Editing can cover various areas – be it inserting text, removing the background, or adding filters. You will see that you have a variety of options available here.

Another useful feature is the ability to use the image as a reference. This way, you can create four new images that are similar to your original image.

The strength of the input prompt influences the similarity of the new images. By setting the prompt stronger or weaker, you can control whether the reference image or the prompt is given more consideration.

Depending on the setting, you will then receive new images that either follow your original prompt more closely or are more inspired by the reference image.
