Well done to the ON1 Team, delivering us with these new compelling features and make the use of the software even more efficient for us photographers 😀
Interesting that they look like they were using the Stability Engine for the demo. I just downloaded the update and the generative erase using local (I have a VG GPU) is not very good. In a lot of my photos Perfect Eraser does a better job. Would love to see demo with busy photos (sports with people in the background) and use the local AI.
Used generative ai on a recent kenya safari photo. Tried to replace part of a tree but it put the background as a grass field and woodland not scrub. Went to the undo arrow and nothing happened no undo!!
Yep, the local GenAI erase in the new On1 is total garbage. I gen erased a tree top over lake water it is just replaced the existing tree with some other tree of the their choosing. It did not replace/erase with the water surface like the surrounding area. In another photo at a mountain bike race I tried to remove someone standing in the background. Scrub ground and rocks surrounding. The AI recognized the photo was a bicycle photo and simply replaced the person standing with someone on a bicycle.
Why don't the installers uninstall previous versions like they used to? I can't find V2024 (or 2025) under control panel so I'm not sure how to uninstall it. :(
I tried to use the Generative Erase function and it just DOESN'T Work! What is the status of these features? I guess until 2025 we are only using Beta software?
Please clarify the following question. If I buy the program one time, why do I have to pay extra for the generative tool in case of weak computers. After all, this is a hidden form of subscription.
Great job. That video thumbnail that Dylan made, can that be directly uploaded to UA-cam as a thumbnail for a particular video? if so, I just found my new favorite tool! ;-)
Thanks for the video clip. I don't understand, why I am try working ON1 Photo Draw 2025 (on the trial version), I am not see the Generative Remove AI icon?
My 2024.5 version doesn't automatically update?! I did purchase the 2025 version before the launch. Do i need to update it manually? Don't i lose all the custom presets, catalogs etc? No video about that? And are some major issues like focus stacking finally resolved? (on the PC version) ?
I got my On1 2025. I watched one of the introductory videos and have a request. The light reflection on the glasses distracts and annoys viewers like me. I appreciate you eliminating this light reflection in future videos, say by putting the light higher etc. No offense intended.
Couldn't follow Generative Canvas Extend, in terms of how you determine size of the final print/canvas. It seemed when you hit crop a faint, larger image was in the background, that you brought crop limits out to, but this seemed to pop up, and I didn't see any image size, only the aspect ratio that you set. Thanks.
Hello, How do I get my masking tab in the right column with the layers? So that it doesn't appear everywhere. I work with a Windows machine. Kind regards, Antoine
Hi, When you have a photo in Edit mode, go to Windows/Properties and click on Nest. That will fix the issue for this and all other photos you edit. Have Fun, Jeff
Hey guys, thanks for the drop of the update. I am puzzled tho. What is a stability AI key and where do I find it? using the content aware cropping. and somehow my copy doesn't have the reduce power lines and magical eraser? (2025 19.0.1 (16074))
I installed ON1 2025 Raw. It sounded so good! When I launch it now it goes to "installing assets" and has been "installing assets" for two days now. I'm ready to uninstall it and go back to 2024.5 until 2025 is really ready for prime time.
First thing I've learned about On1 Photo RAW 2025 - After installing the main program at around 6:50pm on my M2 Mac mini I was not able to use it, because most things I've tried to do start another background download. Still waiting just to resize an image .... it's now 9:20pm and the loading bar is at just 50% of AI-Components are installed. That's not a good experience.
Can someone tell me when i send a photo from on1 2025 to pureraw 4 from browse the image saved is sent to on1 2024!!!!! So full of bugs and frustrations
Do either of your new 'color _____' filters work on a Bride's 'white' dress? And, can I change the picker option to include a small matrix of pixels, or am I stuck with a single-pixel-picker?
I've just upgraded to 2025. Now I'm having problems trying to find my photos on my external hard drive but I have never had problems with this before. Has the way this is done changed or something? Very frustrated!
Ok my 2025 thing doesn't do any of this or even show the same menus. There is no menu acriss the top when i click retouch. And actually the export menu from the bottom right of the window is gone as well. I have to use the 3 dots more to export a photo. What have I done wrong? It clearly did not set up the way its supposed to. There is no way to find the tools you list in this video!
Hi, Click on Windows in the menu at the top of the ON1 screen. Then at the bottom section, put a check mark in front of everything, starting with Show Bumper Labels, except for Hide Panels. You should see everything you are talking about. Have Fun, Jeff
When will the new version be available? I pre-ordered it a few weeks ago.. When I opened it yesterday it didn't show anything about it Thanks in advance!
@ON1Photo I installed it but was annoyed and irritated, it didn't automatically replace the older version. Now I have 2 versions of this program on my computer. How do I get it to replace the older version? Thanks in advance!
Installed the plugins in Affinity Photo 2 (using the same method employed with ON1 Photo RAW 2024 MAX with which the plugins operated in Affinity Photo 2). Then tested with Develop and Effects. Affinity Photo showed they were installed, but neither ran when called from Affinity Photo. My system Mac Studio 2023 Apple M2 Max 64 GB Memory macOS Sequoia
Not too interested in all the gee whiz AI fakery to rescue bad photos, but there are some really good new features to explore, especially depth masking and colour control. The range and performance of the masking options in ON1 is so satisfying for the experienced user. I would like to see improvements in the results achieved with some of the more recently introduced new features, like the performance of regional masking in identifying regions (currently very hit or miss depending on the photo) and more user controls over Brilliance AI default settings beyond strength (I generally find a colour intensity or shift change I don't like). Also Keyword AI was oversold when first introduced, but doesn't seem to have to have any improved functionality in the two years since.
Hi Lachlan from Germany When I go into Genertive and try to open it CRASHES all the time can NOT open it. NEW strart with ON1 2025 same again CRASHES Go in to NEW Generative Expand TO get a Foto Larger at one side CRASCH
I don't like that stacks are hidden and neither expandable nor retractable when using filters. 1. I do want to use stacks with filters, even if only a few photos are included. 2. I don't want photos to be hidden without even being able to see that there might be more in a group. It's hard to use this feature this way.
Tried to sign up for an account on your website, the create account button at the bottom of the page doesn't respond, so I'm not able to create an account! I searched for an email address or a contact form to report this issue, nothing found. Is this a legit company?
Looks really good on this video, but it does not work in real life. The Generative AI is, frankly, awful. I try to remove something and it replaces it with a picture of some wedding!(?). Even using the Stability AI function does not remove anything, it only replaces it with something else. I have 32GB RAM and 6GB VRAM with Ryzen 7 processor. This feature needs lots of improvement. Sorry.
very bad experience with Local GenAI. It simply does not erase but replaces one object with another instead of intelligently guess the background. Same with generative expand and even Powerline removal. I had a very different expectation following all the recent sneak peeks and todays launch video. I'm also not going to pay 9$ for an extra StabilityAI. Probably going to cancel my upgrade for now and test LuminarNeo.
Don't expect too much from Luminar Neo. The AI does a mediocre job and is all on line. Perhaps the ON1 team will get theirs to work with a few updates. You will find yourself going ON1 2024 for the AI denoise and sharpening. The AI versions of those on Neo are very slow and give poor results. in fact most of the AI stuff on Neo is quite slow. Neo is nice for a quick review of a landscape photo. I use it almost purely for landscapes and generally to see how something is going to look with a quick bit of tweaking. The ON1 2025 depth masking is much better than the depth treatment on Neo.
I love how when you do these demos you completely ignore and gloss over errors that the software throws up. 6.19 "Bam there we go..." Oh yes the pumpkin in the bottom centre is only orange two-thirds down then a straight line to the bottom colour.
Software is really slow, I feel its really heavy for normal system. AI is in Alpha I guess. Software is not simple at all, having affinity on the other hand makes thing simple. But using this software is relaly difficult. Album doesnt show all images, on clicking fodler randomly selects 1 pic for edit. Apart from adding features should improve core functionality and app usability.
I tried the local generative AI and it makes my blood boil, so tremendously stupid. 😡 Can't get it to simple erase an object, it swaps the selected object with differend kinds of dogs and men with distorted faces. I don't know why the local AI thinks I want to insert strangers in my family photo. It doesn't erase a person, it swaps it with a horror creature. It looks like a refund.
I've seen the same thing. Something is not erased, like the photo bomb example shown here, but the selected item is simply replaced with something similar from their database.
same happened to me, i tried to eliminate one of two people in a photo and it created a "monster", however I applied the AI to the "monster" and it cleared completeley, basically the AI needed two runs at it
Looking forward to the summary of all the developments.
You guys never cease to amaze and entrance with your updates - thanks a ton!
So excited to try new features!
Well done to the ON1 Team, delivering us with these new compelling features and make the use of the software even more efficient for us photographers 😀
Hi, just one question. Why do my photos only render sharp when I zoom 100%?. When I open them without zooming, there's a lack of sharpening.
Thanks
same , and the colour change , it makes it hard to choose photos from burst shots

Used generative ai on a recent kenya safari photo. Tried to replace part of a tree but it put the background as a grass field and woodland not scrub. Went to the undo arrow and nothing happened no undo!!
Yeah, and Stability isn't cheap. $90 a year for the lowest, which is more than the upgrade price for On1 2025. Disappointed.

Thanks. I've been stacking. It's a great feature I never new I needed until now.

Can't wait to begin using Photo RAW 2025.
Can I use the Stack option along with the "b" key to send the entire stack to the Album, then pick the best one from within the Album?

Yes, you will need to install version 2025 and the presets should transfer over.

I just hope that unlike previous major releases, performance and stability don't plummet to the point of making the app unusable.
It's solod!

Reach out to customer support to troubleshoot the installation issue. Sometimes a simple reboot of the app will do the trick
@@ON1Photo Have done so twice. No help. I have restarted ON1 and rebooted my computer (Windows) twice. Thanks
Can you tell me how to activate the stability-AI feature and what additional costs are involved?
yes you have to buy credits

Any improvements in the speed? Takes too long, and I have good computer hardware.

It has to be updated as fast as ON1 can and I say VERY FAST
There is a depth mask tool yet it hasn't been integrated into a depth of field blur effect it would be nice..
Still can't disable a mask temporarily
When I try and use eraser feature it says need 4 mg bites of RAM... I have 32???
maybe it needs more gpu memory as generative AI uses videocards
Once you start using generative AI, you can't really call it a photo anymore, it's just an image.
Thank you Captain Obvious. You know where you are, aren't you? Isn't the same rule applies to non-generative erasers?
I don't like that stacks are hidden and neither expandable nor retractable when using filters.
1. I do want to use stacks with filters, even if only a few photos are included.
2. I don't want photos to be hidden without even being able to see that there might be more in a group.
It's hard to use this feature this way.
Thanks for the feedback, we sent it over to Dan.
Resize AI results are horrible blocky. I (still) have to use imageupsacaler - which makes great results. Is AI in ON1 Photo RAW 2025 in Alpha state?
I just updated to 2025 but I see no Generative Erase AI icon, instead I see a Healing Brush icon?
click on healing brush, go to the top (hidden) tool menubar, open the rolldown on the left, there you will find the generative eraser tool.
