Do I need to mark the date stamp?
Yes, paint over the entire date and time stamp using the brush tool. Include all characters, symbols, and any background box. The AI will remove everything you mark and reconstruct the image beneath.
Can it remove any color of date stamp?
Yes, the AI removes date stamps in any color including orange, yellow, white, red, green, or any other color that old cameras or video captures added to photos.
What if the date stamp has a background box?
It handles solid color boxes, semi-transparent overlays, drop-shadow text, and the orange/yellow boxes that some 90s and 2000s cameras burned in. After removal, the AI fills the area using surrounding pixels so the patch blends with the background instead of leaving a flat color block.
Will it work on scanned photos?
Yes, it works on scanned photos with printed or stamped dates. Mark the visible date information and the AI will remove it just like digital timestamps.
Is EditThisPic's AI date stamp remover really free?
Yes — every visitor gets one free edit per week with no account needed, so you can erase a date stamp from a scanned photo at no cost the first time. If you need more, the Lite plan is $4.99/month for 15 credits, Standard is $12.99/month for 50, and Pro is $29.99/month for 150. There are also one-time credit packs from $1.99.
Can I remove date stamp on my phone?
Yes. EditThisPic runs entirely in your mobile browser — iPhone Safari, Android Chrome, and tablets all work. There's nothing to install. Just open editthispic.com, tap to upload a photo from your camera roll, type your prompt, and erase a date stamp from a scanned photo. The result downloads straight back to your photos. There's also an iOS app on the App Store.
What photo formats does the AI date stamp remover support?
EditThisPic accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC files up to 7MB. HEIC support matters for iPhone users since that's the default capture format. The AI date stamp remover returns the result in the same format you uploaded, so an HEIC in stays an HEIC out — no conversion step or quality loss in transit.
How long does it take to remove date stamp?
Most edits finish in 15-30 seconds. Upload your photo, describe what you want in plain English, and the AI generates the result while you watch. Complex prompts or Pro mode (which uses 2 credits for higher-quality output) can take up to a minute. You'll never wait longer than that — if it does, the credit refunds automatically.
How much does EditThisPic cost?
You get 1 free edit per week — no account needed. After that, credit packs start at $1.99 for 3 edits. Monthly plans start at $4.99/mo for 20 edits with unused credits rolling over. All edits are full resolution with no watermark.
