Apple has announced that with the release of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia, the iPhone maker will debut Image Playground: a new AI-powered image creation tool that will allow users to create images in seconds.
Apple touts that Image Playground is easy to use and built right into apps including Messages. It will also launch in a dedicated app, perfect for experimenting with different concepts and styles. All images are created on device, giving users the freedom to experiment with as many images as they want.
With Image Playground, users can choose from a range of concepts from categories like themes, costumes, accessories, and places; type a description to define an image; choose someone from their personal photo library to include in their image; and pick their favorite style.
With Image Playground, users can choose from a range of concepts from categories like themes, costumes, accessories, and places. With the Image Playground experience in Messages, users can quickly create fun images for their friends, and even see personalized suggested concepts related to their conversations. For example, if a user is messaging a group about going hiking, they’ll see suggested concepts related to their friends, their destination, and their activity, making image creation even faster and more relevant.
In Notes, users can access Image Playground through the new Image Wand in the Apple Pencil tool palette, making notes more visually engaging. Rough sketches can be turned into images, and users can even select empty space to create an image using context from the surrounding area. Image Playground will also available in apps like Keynote, Freeform, and Pages, as well as in third-party apps that adopt the new Image Playground API.
