Online text eraser

Erase text from image like a digital eraser

Using the eraser

Erase text from an image in 3 steps

  1. 01

    Choose the picture

    A scanned worksheet, a diagram from your notes, a greeting card, or a photo — PNG and JPG both work.

  2. 02

    Mark what to erase and pick an eraser

    Tap the words or drag over a group of labels. In Text Style choose Sample color for paper, Smart fill for photos, or Brush repair for handwriting.

  3. 03

    Erase, check, save

    Apply with an empty input. Zoom in to check the edges, undo if needed, and save the cleaned image.

How it erases

Three erasers for three kinds of background

Erase Text From Image is an online text eraser with more than one tip. Instead of painting a white box over the words, it removes them and rebuilds what's underneath, using the method that suits the background.

Sample color — for paper and flat fills

Worksheets, diagrams, and cards usually have an even background. Sample color reads the surrounding tone and fills the letters with it, leaving no smudge.

Smart fill — for photos and gradients

When text sits on wood grain, food, or a gradient, Smart fill reconstructs the texture from nearby pixels instead of using one flat color.

Brush repair — for handwriting and leftovers

Pen strokes that drift outside the detected box, or loopy handwriting OCR can't read, can simply be painted over by hand.

Why use this image text eraser

01

Erase a whole set of labels

Drag across several labels and erase them in one pass — handy for diagrams with five or more callouts.

02

Leader lines stay put

Only the selected words are erased, so arrows, leader lines, and blanks remain for students to fill in.

03

Handles handwriting

Neat handwriting is often detected; anything else can be wiped with the brush.

04

Zoom in to inspect

Pinch or use the zoom buttons to check the erased edges before you save.

05

Step back anytime

Every erase can be reversed with the Undo button or ⌘Z / Ctrl+Z.

06

Print-ready output

Save a full-resolution PNG, ready to print or share, with no watermark.

Help

Erase text from image — help & answers

01How do I erase text from a picture online?+

Open the picture, select the words, choose an erase mode in Text Style, leave the input empty, and apply. Then save the PNG.

02Which eraser works best on a scanned worksheet?+

Sample color. Paper is close to a single tone, so filling with the surrounding color gives the cleanest result.

03Can it erase handwriting from a photo?+

Clear handwriting is often detected automatically. If it isn't, switch to Brush repair and paint over the pen strokes.

04Will erasing labels also remove the lines in my diagram?+

No. Only the selected text regions are erased; leader lines and arrows outside them stay in place.

05I erased too much — can I go back?+

Yes. Press Undo or ⌘Z / Ctrl+Z to restore the previous state, then try a smaller selection.

06Do I need an account to save the result?+

No. Saving is free and needs no sign-up.
