Image Guidance lets you provide an image that Photoroom uses as inspiration when generating AI Backgrounds. This makes it easy to create a series of images that look like they were shot at the same location.
For an overview, see What is Image Guidance?

Steps (Android)
To use image guidance:
(Video is edited to show reduced AI-image generation time)
Select the Space you want to work in.
Either create a new design or edit an existing design.
When you have the design open in the editor, continue to the next step.
Select Backgrounds.
Select AI Backgrounds.
[Optional] Use the AI Backgrounds button at the top to change the AI model.
Select + Background.
Select + Customize.
Provide an image.
You can upload an image, take a photo with your device's camera, or use Photoroom to generate an image. Alternatively, Search for images in Photoroom and Unsplash.
We recommend images under 30 MB and up to 5,000 px on widest side for best performance. For details of supported formats, see Supported file formats.
Select one of the backgrounds that Photoroom generates.
Alternatively, select the arrow button to create alternatives.
When you have a background you are happy with, select the image and then select Use image.
[Optional] Use the editor to make further changes to your design.
Select Export to save your design. There are also options to share it.
Select Done.
Repeat the steps to create more designs with a similar AI Background.
Troubleshooting
Background images are not the same
Image guidance is not designed to produce exact matches. The AI creates the background especially for the foreground image, and adapts based on colors, lighting, and other factors. When using image guidance, the backgrounds should be similar, but not identical.
If you need an identical background, you can create an image showing just the background and save it as a template. In a template, the background image is a static image, so when you apply it to your designs, it will always look the same.
Cannot upload image
If you cannot upload your background image, it is likely because:
Image is in an unsupported file format
Use a conversion service or app to convert your image into a Supported file format and try again.
File size is too large
Reduce the size of your image and try again.
App issues
Try closing the app and then reopen it and try again. If that doesn't work, try uninstalling it and then reinstalling it from the App Store.
