Google Brings AI Image Editing to Gemini App

Google has announced it's bringing enhanced AI-powered image editing features directly into its Gemini app. This move builds upon the native AI image editing introduced earlier this year within the company's AI Studio tool.

The update allows users to modify not only images generated by Gemini's AI but also photos uploaded directly from their device. Using text prompts in the Gemini app, people can change image backgrounds, replace or add objects, and alter details in their own photos, such as experimenting with different hair colors. Google points out this combination allows for more interactive, multi-step creative workflows. For instance, users could ask Gemini to generate text for a story and simultaneously create or edit accompanying images within the same workflow.

Consistent with its policy for AI-generated content, Google confirmed that images created or edited using these new Gemini features will include an invisible SynthID digital watermark. The company also mentioned it is currently testing the addition of visible watermarks on images generated by Gemini.


These native image editing features begin rolling out gradually within the Gemini app starting today. Broader availability is expected across most countries and in over 45 languages in the coming weeks.

You can download Google Gemini from the App Store for free.
