Here are some examples of ways people have enjoyed using restyle.

Remove unwanted items and add some flair

Easily restyle your photos and videos in IG Stories, and make your content your own by removing or adding elements. With the ‘remove’ feature in restyle, you can get rid of unwanted elements from the background of your photos. With the ‘add’ and ‘change’ features, you can easily prompt Meta AI to create your vision, whether it’s asking to change your hair color for a fun twist, adding a crown or some balloons to celebrate your best friend’s birthday story post, or adding a sunset background to your selfie – restyling your images can make those small edits that make all the difference.

Show off creativity with preset effects

Experiment with your fashion by using preset effects like ‘sunglasses,’ ‘biker jacket’ or even ‘black clothes’ to transform your outfits. Or you can change the whole style of the image itself to make it look like a watercolor or film noir. Better yet, use these presets as a starting point to spark creativity. You can apply any effect and then type in additional changes you want to make to edit your content in seconds.

There are also several preset effects for short videos. You can transform the style, background, and outfits in your videos. You can turn your whole video into an underwater landscape, add fire and flames all around, or even add snow.

How to write great prompts

We want to give you the creative freedom to edit your photos exactly how you want. The more specific and detailed your prompt, the better Meta AI can match your vision.

Some things to consider:

• Subject (like “add a crown on top of the girl’s head”)

• Lighting and mood (like “add dramatic lighting”, “have light from just a single paparazzi flash”)

• Composition needs (like “in the bottom left corner”, “in the background”)

• Style (like “make photorealistic”, “film noir style”)

• Location (“in outer space”, “in Paris”)

Use the Add Yours sticker to start a trend

Using Add Yours stickers will make it easy for friends to use the same edits you made. You can get inspiration from your friends or start your very own viral trend! If you want others to be able to make the same edits, apply an Add Yours sticker, which you can access by swiping up on your restyled image before sharing to your story.

And if you see an image that was restyled with an Add Yours sticker, you can click on Add Yours, select the image you want restyled from your camera library, and then post. Keep that Add Yours sticker on so more and more friends can hop on the trend. 

It’s free and easy to restyle your photos and videos, right in the app you’re already using. Share with your friends and followers in your story or share more privately in DMs.
