No app required

Remove image backgrounds on iPhone

You don't need another app for this. FastCutOut runs entirely in Safari, takes HEIC photos straight from your Camera roll, and hands back a transparent PNG — no install, no watermark, no signup for the first few images.

Before and after example

Casual phone photos — fur, whiskers and all — are exactly what the model handles well.

Why skip the App Store

Nothing to install

No download, no account wall, no photo-library permission prompt — the tool is the page you're on.

Native HEIC support

iPhone photos are HEIC by default, and many web tools reject them. Here they upload directly, conversion included.

Same tool everywhere

The page works identically on iPad, Mac and any other device — your quota and account follow the login, not the hardware.

FAQ

iPhone background removal FAQ

Does it work with iPhone HEIC photos?

Yes — HEIC and HEIF files from the Camera roll upload directly, up to 15 MB, without converting to JPG first. The result downloads as a standard PNG that every app understands.

Where does the download go?

Safari saves the PNG to your Downloads in the Files app; from there you can share it into Photos or anywhere else. Depending on your iOS settings, Safari may ask where to save it.

Do I need to install an app?

No. The whole thing runs in Safari (or any iPhone browser) — nothing to install, no photo-library permission to grant, and no account needed for the first few images.

Is it free on iPhone?

Yes — 3 cutouts a day without signing up, no watermark. A free account adds daily cutouts and bonus credits when you need more.
