Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about the editor, model support, references, and image-to-video workflow.

What is Try Nano Banana?+

Try Nano Banana is an independent browser workspace for AI image generation, prompt-led editing, and image-to-video tasks. It connects the models enabled by the site operator to one consistent workflow.

Is Try Nano Banana an official Google product?+

No. Try Nano Banana is an independent product and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Google. Model availability depends on the providers configured for this workspace.

Can I edit a reference image?+

Yes. The image editor accepts an uploaded reference and sends it with your prompt when the selected model supports image input. A model that only supports text generation may ignore reference-image options.

Which image formats can I upload?+

The uploader accepts common browser image formats such as JPG, PNG, and WebP. The current editor shows the active file-size limit before you upload.

Can I use generated images commercially?+

Commercial rights depend on the selected model provider, your plan, and the rights you hold in uploaded source material. Review the applicable provider and site terms before publishing commercial work.

How does image-to-video work?+

Open the video generator to describe motion, framing, and duration. Available models, including Seedance when configured, are controlled by the workspace and may require a signed-in account.
