Frequently Asked Questions

Does it change my original photo?
No. The part of the result that was your photo is your photo, at its own resolution. Only the new space around it is painted.
How much can it add?
Any of the shapes, plus up to twice the size with the Extra room slider. Large extensions are painted in two or three steps, so they take a little longer.
Can I tell it what to add?
Yes. Type it under What goes in the new space, for example more sky or a sandy beach. Leave it empty and the AI continues what is already there.
Which shape do I need for Instagram, TikTok or YouTube?
9:16 fits Stories, Reels and TikTok, 4:5 and 1:1 fit Instagram posts, and 16:9 fits YouTube and desktop wallpapers.
How long does it take?
Usually two to four minutes. Bigger extensions take a little longer.
