Frequently asked questions
Can AI Photo Restoration fix completely missing faces?
Severe loss is unreliable. The model works best on fading, color cast, and moderate tears.
Will it colorize black-and-white prints?
You can ask for subtle color, but specify natural skin tones to avoid cartoon color.
Should I crop borders first?
Often no—borders help the model see damage. Crop after you like the repair.
How long are files stored?
Free accounts keep images 7 days; paid plans keep them 30 days. History rows remain with an Expired label.
