Built for Hinge Users
Hinge is designed to be deleted. That means your photos need to show the real you, but the best version. You have genuine moments captured, but they're unusable because of who's in them or how they're lit. EditThisPic lets you keep the authenticity while fixing the problems. Remove exes cleanly, enhance your natural features, crop for the perfect profile composition.

How to Edit Your Hinge Photos
Upload your photo
Drop your image into EditThisPic. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB. That hiking photo with your ex, the portrait with harsh lighting, any photo where you look genuine but something else needs fixing.
Describe what you want
Type your instruction: 'remove the person on the left' or 'enhance the portrait with softer, warmer lighting.' Be specific about what you want. No marking needed for most edits.
Generate and review
Tap generate and check the result carefully. Make sure removed people are completely gone and your portrait enhancement looks natural, not over-filtered. Hinge users appreciate authenticity.
Refine with markers if needed
If there's leftover arm or the enhancement affected the wrong area, tap markers on the problem spots and regenerate. Most edits work without markers.

Real Hinge Photo Transformations
Ex removed from hiking adventure photo
Perfect mountain summit photo, but the ex was right there. One prompt removed them and restored the scenic background.
remove the person on the right and fill in with the mountain scenery naturally
Portrait enhanced with softer lighting
Good selfie but the indoor lighting was harsh and unflattering. Enhanced to look warm and natural for the dating profile.
enhance the portrait with softer, warmer lighting, reduce harsh shadows, keep skin looking natural
Boring wall swapped for cozy coffee shop
Great expression and angle, but the plain apartment wall was hurting the profile. Changed to a warm coffee shop setting for more personality.
change the background to a cozy coffee shop with warm ambient lighting and bookshelves, keep the lighting on my face consistent
When Things Go Wrong
AI changed the wrong area or removed the wrong person
Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from description alone. This happens with ambiguous requests.
Tap a marker on the specific area you want to change, then regenerate with the same prompt
Markers tell the AI 'I mean THIS one specifically.' Use them when description alone is ambiguous.
Portrait enhancement looks too filtered or fake
Why: The AI over-enhanced, making you look unnatural. Hinge users will notice.
enhance the portrait subtly with slightly softer lighting, keep all features completely natural
Add 'subtle' and 'natural' to your prompt. Less is more for dating profiles.
Removed person left a ghost outline or shadow
Why: The AI filled the space but missed residual shadows or edges.
remove the remaining shadow and blend the background seamlessly where the person was
A second pass specifically targeting the shadow usually cleans it up perfectly.
New background lighting doesn't match my face
Why: Your face was lit from one direction but the new background suggests different lighting.
change background to [scene] with light coming from the left to match my face lighting
Look at which side of your face is brighter and match the background light source.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to mark my ex before removing them?
No! Just describe where they are: 'remove the person on the left' or 'remove the person in the green shirt.' The AI understands. Only use markers for group photos where position alone is ambiguous.
Will my photos look too edited or fake?
Not if you keep enhancements subtle. Hinge users appreciate authenticity. Remove exes completely, but go light on portrait enhancement. Avoid backgrounds that obviously don't match your lighting.
What makes a good Hinge photo to edit?
Photos where you look genuine and happy, but something is wrong with the context. Your ex is there, the lighting is bad, or the background is boring. Start with photos that capture your real personality.
Can I use this for all my Hinge photos?
You can, but mix it up. Your main photo can have an enhanced background, but include some completely unedited photos too. Authenticity matters when you actually meet someone.
