Removing background from iPhone photos

You can copy the area, that is circled by the white outline and paste it onto a note or into another document. The circled subject will have a transparent background. You can also save it a sticker, and use it, wherever you want to use a sticker. Just tap the somewhere inside the moving white border to bring up a menu with action, like copy, save sticker, etc.

You're welcome 😊

I forgot to mention - with iOS 17 you can use the saved sticker to add the cut out section directly to a different photo in Photos.

• Open the other photo in Edit mode. Then tap the Markup button . Tap the Add button  to add text, shapes, and more.
• Use Markup on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
• Then click the + in the bottom toolbar and select "Add Sticker" and now place the sticker where you want it.

So I could move the red panda from China to Alaska.

For example, this Red Panda is now saved as a sticker to my list of stickers and my iPhone let me paste it directly into this reply from the paste board.
