Nano Banana

Nano Banana is a powerful AI image editing and generation tool developed by Google. It understands your text commands, performs precise local edits on images, or creates entirely new images from scratch, while maintaining overall visual harmony and style consistency. Think of it as an intelligent design assistant that understands your creative ideas.

Gemini is Google's foundational AI model series, like the engine that powers a car. Nano Banana is the nickname for image generation features derived from Gemini models—typically referring to the standard version based on Gemini 2.5, officially called Gemini 2.5 Flash Image. Nano Banana Pro is the advanced version based on the more powerful Gemini 3 model, officially called Gemini 3 Pro Image. In short, Nano Banana is the application, and Gemini is the underlying technology.

Nano Banana's biggest strengths are its powerful editing capabilities and consistency. Compared to many tools focused on 'generating from scratch,' Nano Banana excels at modifying existing images and maintaining consistent character or object features across multiple edits. Additionally, its Pro version leads most similar tools in generating clear text within images.

You can use Nano Banana through various channels, most commonly through Google's Gemini application (web or app). Enter your command in the dialog box, such as 'draw me a cat' or upload an image and instruct 'change the background to a beach,' and you can start creating. Some Google products (like Google Slides) also integrate this feature.

The basic version of Nano Banana is usually free to use, but may have some usage limits. The more professional Nano Banana Pro version requires a Gemini Advanced subscription or access through other paid services (like API calls from Google AI Studio). Many platforms also offer free trial credits for first-time users.

Nano Banana supports common image formats such as JPG, PNG, WEBP, etc. For best editing results, we recommend uploading high-resolution original images.

Yes. You can use Nano Banana through the Gemini app on your phone or via third-party websites with responsive design, creating anytime, anywhere.

A good prompt is key to getting your ideal image. Follow this structure: Subject (clearly describe what you want to draw, e.g., an orange cat wearing a spacesuit), Scene (describe the background environment, e.g., walking on Mars surface), Style (define the artistic style, e.g., Pixar animation style, cinematic, watercolor), Composition & Lighting (specify angle and lighting effects, e.g., low angle shot, soft light at dusk). For editing, instructions should be direct, such as 'change the sky to a starry night.'

This is Nano Banana's strength. Try these methods: Use reference images (upload clear front and side photos of the character), Lock features (emphasize in your prompt 'keep the character's facial features, hairstyle, and clothing exactly the same as the reference'), Edit incrementally (avoid overly complex modifications at once, make adjustments step by step).

Standard Nano Banana generates images typically at 1024x1024 pixels, sufficient for most web applications. Nano Banana Pro supports higher resolutions up to 2K or even 4K, suitable for printing or professional design scenarios.

This depends on the specific terms of the service platform you're using. Typically, images generated through Google's official services (like paid Gemini Advanced or API) allow commercial use, but you need to carefully read and follow their latest usage policies. Free or third-party platforms may have different regulations.

Yes. Developers can access the Gemini API through Google AI Studio and Vertex AI platforms, integrating Nano Banana's image generation capabilities into their own applications or services.

Possible reasons include: Poor original image quality (if your original image is low resolution or blurry, the edited result will be affected), Extreme prompts (requesting overly complex or drastic changes at once may cause detail loss), Export settings (make sure you select the highest quality option when saving). Solution: Use high-resolution original images and break complex edits into multiple simple steps.

This may be because: Vague prompts (AI struggles with subjective instructions like 'make it look better'—use more specific descriptions), Contradictory instructions (e.g., 'darken the background but keep it bright' will confuse the AI), Spelling or grammar errors (check your prompts carefully). Solution: Keep prompts simple and precise, focus on one modification at a time. Use masking features to limit the editing area.

AI image generation requires significant computing resources. It's normal for it to take 10 to 30 seconds. During peak network times, processing may take longer—please be patient.

If generation fails, most platforms will automatically refund your consumed credits or allow you to regenerate. Check your network connection, or try modifying your prompt and submitting again.
