How to clean up a picture?

Step 1

Select an image

First, choose the photo you want to remove an object from. Upload it to the photo editor.

Your image format can be PNG or JPG. We support all image dimensions.

Step 2

Select the unwanted object

Use the brush tool to select the object you want to clean from your picture. Change the brush size to make it easier.

Our magic eraser automatically identifies the unwanted object and erases all undesirable elements.

Step 3

Download your photo

Download your image as a PNG file, and you're done!

You can also create a Photoroom account to store your work and enjoy more photo editing options.

    Paint over the unwanted objects of your image and let Photoroom work its magic. Once you selected the object with the brush tool, it is automatically removed from the photo as if it was never there. Use it to erase any unwanted content, such as people, small objects, watermarks or text.

      Suitable photos for my website

      I love being able to remove backgrounds from my pictures. I sell online, and when I take pictures, it's not always in a clean, uncluttered environment. I like how Photoroom gets rid of all of that and allows me to change the background to something more pleasing to the eye and suitable to place on my website.

    What are some used cases for removing an object from a photo?

    One objective could be to enhance your visual aesthetics. Sometimes, certain objects or people in an image can distract from the main subject or overall composition. By removing them, you can create a cleaner and more visually pleasing image. The second use case to cleaning up a picture is photo retouching: In portrait photography, removing imperfections or distractions like blemishes, wrinkles, or stray hairs can help enhance the subject's appearance and create a more polished image. The last one to mention, is the object isolation: If you want to isolate a specific object or subject in an image, removing other elements can help draw attention solely to the intended focal point. This can be particularly useful in product photography or creating visual graphics.
