Create original images with Image Playground on Apple Vision Pro

In the Image Playground app, you can use Apple Intelligence* to combine concepts, text descriptions and people from your photo library to create stylised images within seconds. You can also use Image Playground to create images in Messages, Freeform and more.

Note: Apple Intelligence is not available in all languages or regions.** To access the most recent available features, make sure you’re using the latest version of visionOS and have Apple Intelligence turned on.

Create an image

You can combine up to seven elements to create original images.

  1. Go to the Image Playground app on your Apple Vision Pro.

  2. Tap New Image, then do any of the following:

    • Create an image from a concept: Tap a suggestion, or tap Show More, then tap the Next button to browse themes, expressions, costumes, accessories and places. Tap a concept to include it in your image.

    • Create an image from a description: Tap the “Describe an image” field, enter a description, then tap Done.

    • Create an image of a person: Tap the Person button, then choose a person from your photo library.

      To add a person from Photos, you need to name them in the Photos app. If you provide a description that’s different from the image you use — for example, the name in Photos doesn’t match the name in your description — your image is personalised based on the photo you selected rather than the text description.

      Tip: You can also create an image of a person without using a photo from your library. Tap the Person button, tap Appearance, choose a skin tone and appearance setting, then tap Done.

    • Create an image based on a photo, such as an image of a pet, nature or food: Tap the Choose Photo button, then choose a photo.

    • Change the image style: Tap Style at the top of the window, then tap Animation, Illustration or Sketch. To choose a style from the ChatGPT extension, tap ChatGPT, then tap a style.

      Note: Changing the image style creates a new set of previews.

  3. To see variations of an image, tap the bubble preview, then swipe.

  4. When you’re happy with your image, tap Save in the top-right corner to save it to your gallery.

In addition to using the Image Playground app, you can also use Image Playground features to create original images in apps like Freeform and Messages. See Create original images in Freeform and Create and send original images in Messages.
