Auto-remove works best on plain or solid-color backgrounds. Use the erase and restore brushes to touch up edges or remove backgrounds that aren't a single flat color.
Frequently asked questions
How does the background removal work?+
It samples the dominant color around the edges of your photo, then removes connected pixels of a similar color starting from the border inward. It works best on plain, solid, or lightly textured backgrounds, like product shots or ID photos.
Will it work on a busy or complex background?+
Automatic removal is less accurate on cluttered scenes since it relies on color similarity, not subject recognition. Use the erase and restore brushes to manually clean up any remaining areas.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?+
No, every step, from sampling the background color to erasing pixels, runs locally on your device using the HTML canvas. Your photo never leaves your browser.
