“Pixel Studio is the first image generator of its kind. Now you can bring any idea to life from scratch right on your phone – a true creative canvas,” the company said in a blog post announcing the new app.
Pixel Studio app will be pre-installed on the Pixel 9 series
Pixel Studio App competes with Apple’s upcoming Image Playground app as part of Apple Intelligence features with the launch of iOS18. The new image editing app uses Google’s Imagen 3 model and can convert text-based prompts into images. The app also offers on-device AI editing tools, including deleting objects from the frame or repositioning an object.
As announced by Google, the Pixel Studio app will be pre-installed on Pixel 9 devices.
Depending on the prompt, the app also suggests art styles such as film and anime style.
“This is made possible by combining an on-device diffusion model running on Tensor G4 and our Imagen 3 text-to-image model in the cloud. With a UI optimized for easy prompts, style changes, and edits, you can quickly bring your ideas into conversations with friends and family,” Google said in the blog post.
