Does the fill look natural?

It depends on the background. The algorithm diffuses inwards from the edge of the painted area, round by round, averaging neighbours, so the more uniform the surrounding colour — plain walls, sky, gradients — the less you can tell. Structured texture such as faces, text or brick patterns doesn't come back convincingly; for those, paint in several small strokes, or go to the full editor («Pro editor», top right) and cover it by hand with Clone Stamp.

Does it alter my original?

Your original file is never touched: all the work happens on a copy in your browser, and what you download is a new PNG. On the page you can always go back, too — Ctrl+Z undoes the last stroke, «Erase» brings a patch back to the original, and «Reset all» restores the whole photo.

Can it remove a watermark?

A simple watermark sitting on an even background, yes; one over a busy picture will not come out cleanly. Please only do this to images you have the right to modify — removing someone else's watermark is illegal in many places.

Is it free? Is my photo uploaded?

Free, no sign-up, no usage limit. Nothing is uploaded either — it all runs in your own browser.

What people want removed is usually very specific: a stranger who wandered into frame, a bin on the pavement, cables across a wall, a watermark on a garment. What they have in common is fairly uniform colour around them — a wall, the sky — which is exactly why filling them in works at all.

Cover the object completely with the brush and let go to fill. The algorithm diffuses inwards from the edge of the painted area, round by round, averaging neighbours, so the surrounding pixels slowly grow into the hole — which is why the more uniform the surroundings, the better the fill: plain walls, sky and gradients show almost no trace. Structured texture such as faces, text or brick patterns is beyond this local algorithm — for those, paint in several small strokes, or go to the full editor («Pro editor», top right) and cover it by hand with Clone Stamp. It edits the pixels directly, with no layers: if you overdo it, switch to «Erase» to bring that patch back to the original, Ctrl+Z undoes the last stroke, and «Reset all» returns to the original. It all runs in your own browser; the photo is never uploaded.

Key features

Paint it out, it's gone

Cover the unwanted object with the brush; let go and the surroundings fill in by themselves — no selection, no sampling.

A wrong stroke can be undone

Ctrl+Z steps back one stroke, «Erase» brings erased areas back to the original, and «Reset all» returns to the original in one click.

Best on uniform backgrounds

Plain walls, sky and gradients show almost no trace; complex textures need several small strokes.

How to use

1
Add a photo

Drag it into the box, or press Ctrl+V to paste.
2
Paint over what should go

Set the «Brush» a little larger than the object, cover it completely, then stay as close to its edge as you can — anything left uncovered gets diffused back into the hole.
3
Let go to see the result

The surroundings fill in; hold the \ key on a desktop or long-press the result on a phone to compare with the original, and erase or press Ctrl+Z if you don't like it.
