Upload and edit your images directly in the Gemini app

Earlier this year, we were the first to put the power of native AI image editing directly in people’s hands with AI Studio. Building on the positive feedback from people using this feature, we’re expanding these capabilities to the Gemini app.

We’re rolling out the ability to easily modify both your AI creations and images you upload from your phone or computer. You can change the background, replace objects, add elements, and more. For example, you can upload a personal photo and prompt Gemini to generate an image of what you’d look like with different hair colors.

This intuitive, multi-step editing capability means you can get richer, more contextual responses to your prompts with text and images integrated. For example, you could ask Gemini to create a first draft of a bedtime story about dragons and provide images to go along with the story.

Consistent with all AI-generated images with Gemini, images created or edited with native image generation will include the invisible SynthID digital watermark. We're also currently experimenting with adding a visible watermark on all images generated by Gemini. Native image editing in Gemini will start rolling out gradually today ¹ , expanding to more people in over 45 languages and most countries in the coming weeks.
