Nano Banana is an advanced artificial intelligence image generating and editing tool developed by Google, officially known as Gemini 2.5 Flash Image. It allows users to edit and create images using simple natural language text prompts, enabling complex and photorealistic edits such as hairstyle changes, background adjustments, and character consistency across multiple images. It has gained popularity for creating 3D figurine-style images from photos, leading to a viral social media trend where people transform selfies and other pictures into toy-like 3D figures. Its key features include seamless scene blending, multi-image editing, consistent character detail preservation, and the ability to generate photorealistic outputs very quickly. Nano Banana is integrated into Google's Gemini app, Google AI Studio, and Vertex AI, attracting millions of users since its public launch in August 2025. The tool is especially popular for creating social media content, AI influencers, and marketing images without needing traditional design tools or photographers.
