Bring old photos back

Restore Old Photo: bring memories back. Restore Old Photo is made for prints that have been through a lot. It takes out scratches, dust, stains and creases, repairs fading, sharpens faces in a natural way and colorizes the picture with realistic colors that suit the era it was taken in. The recipe tells the AI not to change anyone's features, so your grandparents still look like themselves, only clearer. Where detail is truly lost, AI has to guess, so look closely before you share and keep your original scan next to the restored copy.

What you get

• Clears scratches, dust, stains and creases
• Repairs fading and sharpens faces naturally
• Adds realistic color that suits the photo's era
• Written not to change anyone's features
