Can I remove the background from icon for free?

Yes. You can upload an image, remove the original background, and export a cleaner asset before deciding whether you need heavier editing workflows.

Will PixelCut keep the edges around icon clean?

That is the goal of the workflow. PixelCut is best when you need cleaner cutouts around detail like hair, glass, jewelry, product edges, or packaging contours.

Can I place icon on a white or transparent background?

Yes. Most users start with a clean cutout, then export to white or transparent depending on marketplace, catalog, branding, or design requirements.

What should I upload for the best icon result?

Use the highest-resolution image you have, with clear subject separation and minimal motion blur. Better source images make background removal noticeably more reliable.
