Remove Text from Image
Click any line of text to erase it, or remove all of it at once — the background is rebuilt from the pixels around it.
Tips: click a highlighted line to erase it, or Remove all text to clear every line at once. Missed a watermark, date stamp or caption? Turn on Draw a box and drag over it. The gap is filled from the colours around it, so plain, gradient and lightly textured backgrounds come out cleanest. Everything runs in your browser; the first run downloads the text reader (about 2–5 MB) once.
About the Remove Text from Image
Remove Text from Image erases captions, labels, date stamps, prices and other words from a picture. OCR finds every line of text, and you remove lines one by one or all at once. Only the letter pixels are cleared and the gap is filled from the surrounding colours, so the background behind the text comes back naturally on plain, gradient and lightly textured areas. For anything the reader misses, draw a box over it by hand. Your image never leaves your device.
How to use the Remove Text from Image
- Choose an image, drop it on the page or paste a screenshot.
- Wait while the text is detected and highlighted.
- Click lines to remove them, or press Remove all text. Draw a box over anything that was missed.
- Download the clean image as PNG or JPG.
Frequently asked questions
How do I remove text from a picture for free?
Upload the picture, click each highlighted line of text or press Remove all text, then download the result. There is no sign-up and no watermark.
Will the background look natural?
On plain colours, gradients and soft textures the erased area blends in well. Busy photos with fine detail behind the text may show a soft patch; drawing a tight box keeps it small.
Can I remove a watermark with this?
It can erase text you own the rights to, such as your own captions or stamps. Do not remove watermarks from images that belong to someone else.
Is my image uploaded?
No. Detection and erasing happen entirely in your browser.
