy of anything is kept.
What does it collect?
Which action ran, how many items, whether it worked, and how long it took. All of it against a random installation id, never your account. No file names, no photo data. Switch it off in the popup whenever you like.
Before you press delete
What if I delete the wrong thing?
Deleted items go to Google Photos' own trash and stay recoverable there for 60 days. The extension never destroys anything outright.
Does bulk editing touch my originals?
No. Edits are exported as new files to your Downloads folder. Your library is left exactly as it was.
What happens when Google changes their site?
Things break, honestly. The extension drives the Google Photos interface, so a redesign can take features down until an update ships. Report it and it gets fixed.
