I'd advise you not use the example of removing a watermark. It makes it seem like you're advertising the app to be used for circumventing photographers' copyright/attribution.


Downloaded this and tried it. As popped up on my second adjustment. Nope. Nope nope. Would rather pay than use adware.


Someone need to make an app that removes ads from apps that remove watermarks...


PiHole does a great job of blocking in-app ads.


Adguard/other providers that allow you to override DNS do this.


My comment was intended as a commentary on the questionable ethics of promoting an app's ability to remove copyright attribution.


I’ve been using Retouch for a long time. It’s $1.99. Worth it many times over. https://adva-soft.com/app-pageTouch.html

Love removing my dog’s leash in otherwise cool photos.


This looks very cool, could be used for doing practical joke, optical illusion type stuff too I'm thinking, thanks for the tip.


You should really make people aware that they are uploading their photos to your server, and provide some sort of privacy policy. This is a total dealbreaker for me.


A little disappointing that is run against a sever not on my phone. The phone ML is pretty awesome.


Great idea, great UI, very intuitive, but unfortunately the AI just doesn’t work that well.


I honestly can't tell what was removed from the second picture(the one of the golden gate bridge).


The photographer's watermark.


Looks like the text “rawpixel” at the bottom left


Nice. You would have a much wider audience if this was a saas website like remove.bg


I was really impressed by remove.bg but hate uploading my pictures to who-knows-where. I looked around GitHub and there are several projects to remove backgrounds from photos but hard to judge the quality without trying them. Most were some python blob with murky or no instructions on setting up. But give it a few more years and I’m sure there will be a gimp plug-in.


Unable to remove my dog from a picture. Maybe after a few versions.


Is it better than content-aware fill in Photoshop?
