How to remove a background
- Add your photo. Drop it on the page or choose it from your device.
- Let the AI work. The first time, the AI model (about 5 MB) loads onto your device. After that it's quick.
- Pick a background. Keep it transparent, or choose white, a colour or a blurred version of the original.
- Download. PNG keeps the transparent background.

Why is the first use slower?

What works best?
A clear subject that stands out from the background. Fine hair and see-through objects are the hardest.
