What it does (and when to use it)

Remove Background isolates the subject (product, person, or object) and removes the background—ideal for marketplaces, catalogs, and design templates.

Best input photo tips

  • High contrast between subject and background
  • Avoid motion blur and extreme compression artifacts
  • Hair/fur can work well, but clean edges depend on lighting and focus

Step-by-step

Web

  1. Import an image into a project
  2. Select Remove Background
  3. Use Erase/Restore (or similar refine tools) to clean up edges
  4. Export as a transparent PNG when you need cutouts

iOS / Android

  1. Import an image
  2. Tap Remove Background
  3. Refine edges with brushes if needed
  4. Export or share

Output options and limitations

  • Transparent backgrounds typically export as PNG
  • Very thin details (laces, small text) may require manual cleanup

Common issues

  • Edges look jagged: try a higher-resolution input or refine with restore/erase
  • Subject not detected: use a clearer image with higher contrast
