Practical review

Cleanup.photo

Remove unwanted objects, people, text, or watermarks from photos in seconds using a browser based brush tool.

The test, in brief

Partly completed

The task was partly completed.

Only part of the task was completed. The notes below explain what was tried and what remains unverified.

What we tried

Upload a photo and remove an unwanted phone/object with the brush tool; also test handling of an image over the 15 MB limit.

The completion notes disagree

The task outcome is “Partly completed,” but the source completion label says “Main task completed.” Read this result with that discrepancy in mind.

The positives

What worked well

Simple browser based editor, clear brush controls, no signup needed for the tested flow, and processing completed without crashing on supported size images.

Worth knowing

What we noticed

2 observations
  1. Removing the phone left visible blue smears, dark streaks, and unnatural reconstruction around the hand, so the core object removal result was not clean enough to use as is.

  2. An image over the 15 MB limit was accepted and processed to roughly 96% before showing “Image too large,” wasting time instead of validating the file size immediately.

More detail from the test
The removal completed, but the edited area showed obvious blur/smear artifacts around the hand and where the phone had been. A >15 MB image was also allowed to process to about 96% before the size limit error appeared.
