How to get "Clean Up" feature for iPhone?

My understanding was that now in photos there is a new feature to remove objects from a photo and that it downloads automatically. It is called 'Clean Up'. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max with ios18 - how can I get this function?

Because it has not been released yet.


"Clean Up" is a feature of the Apple Intelligence update coming later this year. It s not yet available for any device.


It will only come to iPhone 15 Pro, Pro Max, and all iPhone 16 models when Apple Intelligence is released.

Ok Steve,
Not to be snarky but that was interesting but not exactly helpful.
The question is, how do you do it?
Can and will you please tell those of us that don’t know how to use the feature.
I would love to be able to use it.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge

The person to whom you are replying wasn't saying they were able to access the feature on their iPhone 12. Rather, they were asserting, without evidence or actual understanding, that the iPhone 12 should be able to support the feature. They were wrong.
