How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Drop your image with unwanted text into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. Works on any photo with text overlays, captions, signs, or written content you want removed.

    Expect: Small text or corner caption: 15-20 seconds. Large text across the image: 20-35 seconds and may need a refinement pass.
  2. Describe the text to remove

    Type 'remove all the text from this photo' or be specific: 'erase the white caption text at the bottom of the image.' For photos where some text should stay (like a sign you want to keep), specify which text to remove. The AI understands text as a visual element.

    Tip: If the photo has text you want to keep AND text to remove, be specific: 'remove only the meme caption, keep the street sign text.'

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Remove meme caption text remove all the meme text from the top and bottom of this photo, restore the image underneath
    Remove social media overlay remove the username, hearts, and all social media overlay text from this screenshot
    Remove banner or promotional text remove the promotional text banner across the image and restore the photo behind it
    Remove caption from screenshot remove the subtitle text at the bottom of this screenshot and show the clean image
    3 more prompts
    Remove sign text from photo remove the text on the sign in this photo but keep the sign itself, just erase the written content
    Remove text but keep specific text remove the large white overlay text but keep the small watermark credit text in the corner
    Remove handwritten text or graffiti remove the graffiti text written on the wall and restore the clean wall surface underneath
  3. Review the removal

    Check that all unwanted text is gone. Zoom in on where text was—the underlying image should be smooth with no letter ghosts, color shifts, or blur patches. Verify text you wanted to keep is still intact.
