How it works

Upload your photo

Upload your landscape or outdoor photo. Higher resolution captures give the AI more detail to work with for sky color adjustments. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

Expect: Most edits complete in 20-45 seconds. Complex changes may need 1-2 refinements.
Describe your edit

Type what you want: 'Change the sky to a vibrant deep blue with white clouds.' Be specific about details for best results. The AI understands natural language — no technical skills needed.

Tip: Tap a marker on the specific object whose color you want to change.

Copy one of these to get started:

Deep Blue Change the sky to a vibrant deep blue with scattered white clouds
Try This →

Sunset Orange Change the sky color to warm sunset orange and pink gradient
Try This →

Dramatic Purple Change the sky to a dramatic purple and magenta twilight
Try This →

Soft Pastel Change the sky to soft pastel pink and lavender clouds at dawn

2 more prompts

Stormy Gray Change the sky to dramatic dark storm clouds with a break of light
Try This →

Teal Twilight Change the sky to a deep teal twilight with the first stars appearing
Try This →
Review the result

Compare the color adjustment against the original using the slider. Verify that tones look natural, skin colors weren't distorted, and the overall mood matches what you described.
Refine if needed

If certain areas got the wrong color treatment — like skin turning orange or shadows going muddy — tap markers on those spots and describe the correction you need.

Tip: Markers are optional. Try without them first — the AI usually gets it right.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Interior Design & Renovation

Visualize sky color changes before painting, reupholstering, or purchasing — saving time and money on design decisions.

Common Scenarios

Testing how a sky looks in navy, sage, or terracotta before committing
Showing clients multiple sky color options using the same room photo
Matching sky color to existing decor in a renovation plan

Best Practices

Upload a photo with even lighting so the AI can accurately map the color boundary
Tap directly on the sky to mark it, then specify the exact color you want
Try describing the finish too — 'matte charcoal' vs. 'glossy charcoal' gives different results

📷

Fashion & Style Preview

Try different sky colors digitally before purchasing or coordinating an outfit.

Common Scenarios

Previewing a sky in multiple colors before buying online
Coordinating sky color with the rest of an outfit for an event
Creating mood boards that show sky color variations for a stylist or client

Best Practices

Mark the sky precisely — if nearby items share a similar color, the AI may change them too
Specify the fabric look: 'change to burgundy silk' captures both color and material
Process the same photo with 3-4 colors to build a comparison grid

📷

Product & Marketing Visuals

Generate sky color variants from a single product photo — perfect for catalogs, ads, and e-commerce listings.

Common Scenarios

Creating all color variants of a sky from one studio shot
Matching sky to brand colors for marketing campaigns
Showing seasonal sky color options without reshooting

Best Practices

Start with a neutral, well-lit product photo on a plain background for cleanest results
Use exact color names or hex codes when precision matters — 'Pantone Classic Blue' or '#0F4C81'
After changing sky color, verify shadows and highlights still look natural

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from the description alone.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want to edit, then regenerate with the same prompt

Try This →

Tip: Markers tell the AI exactly where to focus. Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Result looks unnatural or blurry

Why: The AI may need more specific guidance about the look you want.

Try:

Change the sky to a vibrant deep blue with white clouds, ensure natural lighting and sharp details that match the rest of the photo

Try This →

Tip: Adding 'natural' and 'realistic' to your prompt helps the AI prioritize believability.

Color bled onto adjacent objects

Why: The AI couldn't precisely separate the target object from its neighbors.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific object and regenerate: 'only change the color of this object'

Try This →

Tip: Tap a marker on the specific object whose color you want to change for precise results.

New color looks flat without the original texture

Why: The AI replaced the color but lost the surface detail like wood grain, fabric weave, or brushstrokes.

Try: Add 'preserve the original surface texture, reflections, and material properties' to your prompt

Try This →

Tip: Mention the material: 'keep the wood grain visible' or 'preserve the matte finish.'

Metallic or glossy finish not preserved

Why: The AI treated the surface as matte when recoloring, losing the shine and reflections.

Try: Specify 'keep the metallic/glossy finish with natural reflections and highlights'

Try This →

Tip: Include surface type in your prompt: 'glossy', 'metallic', 'satin', or 'matte' for accurate rendering.

Quick answers

Will it look natural?

Does it handle tree edges well?

Yes. The AI precisely detects sky boundaries including complex edges like tree branches and building outlines.

Can I use specific color codes?

The AI works best with descriptive color names rather than hex codes. Describe the mood and color you want.

Yes. Works in any mobile browser with no app needed.
