Nano Banana prompt questions

Is Nano Banana the same as Gemini?

Nano Banana is the name people use for the image generation and editing model in Google Gemini. The prompt you get works in the Gemini app, in Google AI Studio and through the Gemini API.

Do Nano Banana prompts need a negative prompt?

Usually not. Gemini responds better to saying what you want than to a list of what to avoid, so the negative prompt is left empty unless it really helps.

Can I use it to edit my own photo in Gemini?

Yes. Upload your photo to Gemini and paste the parts of the prompt you want to change, such as the lighting or background, as the edit instruction.
