Open Remove Background from your dashboard, then drag an image into the upload area or choose one from your device. You can also paste an image straight from your clipboard.
Check the preview, then select Remove Background. DropBG uploads the image, finds your subject and removes everything behind it. When it is done, drag the handle on the result to compare it with the original.
Select Download PNG to save the transparent image, or Save to My Images to keep it in your history.
Choose Get Started on the home page and enter your name, email address and a password. We send a verification link to confirm the address belongs to you.
Open the link in that email to activate your account. If it does not arrive within a few minutes, check your spam folder or use Resend verification email on the confirmation screen.
Every account starts on the Free plan, which includes 2 background removals each calendar month, standard-resolution downloads up to 1,024 pixels and a personal image history.
You can upgrade at any time from Billing & Plans when you need more removals or full-resolution downloads.
DropBG accepts PNG, JPG, JPEG and WebP images. HEIC photos from some phones need to be exported as JPG first, which most phones do automatically when you share an image.
Files can be up to 10 MB on the Free plan and up to 25 MB on Basic, Pro and Business.
On the Pro and Business plans, open Remove Background and switch to Bulk upload. Drop up to 20 images, then select Process to work through the queue one image at a time.
Each image uses one removal from your monthly allowance. When the batch finishes you can download every result or save them all to My Images in one step.
DropBG analyzes your image to identify the main subject, such as a person, a product or an animal. It then separates that subject from everything behind it and refines the edge, including hair and soft detail.
The background is replaced with full transparency, so your result works on any color, layout or design.
Choose photos with one main subject that is in focus and fully inside the frame. Higher resolution images produce crisper edges.
Soft, even lighting helps with hair and fine details. Busy backgrounds that share colors with your subject are harder to separate cleanly.
After processing, select Download PNG. The file keeps a transparent background, so it can be placed on any color in your design tool, store or presentation.
You can download any saved image again later from My Images or from its detail page.
On the Free plan, downloads are resized so the longest side is at most 1,024 pixels, which suits web and social use.
Basic, Pro and Business download at full resolution, matching the size of the image you uploaded.
My Images keeps every result you saved. Search by file name, filter by status, sort by date and switch between grid and list views.
Select several images to download or delete them together, or open an image to compare it with the original.
Each plan includes a number of background removals per calendar month: Free 2, Basic 100, Pro 500 and Business 2,000. Your allowance resets on the first day of every month and unused removals do not roll over.
Failed attempts do not count toward your allowance. You can see your current usage in Usage, or in the sidebar of your dashboard.
Open Billing & Plans and choose a plan. Upgrades take effect right away and your new monthly allowance is available immediately.
Yearly billing costs 20% less than paying monthly. You can switch between monthly and yearly billing from the same page.
Go to Billing & Plans and select Cancel Subscription. Your plan remains active until the end of the current billing period, then your account moves to the Free plan.
Your image history stays available after you cancel, and you can resume your subscription before the period ends.
Scroll to Payment history in Billing & Plans and select Invoice next to any payment to download it.
Open Settings, then Profile. Edit your details or select Change avatar to upload a new picture, then select Save Changes.
In Settings, open Security to change your password. You will need your current password to set a new one.
The Active sessions list shows every device signed in to your account. Sign out of a single device, or sign out of all other devices at once.
In Settings, open Account to export your account data as a JSON file. From the same page you can permanently delete your account and image history.
Make sure the file is a PNG, JPG, JPEG or WebP image and within your plan file size limit. Very large phone photos can exceed the limit; exporting at a smaller size usually helps.
If the upload still fails, refresh the page and try again, or try a different browser.
Edges can be less precise when the subject and background share similar colors, when the photo is blurred, or when there are several subjects.
Try a sharper photo with one clear subject. If a result failed completely, it does not use a removal from your allowance.
When you have used all of your monthly removals you can still view and download everything in your history. Upgrade from Billing & Plans to keep processing right away, or wait for your allowance to reset on the first of the month.
