The catch
Ad-supported, and it is a browser tab — very large files will lean on your RAM.
Why it made the list
Opens .psd files, layers and all, without an Adobe account. There is no trial clock and nothing to cancel.
How this was checked
The limits above were read directly from Photopea's own pricing or documentation pages on 2 Aug 2026 — not taken from a roundup article. That distinction matters more than it sounds: 11 tools were rejected from this site specifically because the widely-repeated free-tier numbers did not survive contact with the vendor's own page.
Free tiers change without announcement, and they usually shrink. If you are reading this well after 2 Aug 2026, open the pricing page yourself before committing to anything.
