About Change Photo Background
A photo background changer that works on your device. The subject is found with an AI model and refined along its edges, then placed on the background you choose: a solid color, a custom color or another picture scaled to cover the frame. Edge colors are decontaminated so the new background blends in instead of showing a halo.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use my own picture as the background?+
Yes. Choose Image and add any photo; it is scaled to fill the frame behind the subject. Try a few: the cutout stays the same, only the background changes.
Can I pick an exact brand color?+
Yes. Under Color, use the custom color picker to enter any color, including a hex code.
Why does the subject look natural on a new color?+
Along the outline, the old background's color is mixed into the pixels. It is estimated and removed before the new background goes in, so a person shot against a green wall does not get a green fringe on blue.
Can I make the background blurred instead?+
Yes. Choose Blur to keep the original scene but out of focus, like a phone's portrait mode.
Does it work on a phone?+
Yes. It works in the browser on iPhone and Android. Phones use a slightly smaller working size to save memory.
