Image Size

• To set the default image size when inserting to UpNote, go to Settings > Editor > Default image size.

• To adjust the size of an individual image, tap/click the image and choose Small, Medium, or Large.

  

  • You can also resize manually by dragging the arrow at the bottom right corner of the image.

• If you want to align images horizontally or vertically, we recommend using a table and placing one image in each cell. Set the image size to "Large" so it fills the cell. This makes it easier to align and resize images by adjusting the cell widths/heights.

Image Compression

UpNote automatically compresses images to keep syncing fast and reduce storage demand. Images under 1MB remain unchanged. For larger files, UpNote resizes the image so its shortest side is 1000px, then applies 90% quality compression.

Editing and Annotating Images in UpNote

UpNote does not currently support in-app image editing or annotation tools. However, you can still edit and annotate images using your device’s built-in image editor on iOS, Mac, and Windows.

On Mac

1. Go to Settings → Editor → Attachments → uncheck the option “Open attachment in preview mode”.

2. Double-click the image in your note. The image will open in your computer’s default image viewer/editor.

3. Edit or annotate the image as needed.

4. Save the image using Cmd + S.

Once saved, the updated image will automatically appear in UpNote.

On Windows

1. Double-click the image in your note to open it in the image viewer.

2. Click the Edit icon in the top toolbar.

3. Annotate or edit the image.

4. After finishing, click Save from the dropdown menu.

The edited image will be updated automatically in UpNote.

On iOS

1. Tap the image in your note.

2. Tap “View” in the center of the image.

3. Tap “Edit” in the bottom-left corner.

4. Tap the Markup icon in the bottom-right corner. (You may need to tap the image again to make the toolbar appear.)

5. Add your annotations or edits.

6. Tap “Done” in the top-right corner to save your changes.

The edited image will then be updated in your note automatically.
