After launching the editor, the Gemini 3 engine activates automatically, ready to process natural-language instructions.

2. Uploading or Selecting an Image

Users can choose an existing photo from Google Photos or upload an image manually.

Once the image loads, the tool scans it using:

  • Object detection
  • Lighting analysis
  • Background segmentation
  • Face and texture recognition

This enables precise, context-aware editing.


3. Using Text Prompts to Edit Images

The biggest advantage of a Gemini 3-powered editor is conversational editing.

Examples of commands include:

  • “Remove the person standing in the background.”
  • “Make the sky more dramatic with golden-hour lighting.”
  • “Add soft shadows to the right side.”
  • “Replace the background with a modern minimal studio.”


Gemini interprets the instruction, applies edits, and displays multiple variations for selection.

4. Smart Object Removal

Nano Banana Pro uses generative fill and contextual reconstruction to remove unwanted elements.

Steps

  • Select Remove Object.
  • Highlight the area or describe it through text.
