LocalPixRemove watermark does not search the photo for text. You paint, including the faint edge, and MI-GAN (MIT, about 28 MB, from this site at /vendor/migan) fills that region. The long side is capped at 1280 px. A date on sky, wall, or floor is the realistic case. A stamp across a face, or fine print you still need to read, comes back wrong.
Do not use it to strip a copyright line, a stock-photo mark, or an AI-generator watermark from a picture you do not have the right to change. The tool will not do that hunt for you anyway.
Steps
- Open Remove watermark and choose the photo. It is not uploaded.
- Paint the whole date, including the soft shadow around the digits. Leave the rest alone.
- Run the fill. The first time, the model downloads; that file is not your photo.
- If the patch looks smeared, undo is not magic — crop the stamp off instead, or leave it.
FAQ
Will it find every date by itself?
No. You paint the pixels to replace. Unpainted digits stay.
Can I remove a stock watermark this way?
Do not use this to strip a copyright notice or a stock-photo watermark from a picture you do not have the right to change.
Is the photo uploaded?
No. Painting and the fill stay in the tab. The download is a local PNG blob.
