The best free AI virtual try-on for shopping is Google's own, built into Search and Shopping in 18 countries including India, Brazil, the UK and the US: you upload a photo of yourself and see clothes from product listings on it. For trying any garment photo on any picture, Magic Hour gives 3 free try-ons a day without a watermark, and Krea offers its clothes changer free without sign-up. Every one of them says the same thing in its own words: the result is an approximation. It shows how a look might read, not how a garment will fit.
On 8frame a try-on is an edit from two references, your photo and the garment, from 6 credits an image.

Third-party facts from the vendors' own pages, fetched 2026-10-27.
How we picked
The pages that come up first for this query are mostly vendor tool pages with an upload box on the first screen, plus a couple of top-six lists that rank their own app first. None had a comparison table, and only the tool pages answered the three questions people actually ask: is it free, is there a watermark, can I use it commercially. We read each tool's own page for those answers, dated them, and added the photo rules, which only Google spells out.
The picks
Google try-on: free for shopping, with clear photo rules
Google's Shopping help page sets out who can use it: you must "Be at least 18 years old" and be in "Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, UK, or the US." The photo must be "a full-body image from head to toe or a selfie, with no other people", and the page lists "Upload photos of children" among the things not to do.
It is the only tool here that states its privacy terms on the same page: "Google does not collect or store any biometric data during this experience, nor is your photo used for training purposes." And it is candid about the output: "it's an approximation and may not reflect body shape, personal features, or product details with perfect accuracy." "Lingerie, bathing suits, and accessories aren't supported."
Google's try-on works on products in its shopping results. You cannot bring your own garment photo, so it is for shopping, not for making images.
Magic Hour: a daily free allowance, no watermark
Magic Hour's try-on page says "You get 3 free try-ons daily", with "No signup required", and "No watermark on virtual try-on photo results for all users." Beyond the free ones, "each try-on uses 25 credits." Commercial use needs a purchase: "Subscriptions and credit packs permit commercial use of outputs." It is the clearest free option if you want to try a specific garment photo on a specific person photo.
Krea: free with no account
Krea's clothes changer page says "Completely Free - No Catch, No Sign-Up" and "Try on as many outfits as you want, completely free." Commercial use is for brands "with the purchase of a subscription." The page says nothing about watermarks, so check an export before relying on it.
FASHN: built for fashion brands, a small free start
FASHN says "Every new account starts with 10 complimentary credits", and "Most tools start at 1 credit per image." Basic is $19 a month, or $16 a month billed yearly, for 200 credits a month. Its API plans list a commercial use licence. FASHN is aimed at brands producing catalogue images, so the free credits are a trial rather than a free plan.
8frame: two references, one edit
On 8frame you put the person photo and the garment photo on the canvas and connect both to an image model as references, then prompt the change: "the person from the first image wearing the jacket from the second image, same pose, same background, same face". Prices per image:
| Model | References | Credits per image |
|---|---|---|
| Seedream 5 Lite | up to 14 | 6 |
| Nano Banana 2 (1K, the Nano Banana default) | up to 10 | 11 |
| Nano Banana 2 (2K) | up to 10 | 17 |
| Nano Banana Pro (1K or 2K) | up to 10 | 21 |
A credit is about $0.01 at pack rate. We have not measured how faithfully each model keeps a face or a print, so compare two of them on your own photos: five tries on each of Seedream 5 Lite and Nano Banana 2 cost 85 credits, about $0.85. Every plan's output is watermark-free, commercial use is cleared on paid plans, and the photos stay on your own board, not in a public feed.
Where 8frame goes beyond a single try-on: a whole look on one board (top, trousers, shoes as separate references), the same outfit across several poses, and then motion. A finished still can be the first frame of a short clip, and Clips has a fashion preset to start one from.
What a try-on image cannot tell you
Fit and size. The model draws the garment onto the body in the photo. It does not know the garment's measurements, the fabric's stretch or your size. Google says its result "may not reflect body shape, personal features, or product details with perfect accuracy." Use a size chart for size.
Exact print and colour. Patterns, logos and small text on a garment are where generated images drift first. Compare the try-on with the product photo at full size before you judge.
Your face. Edits can change a face subtly. If the point is to see yourself, check that the person still looks like you; if it does not, try again with a clearer, front-facing photo.
The photo rules worth following everywhere
Google writes rules the others do not publish, and they make sense on any tool:
- Use a photo of yourself, or one you have permission to use.
- No photos of children.
- One person in frame, full body or a clear selfie, good light, plain background.
- No real people's photos for commercial try-ons without a signed release. For a brand catalogue, use models who agreed to it.
Tips for a better result
- Shoot the person straight on, arms slightly away from the body, in fitted clothing, so the model can see the body shape.
- Use a flat-lay or a mannequin shot of the garment, the whole item visible, on a plain background.
- Match the light. A garment shot in daylight on a person shot indoors at night looks pasted on.
- Say what must stay the same in the prompt: face, pose, background, hair.
- Change one item at a time. Top first, then trousers, so you can see which change caused a problem.

FAQ
What is the best free AI virtual try-on? For shopping, Google's try-on in Search and Shopping, if you are 18 or over and in one of its 18 countries. For trying your own garment photo, Magic Hour gives 3 free try-ons a day with no watermark, and Krea's clothes changer is free without sign-up.
Is Google's virtual try-on available in India? Yes, India is on Google's list of 18 countries, along with Brazil, Indonesia, the Philippines, the UK and the US, among others. You must be at least 18.
Does virtual try-on show the right size? No. Every tool here produces an approximation of how the garment looks, not how it fits. Use the brand's size chart.
Can I use a photo of someone else? Only with their permission, and never a photo of a child. Google's own rules say the same.
Can I use AI try-on images in my shop? On Magic Hour and Krea, commercial use needs a purchase; FASHN lists a commercial licence on its API plans. On 8frame, commercial use is cleared on paid plans. Either way, the person in the photo must have agreed.
