Remove objects from an image in a few simple steps.

  1. From Home, select Remove objects in the menu. Take a photo or select an image from your device and select Done.

    Note:

    You can also remove objects from your image within the editor. Select an image on your canvas and then select Remove object.

  2. In the Remove object section, set your desired brush size using the Brush size slider, then mark an area in the image with the brush and select Remove.

  3. Select Keep to choose an image from the generated Results or More to see additional options.

  4. Select Download   to save the image to your device or Share   it with your online audience. 

Tips for effectively using Remove object
  • Over-selecting the area you want to change helps the AI model determine what should be there.
  • If the results are mostly correct but include something you don't want, consider accepting the result and doing another removal operation on top of that.
  • If you're unhappy with the generated results, use Insert object and describe what you want in the prompt box.
  • You can perform multiple Remove object actions on an image.

Result

An object is removed from the image.
