Apply ready-made adjustments with presets

  • Updated

Presets let you apply a ready-made adjustment, like warming up the color or opening up dark shadows, to your listing photos in one click. Instead of moving sliders on every photo, you pick a preset and choose which photos it should apply to.

There are 10 presets, grouped into three sections: presets that work on any photo, presets built for exteriors, and presets built for interiors. You can apply more than one preset to the same photo. Each one keeps its own effect, so removing one doesn't touch the others.

Open the Presets panel

  1. Open a listing and go to the Edit tab.
     
  2. Click Presets, above the sliders.

The Presets panel opens between your photo and your sliders, listing all 10 presets by name.

The 10 presets

Presets are grouped into three sections. You'll only see the preset names, not their slider values. Once you click a preset, your sliders update to preview its effect before you apply anything.

Shared (works on interior and exterior photos)

  • Warmer: Warms up the overall color.
  • Sharpen: Adds more edge definition and detail.

Exterior (outdoor shots)

  • Brighten Shadows (Exterior): Opens up dark areas in outdoor shots.
  • Natural Greens: Takes the neon out of grass and foliage.
  • Calm Contrast: A less processed look, without touching color saturation.
  • Reduce Highlights: Pulls back blown-out skies and bright surfaces.

Interior (indoor rooms)

  • Brighten Shadows (Interior): Opens up dark areas indoors and pulls back highlights.
  • Soften Whites: Softens blown-out walls with a touch of warmth.
  • Neutralize Wood: Removes the orange cast from wood floors and cabinets.
  • Natural Style: A European-inspired look.

Apply a preset

  1. Click Presets to open the panel.
     
  2. Click the preset you want. It's marked Selected, and your sliders update to preview its effect. Click Cancel to reset the sliders.
     
  3. Choose which photos to apply it to:
    • Tap photos individually in the filmstrip, or
    • Use the group chips (All, Exterior, Interior) to select photos in bulk. You'll only see the chips that match your listing, so an all-interior listing shows just All and Interior.

  1. Click Apply to [number].

The preset now shows as applied in the panel, with a Remove option beneath it.


 

Apply more than one preset

You're not limited to one preset per photo. Click Presets again, pick another preset, and choose its photos the same way you did the first time. Each applied preset keeps its own row in the panel, with its own photo count and its own Remove button.

Presets stack. Their effects add on top of each other and on top of the photo's existing edit, they don't override each other or your manual adjustments. The order you apply them in doesn't change the result.

Remove a preset

Find the preset in the Presets panel and click Remove. This takes its effect off every photo it was applied to. Any other presets on those photos stay exactly as they were.
