Apple’s iOS 27.2 adds SynthID watermarks to Image Playground creations and some images edited with Apple Intelligence.

  • SynthID is a Google-created watermarking tool that embeds identifying signals at the pixel level rather than adding metadata.
  • Image Playground creations and images edited with Extend or Reframe were reported to carry SynthID watermarks.
  • For Clean Up edits, watermarking depended on edit size; the iPhone has no built-in SynthID detector, and the article points users to Google’s SynthID Detector website.
