How to restore old photos online for free
Old family photographs fade, yellow, and lose detail over time. This tool restores them entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to a server unless you choose to run the optional AI colorization step. Upload a scan or photo of the original print, then adjust exposure, contrast, saturation, warmth, sharpening, and noise reduction until the image looks right. Use the compare slider to check your changes against the original before downloading a full-resolution PNG.
Frequently asked questions
Is this photo restoration tool really free?
Yes. Manual restoration (exposure, contrast, sharpening, denoise, and warm colorize) is completely free with no watermark or account required. AI-powered automatic colorization is an optional add-on that depends on the site owner enabling it.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. All manual adjustments happen locally on your device using your browser's canvas engine. Your photo never leaves your computer unless you specifically click "Run AI Colorize."
What file formats are supported?
You can upload JPG or PNG images, and the restored result downloads as a high-quality PNG file ready to print or share.
