Testing Nano Banana Pro: 30 Creative Prompts That Show Its True Power

1. Flowcharts & Process Diagrams

If you’ve ever tried explaining something simple — like how to boil an egg — and somehow ended up drawing stick figures and question marks, Nano Banana Pro feels like a gift from the diagram gods.

Give it a sequence, a messy thought, or even a chaotic brain-dump, and it spits out a clean, stylish, almost smugly organized flowchart.

Here are 4 prompts that I found super useful:

• Generate a flowchart titled ‘How to Survive Your Morning’: wake up → snooze alarm → stretch → shower → breakfast → head out. Use soft pastel icons (coffee cup, bed, shower) and clear directional arrows.
• Create a decision tree for planning tonight’s dinner: budget? time? cravings? Include branches like ‘cook at home’, ‘order in’, or ‘go out’; add small icons for money, clock, and food.
• Visualize a Kanban-style “chore tracker” swimlane: lanes for Cleaning, Cooking, Laundry, Emails — each with tasks, little icons (broom, pan, shirt, envelope), and subtle shadows for a relaxed but organized look.
• Make a funnel diagram for managing your inbox: new emails → read → reply / archive → follow-up. Use circular arrows, soft gradients, and tiny people or envelope icons to show the flow.

2. Infographic / Composite Information Graphics

If you want to go beyond pretty pictures and generate deep, technically rich visuals, Nano Banana Pro is surprisingly up for the job. Imagine asking it to create a full infographic that shows how an automatic coffee machine (like a Jura) works — from beans to boiler to your perfect cup.

Because it can reason about structure and layout, Pro can lay out flow diagrams, labeled parts, and visual storytelling in a way that feels both accurate and engaging.

Here are some prompts I think is especially cool:

• Create a detailed infographic of how a Jura-style automatic coffee machine works: show the bean hopper, grinder, scale, water tank, boiler, pump, brew unit, and wastewater path. Use clear labeled icons, flow arrows, and a clean technical‑diagram style mixed with modern infographic aesthetics.”
• Create a detailed infographic of how a smart home heating system works: from thermostat, to furnace or heat pump, to ductwork, to room radiators, showing sensors, control loops, and energy flow. Use icons, arrows, and a clean, technical‑infographic layout.
• Generate an educational infographic diagram about the water cycle in a suburban neighborhood: rain falling, collecting in gutters, flowing to storm drains, seeping into groundwater, and evaporating. Use pastel colors, labeled sections, and smooth flow arrows.
• Design a visual infographic explaining the steps of making sourdough bread: feeding the starter → mixing → bulk ferment → shaping → proofing → baking. Include small illustrations (jar, whisk, oven) and a process flow chart style with a friendly, clean aesthetic.

3. Advertisements / Marketing Assets

Here’s where Banana Pro puts on its suit and tie. With control over lighting, camera angle, and focus, you can generate studio‑quality ads: think lifestyle hero shots, sleek product mockups, or eye-catching billboards.

And because text rendering is much better now, you can actually put readable taglines, multilingual slogans, or product specs inside your image without them turning into gibberish.

Try these prompts:

• Design a clean hero banner for a sustainable fashion brand: an elegant bottle or tote bag, soft natural light, tagline ‘Eco & Chic’, modern serif font.
• Create a billboard layout for an electric motorcycle: sleek bike, city skyline at dusk, neon lighting, bold text ‘Ride the Future’.
• Make a social media ad for a wellness app: calming background, a person meditating on a dock with lake, overlay text ‘Find Your Calm’, fresh pastel palette.
• Generate a magazine spread for a skincare brand: close-up bottle shot, dropper with serum, callouts for ingredients, elegant typography, soft studio lighting.

4. Food / Culinary Illustrations

If there’s something Nano Banana Pro does great, it’s making food look tangible. I’ve tested this: soups with steam, pastries with crumb texture, fruit that glistens — Pro just gets how food sits in real light.

You can lean into fun recipe layouts, cozy kitchen moments, or stylized flat lays that could pass for a gourmet magazine.

Here are 4 prompts to make your mouth water:

• A top-down layout of a breakfast table: pancakes with syrup, berries, coffee mug, butter melting, woven placemat, warm morning light.
• Generate an ultra-realistic dessert platter: chocolate lava cake, macarons, fruit tart, powdered sugar, soft shadows, fine detail.
• Illustrate a rustic Italian kitchen scene: pasta dough being rolled, flour on the table, fresh tomatoes in a bowl, garlic and basil, cozy home lighting.
• Design a recipe infographic for guacamole: steps (cut avocado, mix onion and lime, mash, season), small icons of avocado, onion, lime, bowl; clean layout.

5. Simulated UI / Window / Interface Graphics

Whether you're building an app or just daydreaming about one, Banana Pro is solid for interface design. You can tell it to visualize a dashboard, a login screen, or even a futuristic control panel — and it will lay out buttons, menus, icons, and text in a way that feels realistic.

Because of its control over focus and camera, you can make some parts sharp, let others fade — just like real UI designers do.

Prompts to try:

• Create a desktop app interface: left sidebar with icons (Home, Settings, Profile), main panel showing a project dashboard, clean flat‑design, soft shadows.
• Design a mobile login screen: email and password fields, ‘Log In’ button, background gradient (teal → purple), friendly mascot illustration in the corner.
• Illustrate a smart home control panel: thermostat dial, light switches, security status, energy graph, futuristic but usable design.
• Generate a pop-up modal window notification: rounded corners, header ‘Update Available’, body text, two buttons ‘Later’ / ‘Update’, subtle drop shadow.

6. Memes / Funny Graphics

Don’t let the Pro fool you — this tool still has a sense of humor. Since it can do text really well, you can drop in funny captions, create two‑panel jokes, or mash up random concepts (yes, a banana superhero is totally on the menu).

The best part? The text won’t look like alien scribbles. Pro nailed that.

Here’s what I tried (and laughed about):

• A meme of a cat sitting at a keyboard, caption above: ‘Me at 3 AM’, below: ‘Writing prompts for Nano Banana Pro’, cartoon style.
• Two-panel comic: panel one ‘Expectation’ shows a glamorous AI‑generated character, panel two ‘Reality’ shows a glitchy version, meme font.
• Generate a banana superhero: banana with cape and mask, flying through a city, text ‘Nano Banana to the rescue!’, comic‑book style.
• Distracted boyfriend meme: boyfriend labeled ‘Me’, girlfriend labeled ‘Other tools’, new girl labeled ‘Nano Banana Pro’, classic layout.

7. Character Interaction / Comics

If you’ve ever wanted to draw your own little comic, Pro is surprisingly up for it. You can bring in up to five consistent people or characters from reference images.

That means whether it’s a fantasy scene, a buddy‑cop style comic, or a magical-school moment, your characters don’t keep morphing into random strangers. You get consistency + creativity — a sweet combo.

4 prompts I played with:

• Draw a short comic: two coworkers chatting in a coffee shop, one is holding a laptop, the other a latte. Casual modern style, friendly expressions.
• Fantasy scene: an elf ranger talking to a dragon perched on a cliff. The elf is calm, the dragon is small but wise, twilight sky, castle in the background.
• Create a character sheet of a sci-fi team: a pilot (woman in jumpsuit), a scientist (male with goggles), a robot companion. Three poses each, consistent faces.
• Illustrate a magical school scene: a wizard teacher with a staff, a student reading a floating book, glowing runes, warm candlelight.

8. Fashion / Outfit Fusion

Fashion nerds, rejoice. Pro lets you fuse wildly different styles into one outfit. Want cyberpunk meets traditional kimono? Victorian corsets with futuristic armor? Nature-inspired winterwear but make it sci-fi? Yes, yes, and yes.

Because it supports multiple reference images, the proportions, fabric detail, and character consistency stay strong — it’s not just a collage, it’s a new style concept.

My four go-to prompts:

• Portrait of a person wearing a fusion of cyberpunk and traditional kimono: glowing obi, neon accessories, futuristic fabric, soft portrait lighting.
• Runway outfit: 1920s flapper style meets modern streetwear — fringe dress, sneakers, beaded headband, bold makeup, studio light.
• Steampunk adventurer costume: leather coat, brass goggles, mechanical arm, corset, clockwork details, Victorian vibes, action pose.
• Winter nature-inspired fashion: coat with tree-branch embroidery, leaf-patterned scarf, earthy tones, snowy forest background, soft lighting.
