Use it responsibly

Use photos of people only with their consent. When you share pictures of children publicly, keep school names and addresses out of the frame.

Common questions

Can I use group photos?

Yes. A sharp, well-lit photo where every face is visible works best. If one face changes, try again or use fewer people in the photo.

Will the faces stay the same?

Prompts that use your photo ask the AI to keep faces unchanged. No tool is perfect, so always check the result before you share it.

Does it cost anything?

The prompts are free. The AI app you use may have its own free limits.
