What you can do with the AI image editor

Swap backgrounds for product photos

Take a phone shot and drop in a studio backdrop, lifestyle scene, or solid colour — perfect for ecommerce listings without hiring a photographer.

Replace the background with a clean white studio backdrop, soft shadow under the product.

Change clothing colours

Try a different colour palette on a shirt, jacket, or shoes before you commit to a design. Useful for fashion designers and online sellers.

Change the t-shirt colour to deep emerald green, preserve fabric texture and lighting.

Remove distracting objects

Get rid of photobombing tourists, garbage cans, traffic cones, or random clutter. The AI fills the gap with surrounding scenery naturally.

Remove the trash can on the left side, fill the space with the same brick wall.

Build holiday cards & profile pics

Add hats, sunglasses, snow, festive backgrounds, or seasonal effects to any portrait. Great for end-of-year cards and themed avatars.

Add a red Santa hat on the person's head, snowflakes falling in the background.

Real estate decluttering

Empty rooms of personal items before listing — remove magnets from the fridge, clear the kitchen counter, take down family photos.

Remove all personal items from the kitchen counter, keep the counter clean and empty.

Style transfer

Convert any photo to a pencil sketch, watercolour, oil painting, anime style, or low-poly render. Same subject, completely different look.

Convert the entire image to a hand-drawn pencil sketch with cross-hatching on white paper.

Add accessories to portraits

Try on sunglasses, hats, earrings, makeup, or hairstyles without leaving your couch. Useful for ecommerce previews and creative experiments.

Add stylish black aviator sunglasses to the person, with realistic reflections in the lenses.

How to write prompts that actually work

1
Be specific about what to change. 'Change the car to deep emerald green with metallic finish' beats 'green car'. Name the object, the new colour, and the texture.
2
One or two edits per prompt. Asking for 'change background AND add a hat AND remove glasses' in one go usually fails. Do edits in sequence — edit, download, re-upload, edit again.
3
Mention what to preserve. 'Replace background with beach, keep the person's face, hair, and pose untouched' is far more reliable than 'put me on a beach'.
4
Use specific style words. 'Photorealistic', 'oil painting', 'anime style', 'cinematic lighting', 'soft golden hour' — these all bias the model in useful directions.
5
Set the aspect ratio for social. Pick 9:16 for TikTok/Reels, 16:9 for YouTube thumbnails, 1:1 for Instagram feed posts. The AI will recompose the scene to fit.
6
Iterate fast — don't expect one-shot perfection. Re-prompt with small tweaks (' but more vibrant', '...slightly warmer lighting'). Most professional edits take 3-5 iterations.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the Free AI Image Editor. Still stuck? Email us at info@textphoto.app.

How is this different from Photoshop?

Photoshop is a manual tool — you click and drag. This is prompt-based — you describe the edit in words and the AI does the heavy lifting in 10-20 seconds. Great for one-off edits where setting up Photoshop layers isn't worth the time.

Will it preserve the original photo's quality?

Yes — Nano Banana is designed to keep the original subject sharp and only modify what you ask. Resolution stays close to the input.

What kinds of edits work best?

Background changes, color swaps, object removal, adding small elements (glasses, hats, jewelry), style transfers (sketch, oil painting, anime). Avoid asking for many edits in one prompt — one or two at a time gives the best results.

Why is there a usage limit?

AI image editing costs us ~$0.04 per call. The 1/hour and 3/day per user cap lets us keep this tool free for everyone.

Is my image stored?

Your uploaded image is processed and deleted from our servers shortly after the edit. The result is hosted on a CDN for a few hours so you can download it.

Can I use the result commercially?

Yes — outputs are yours to use anywhere: client work, ecommerce listings, social posts.

Tips for the best results?

Be specific. 'Change the car to deep emerald green' is better than 'green car'. For complex edits, do them in steps — edit, download, re-upload, edit again.
