Use Retouch to remove unwanted areas from backgrounds on your designs. Select Retouch, draw over the areas you want to remove, and let the AI work its magic. It will remove the unwanted area and fill in the space so that it blends with the rest of your design.
Example:
Let's say you have a photo of a man on a beach and there is a boat in the background (image 1). You want to remove the boat. You use Retouch on the background to draw over the boat (image 2). Photoroom removes the boat and blends the background pixels around it to create a realistic background (image 3).
Note: To delete an entire background, see Remove a background.
