Erasing a background is useful. But extracting cutouts from images is even more useful. Could you use your algorithm to parse an image into layers?

@lew42dotcom cool idea, I'll have to think about it...

Some more details for the technical minded people: The used algorithm is based on PatchMatch, one of the best known in-painting-algorithms (a variant of it is also used in Photoshop). I implemented the algorithm in Renderscript, which gives a massive speed boost over plain Java. Contact me if you have any questions.

Tried this app with a photo and it didn't work at all, it left a mess where the object was. Tried a free alternative on the same photo and it worked to perfection. Uninstalled this one immediately.

Pros:

None really.

Cons:

Didn't work.

Might help to consult an app designer, but it works impressively.

Pros:

It works

Cons:

Could use a style guide

@krishnade Thanks for giving it a try! There were some problems regarding the permission of third-party gallery apps. Should be fixed now, can you update?

@r_follador From my initial tests it was really fast and intuitive - I need to check out your tutorial. One thing I could not work out is where I see 'open recent projects' will it hold past edits on the phone in the app as I could not see how to delete?

@krishnade It will only hold the last edit, in case you close it. There's no way yet to save multiple edits.

Thank you for your review. I'm thinking about including a zoom insert while painting to allow for finer handling.
