Strip brand logos, network bugs, signage, store labels, and print imprints from photos you own or are licensed to edit. Brush the logo and Magic Eraser's AI fills the area behind it.

How to remove a logo from a photo

To remove a logo from a photo, open Magic Eraser on the web, iOS, or Android, upload the image, brush over the logo — including its drop shadow, glow, or outline — and tap Erase. The AI reads the area around the mark and rebuilds the surface underneath in seconds, whether it sits on a flat label, a curved bottle, or fabric. It includes limited free edits after sign-in, and works on JPEG, PNG, and WebP. For a corner logo repeated across a set of photos, brush each instance and run them one by one. Logo removal is a routine editing task when you own the asset or have the rights to edit it: your own old branding, photos of products you sold and want to reuse, archival scans where the lab added a studio mark, or screenshots from your own apps. It is not a way to strip trademark or copyright signals from content you don't own — broadcasting bugs, sports league marks, brand wordmarks on competitors' products, and licensed entertainment screenshots all stay attached to the rights they represent. Use the same standard you'd use in Photoshop: edit only what you have permission to edit.

Remove a logo in three steps

1. 1

   Upload your photo

   Open Magic Eraser on web, iOS, or Android and upload the image you own or are licensed to edit. JPEG, PNG, and WebP are all supported, including large scans and screenshots.

2. 2

   Brush over the logo

   Paint over the entire logo. Cover its drop shadow, glow, or any outline effects — anything that visually belongs to the mark. For repeating logos (corner watermarks on every photo in a set), brush each instance.

3. 3

   Run Erase and check at 100%

   Tap Erase. The AI rebuilds the area in seconds. Review at 100% and check for any leftover edge, glow, or color cast from the logo — touch up that spot if needed before downloading.

Best for

• Cleaning your own old brand logos from photos before a rebrand
• Removing print-lab imprints from scanned family photos
• Erasing your own studio watermark from proofs you've delivered
• Cleaning up screenshots of your own apps or product flows before publishing
• Removing stickers, price tags, or store labels from product photos you own

What logo removal is not

Logo removal does not transfer rights. If a competitor's logo appears on a product you're photographing, removing the logo doesn't entitle you to use the product in your marketing. Broadcast network bugs, sports league marks, and licensed entertainment overlays all represent rights that the original owner controls — removing the visual mark doesn't change who owns the underlying media. When in doubt, use images you own, images licensed for editing, or clean source assets rather than relying on logo removal.

Frequently asked questions

Can I remove a logo from a brand's product photo?

Only if you have the rights to that photo and the rights to use the underlying product in your work. Removing a logo doesn't grant you permission to use the product image; that's a separate licensing question.

Will the AI catch a logo's drop shadow and outline?

It catches what you brush over. If the logo has a glow or shadow, brush across that too, then review at 100% — otherwise you may see a ring around where the logo was.

Does it work on logos on curved or 3D surfaces?

Yes. The AI rebuilds the area based on surrounding context, including curved bottles, fabric, or 3D objects. Heavily textured surfaces (carbon fiber, mesh, brick) may need a touch-up.

What about transparent or semi-transparent logos?

Transparent marks can be easier than opaque logos when the background remains visible, but treat watermark cleanup as a rights-sensitive edit and only work on images you own or are licensed to edit.

How do I remove a logo from a photo for free?

Open Magic Eraser on the web or in the iOS or Android app, upload your image, brush over the logo, and tap Erase. The free tier covers limited logo-removal edits after sign-in. Upload a photo you own or are licensed to edit, clean the mark, and review the export options shown in the app.

Can I remove a logo from a photo on my phone?

Yes. Open Magic Eraser in any mobile browser or the iOS or Android app, load the photo from your camera roll, and pinch to zoom in on the logo before brushing. Zooming in lets you cover the whole mark — and its shadow or glow — without painting over the surrounding design. Tap Erase and the result matches the desktop version.

Will a leftover edge or color ring show after the logo is gone?

It can if part of the mark was left unbrushed — most often the soft outer edge of a shadow or glow. Brush slightly past the visible logo into that halo, run Erase, then zoom to 100% and check the seam. On a busy or textured surface, a second short pass across any faint ring evens out the tone.
