Remove an unwanted object from a photo

Get rid of a photobomber, a power line or a date stamp. Content-Aware Fill fills the gap using the surrounding picture, and the healing tools clean up small spots.

Remove an object No sign-up. Files never leave your device.

How to remove an object

  1. Click Remove an object and open your photo. The Lasso tool is selected.
  2. Draw loosely around the object, leaving a little margin.
  3. Choose Edit › Content-Aware Fill, check the preview, and click OK.
  4. Touch up any seams with the Spot Healing Brush (J) or the Clone Stamp (S), then export.

Tips

  • For small spots and blemishes, skip the selection and just click them with the Spot Healing Brush.
  • Work on a duplicate layer so you can mask out any mistakes.

Good to know

Content-Aware Fill is patch-based. It is excellent on skies, grass, walls and texture, and weaker where it would need to invent complex structure such as a face behind the object.
