Frequently asked questions

Choose a question to read the answer.

How do I remove a passerby while keeping my subject?

Paint over the target's clothing, hair and belongings that need removal, keeping wanted people outside the selection. Check boundaries where people overlap railings or branches. Large covered areas may not restore naturally.

For a chair, sign or other item, choose object removal instead.

Should I select shadows and reflections too?

Include them if you want them processed. Afterward, inspect how the edited area joins the ground or wall. A reconstructed background is not a factual record of the scene; keep the original for important photos.

If the person is at an edge you can discard, you can also crop the photo. Save your current result before switching tools.

How are image credits used?

One credit is reserved on submission, consumed on success and released on confirmed failure or cancellation. Downloading the same available result again costs no extra credit. All five removal tools share an allowance.

Which files are supported?

Use JPEG or PNG, up to 5 MiB and 16 megapixels, with a filename of no more than 64 characters. Keep the original. Videos and PDFs are not supported.

How long is the result available?

Download within 24 hours of submission. Refreshing or leaving clears your local image and mask. Existing cloud tasks remain accessible from your account's task list.
