Photoroom has a wide range of editing features that you can use to customize your designs. There is so much you can do, from changing colors to adding new backgrounds and text.

Here, we provide a quick overview of the main free editing features and explain where you can find instructions on how to use them.

The main free editing features are:

When you import a new image, Photoroom automatically removes its background.

If Photoroom has removed too much or too little of your background, use the Cutout feature to edit it. Cutout lets you restore some of the original background or remove more of it.

To learn how to use cutout, see Add and remove parts of an image with Edit Cutout.

Note: If you want to restore the entire background from the original image, it is quicker and easier to use the original background template.

When you have imported an image, the next step is to choose a template. A template is a pre-made background and it may also contain other images and text.

You can choose a template from the Photoroom library or use one of your own.

To learn about using templates, see Templates.

When you have applied a template, Photoroom opens your design in the editor. Your design has at least two layers:

Your design could have many more layers, depending on which template you use. Each layer contains different parts of your design. For example, you could have a background layer, a layer for a foreground object, and a layer for some text.

Every layer has settings for styling the objects on that layer. This is where you can make changes to the color and apply effects such as shadows, outlines, and blurring.
