Remove Text from a Screenshot

How it works

1. 1

   Upload your screenshot

   Drag in the screenshot you captured, whether it's from a phone, a browser tab, or a desktop app. EditThisPic reads the full image, including any UI chrome, so it can tell text from interface elements.

   Expect: Simple case (single caption or label): under 10 seconds to upload. Complex case (dense UI with multiple overlapping text blocks): still under 20 seconds.

   Describe what you want

   Type what you want gone in plain English, like 'remove the notification banner text at the top' or 'delete the timestamp in the corner.' You don't need to draw a box or highlight anything first.

   Tip: Name the text's location ('top-left', 'status bar', 'bottom banner') so the AI targets exactly the right element in a busy screenshot.

   Copy one of these to get started:

   Notification banner or pop-up text Remove the notification banner and its text from the top of this screenshot, keeping the rest of the interface unchanged

   Timestamp or status bar text Remove the timestamp and battery status text from the top status bar

   Copy Try This →

   Chat bubble or message text Remove the text inside the chat message bubble but keep the bubble shape and app background

   Copy Try This →

   Watermark-style caption text Remove the caption text overlay across the bottom of this screenshot for a clean tutorial image

   Review the result

   Check that the text is gone and the space behind it looks native to the app or page, not smudged or blank. Zoom in around icons and buttons that were close to the removed text.

   Refine with markers if needed

   If a small icon or a second text block got missed, tap a marker directly on it and regenerate. This is optional and only needed for tricky, cluttered screenshots.

   Tip: Markers are for precision refinement, not required — most single-caption screenshots resolve in one pass.
