Apple's Image Playground: AI-Generated Cartoon Images

What is Image Playground?

Image Playground, part of Apple Intelligence, uses AI to create cartoon-style images from text descriptions. Access it via a dedicated app (icon resembling a white cat or fox) or the Messages app (plus button next to the text box).

How to Use Image Playground

Enter a text prompt (e.g., "a dog blowing out birthday candles"). Refine results with detailed descriptions or choose from Apple's recommendations. Upload photos to generate AI images with added elements (e.g., party hats, backgrounds) and different art styles.

Release Date

Currently available in the iOS 18.2 public beta, with official release expected in December. For other Apple news and updates, check out Apple Boosts iPad Trade-In Values, Best Apple Accessories for Your Holiday Wishlist, and Apple Products: Not So Popular as Gifts?.
