Old prints can be hard to share when faces are blurred, colors have faded, or scans show scratches. CodeFormer.io improves these common problems in your browser and can colorize black-and-white photos. Upload a JPG, PNG, or WEBP image, compare the result with the original using a slider, then download without a watermark. One standard-size restoration is available each day without an account; larger 2K and 4K outputs use paid credits. Results depend on the detail left in the original photo.
