In your Preferences, you can choose which image file type Photorooom will use, by default, when you export. The options are .png, .jpg, .webp.
When you export a design, you can either:
Export using the default file type, which is set in your Preferences
Choose a different file type, just for that specific export.
Note: You should set your Preferences on each device on which you use Photoroom. If you are a team admin, each of your team members should set their preferences on their devices too. Preferences are not shared across your devices or shared across team workspaces.
