How to use Image Playground in visionOS 2.4

Image Playground in visionOS 2.4 allows users to easily create fun and unique images from themes, costumes, accessories, and places.

Users can add their own text descriptions, and can even create images in the likeness of a family member or friend using photos from their photo library. The experience is integrated directly into apps like Messages and Freeform, and is also available as a dedicated app for Apple Vision Pro. You can combine up to seven elements to create original images.

Here’s how to create an image:

1. Go to the Image Playground app on your Apple Vision Pro.
2. Tap the “+” icon, then do any of the following:
   • Create an image from a concept: Tap a concept—a theme, costume, accessory, or place.
   • 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 personalized 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 “+” icon, then tap Choose Photo or Take Photo.
   • Change the image style: Tap the “+” icon, then tap Animation, Illustration, or Sketch.
     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 Done in the top-right corner to save it to your gallery.
   To view the image in your gallery, tap the backward pointing arrow icon.

To edit or refine your image in Image Playground:

   • Add an image of a person: Tap the Person button, then choose a person from your photo library.
     To add a person or pet 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 personalized based on the photo you selected rather than the text description.
     Tip: You can also add 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.
     
   • Edit an image of a person: If you already added a person and you want to change the image, tap the people icon, tap Edit, choose a new starting point, then tap Done.
     To change the appearance, tap the people icon, tap Edit, make adjustments, then tap Done.
   • Add a photo—such as an image of a pet, nature, or food: Tap the “+” icon, then tap Take Photo or Choose Photo.
   • Change the image style: Tap the Style button, then tap Animation, Illustration, or Sketch.
     Note: Changing the image style creates a new set of previews.
     
   • Remove a concept: Tap the “-“ icon.
3. When you’re happy with your image, tap Done to save it to your gallery.
   If you’re editing a previously saved image, you’re asked if you want to update it or save it as a new image.
