Photo AI Object Removal: Samsung vs iPhone vs Browser (Why I Built a Device-Agnostic Tool)

Hey IH community,

A few weeks ago I shared how ObjectRemover can handle up to 50-second videos with solid temporal consistency. Today I want to talk about something equally frustrating — photo object removal.You’ve probably seen the viral comparison (like the one from@Rainmaker1973): same photo, Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra AI erase vs iPhone AI erase… and the results look noticeably different.That’s exactly why I expanded ObjectRemover to support still images (JPG, PNG, WebP).

The Problem with Phone AI Erasers

• Different OEMs use different inpainting models

• Results are device-locked and inconsistent

• Usually only “erase”, no clean extraction option

• You lose control over original files and quality

What ObjectRemover Now Offers for Photos

• Works in any modern browser (no phone, no install)

• Remove unwanted objects or Extract subjects with transparency

• Supports up to 4096px resolution and 20MB files

• Same natural language prompt workflow as video (“remove the person on the right”, “extract the product only”)

• One account & credit system for both video and photo

Here’s the full comparison and test I wrote:

The goal is simple: give creators a reliable, device-independent way to clean up photos — whether it’s removing photobombers, logos, or extracting assets for compositing.Would love to hear your experience:

• Do you still rely on your phone’s built-in AI eraser?

• What’s the biggest pain point when cleaning photos for work?

Looking forward to your thoughts!
