How it works

Upload Your Photo

Select a photo with a visible date stamp or time stamp you want to remove. Our AI works with all formats including JPG, PNG, and WebP. Photos where the timestamp appears over relatively simple or uniform backgrounds produce the cleanest results.

Expect: Your photo uploads instantly and appears in the editor at full resolution. The original quality is preserved and ready for date stamp removal.
Mark the Date Stamp

Use the brush tool to paint over the entire date and time stamp. Include all numbers, slashes, colons, and any background box or shadow. The AI will remove the text and reconstruct the image beneath it.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Professional Photography

Remove unwanted date stamp from professional photo shoots, client deliverables, and stock photography to achieve clean, polished results.

Common Scenarios

Client portrait sessions where the date stamp appeared unexpectedly in frame
Stock photography that needs the date stamp removed for broader commercial appeal
Product photography with distracting date stamp in the background

Best Practices

Zoom in and place a marker directly on the date stamp for the most accurate removal
Run a second pass if any faint outlines or shadows remain after the first edit
Describe the desired background fill — e.g., 'replace the date stamp with clean wall' for predictable results

📷

Real Estate & Property Listings

Clean up property photos by removing date stamp that distract buyers and lower perceived home value.

Common Scenarios

Listing photos where the date stamp clutters the frame and makes rooms look smaller
Exterior shots with date stamp that hurt curb appeal
Open house photos that need the date stamp removed before uploading to MLS

Best Practices

Shoot the space first, then edit — AI removal works better than awkward staging workarounds
After removing the date stamp, check that floor lines and wall edges still look straight
Process all listing photos in one session so lighting and style stay consistent

If something looks off

AI changed wrong area

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

Mark only the date stamp itself, not surrounding image areas. Use a brush size that covers just the text and any background box, keeping markings tight to the timestamp boundaries.

Try This →

Tip: Use smaller brush strokes on just the target area for more precise AI edits.

Part of timestamp still visible

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

Ensure you marked all characters including dots, slashes, colons, and any AM/PM indicators. Even small unmarked elements will remain. Mark the complete timestamp thoroughly.

Try This →

Tip: Mark any leftover traces and run a second edit for a completely clean result.

Removed area looks blurry or patchy

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

This happens when the date stamp sits over complex or detailed backgrounds. The AI reconstructs based on surrounding areas, so timestamps over simple, uniform backgrounds (sky, walls, grass) produce cleaner results.

Try This →

Tip: Start with a higher-resolution upload for sharper AI-generated results.

Color or texture doesn't match perfectly

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

If the timestamp spans multiple background textures or colors, the AI may struggle to match perfectly. For best results, ensure the timestamp appears over a relatively uniform background area.

Try This →

Tip: Specify the exact colors you want, like 'warm natural tones' or 'cool blue tint.'

Quick answers

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?

Mark both the text and the background box together with the marker tool — the AI treats them as one element to erase. 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 15 edits with unused credits rolling over. All edits are full resolution with no watermark.
