This tutorial covers photo retouching in Aftershoot, starting with JPEG or TIFF import into a new album. The presenter explains how to enter preview mode and apply adjustments to groups such as men, women, seniors or children. Individual selection gives control over a single subject.

The walkthrough describes presets including Anti-aging, Face pop, Hair clean up, Face clean up and Wedding radiance. It then shows how to save custom slider settings as a named preset and choose which group it applies to. Batch sync copies retouch settings to selected images in the album. The presenter also demonstrates acne and freckle sliders, describing the acne adjustment as preserving natural skin texture.

For object removal, the Patch tool lets users set a brush size, paint over a distraction and select Delete Object. Examples include a background bag and a logo on a shirt. If the AI removes a detail the user wants to keep, such as a mole or freckle, the correction tool restores the original in the painted area without undoing the other edits.

The final steps cover the before-and-after toggle and export of either the current image or all selected files. Users choose JPEG or TIFF, set an export path and optionally rename the file. The supplied walkthrough does not establish hardware requirements or whether processing works offline.
