Apple introduces AI-powered object removal in photos with latest iOS update

Apple introduces AI-powered object removal in photos with latest iOS update

Apple has released new developer betas for iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, and macOS 15.1 Sequoia. With this update, the company is introducing new Apple Intelligence features, including the ability to remove objects from photos.

The feature called Clean Up allows users to identify and remove an object from a photo without affecting the image. The system uses artificial intelligence to generate the background when removing an object from a photo. Apple said the system even understands the shadow or reflection of the object and handles it while filling in the background.

Users can select an object using the smart detection feature to remove it with just one click. People can also move a circle or brush over any unwanted object to remove it from the photo.

Apple’s rival Google made a similar feature called Magic Eraser available to all Google Photos users for free earlier this year.

In July, Apple rolled out the first set of Apple Intelligence features with the iOS 18.1 dev beta. These features included Writing Tools, Notification Summaries for SMS and Email, Natural Language Search, Memory Creation in Photos, Call and Audio Recordings Transcriptions in Notes, and Summaries and Smart Replies in Mail. Apple Intelligence is available to users in English only with their region set to the United States.
