How to change a photo's background color
Drop a photo of yourself or any subject — the tool automatically detects and removes the background using an in-browser AI model, then fills it with the solid color you choose. Pick from White, Light Blue, Red, Blue or Grey, and download the result as a PNG.
Matching common exam photo requirements
Most exam and government photo specs — passport applications, SSC, UPSC and similar forms — call for a plain white or light-colored background with no shadows or patterns. Select White, tap Download, and you have a compliant background without needing a studio backdrop or photo editing software.
Switching colors without reprocessing
Once the background is removed, you can tap between color swatches and see the result update instantly — the AI detection only needs to run once per photo, so trying White, then Blue, then Red costs nothing extra.
Change Your Photo's Background Color — No Studio, No Editor
A plain, solid-color background is one of the most common requirements across passport applications, exam forms and ID photos, and getting one without a studio backdrop usually means fighting with photo editing software. This tool removes your photo's existing background automatically using an in-browser AI model, then fills it with a solid color of your choice — White, Light Blue, Red, Blue or Grey — and the whole process runs on your own device.
Built For Exam and ID Photo Requirements
Passport photos, and exam portals like SSC and UPSC, commonly specify a plain white or light background with no shadows, gradients or patterns behind the subject. Selecting White gives a clean, evenly filled background that matches this kind of requirement without needing a physical white backdrop or professional lighting — just a reasonably clear photo of the subject to start from.
Clean Edges, Not Just a Rough Cutout
Automatic background removal can leave a faint colored fringe around hair and edges when the result is placed on a plain background, because the AI's edge detection is naturally a little soft. This tool tightens that edge before filling in the new color, so the boundary between subject and background reads as a clean line rather than a visible halo — important for a photo that has to pass a human or automated compliance check.
Private, In-Browser AI Processing
The background-removal model downloads once (a few megabytes) and is cached by your browser after that, so every later use is instant. Your photo is never uploaded — detection, background removal and recoloring all happen locally on your device using your browser's own processing power.
Frequently asked questions
Is my photo uploaded to change its background color?
No. The AI background removal and recoloring both run entirely in your browser — your photo is never sent to a server.
Which background color should I use for a passport or exam photo?
White is the most common requirement across passport applications and exam portals like SSC and UPSC — check your specific form's instructions, but White is the safest default.
Can I try different background colors without re-uploading my photo?
Yes — once the background is removed, tap any color swatch and the preview updates instantly. The AI detection step only needs to run once.
Will there be a colored fringe or halo around my hair or shoulders?
The tool tightens the detected edge before filling in the background color specifically to reduce fringing, though very fine or flyaway hair can still show minor softness — a photo with clear, even lighting gives the cleanest result.
What image formats can I use, and what do I download?
JPG, PNG and WebP photos are accepted as input, and the result downloads as a PNG with your chosen background color filled in.
