Paint over anything you don't want in a photo — a stranger in the background, a blemish, a date stamp, a watermark, a power line — and the tool fills the gap from the surrounding pixels. It all happens in your browser: your photo is never uploaded, there's no account, and nothing is stamped on the result.
How to use it
- Drop or choose a JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF or BMP image.
- Set the brush size and paint over the thing you want gone. Paint a little beyond its edge — shadows and soft outlines count.
- Press Remove marked area. Repeat for other spots, one at a time.
- Don't like a result? Undo steps back (up to five steps).
- Download the PNG when it looks right.
What it works best on
The fill is a smooth blend of the colors and gradients around the marked area, with film-grain matched to the nearby pixels so the patch doesn't look airbrushed. That makes it very good at:
- blemishes, dust, scratches and sensor spots
- text, date stamps and thin watermarks
- cables, wires, small signs and other thin or small objects
- small objects on a sky, wall, water, grass or other even background
It's weaker on large objects against a busy, detailed background — a person in front of a brick wall will be smoothed over rather than "re-imagined" with new bricks. Working in several small strokes instead of one large one gives noticeably better results. That trade-off is deliberate: tools that invent new content send your photo to a server and an AI model; this one doesn't.
Is my photo uploaded?
No. The image is decoded, edited and exported inside your browser tab.
Very large images
Images larger than about 3000 pixels on the long side are scaled down to that size so editing stays responsive; the download is at that working size.
