Y después las termino en otro programa ### 3/5 — 無料トライアルがしつこい *2026-02-12, version 3.10* 無料トライアルがしつこい ### 5/5 — Robert’s photos *2026-02-08, version 3.10* Excellent ### 5/5 — Accurate *2026-02-07, version 3.10* This is the one I like, from all the others and keep on renewing my subscription, year after year… ### 5/5 — Just like magic *2026-02-06, version 3.10* This app is so much fun. It really brings the old black and white photos to life! ### 5/5 — Super *2026-02-04, version 3.10* Can’t express how much this app has made people happy. Black-and-white is great but color is better. ### 5/5 — Gracias *2026-02-04, version 3.10* Excelente lo que no sé es cómo guardar mis fotos escaneadas en mi galería de iPhone? ### 5/5 — Impressive *2026-02-03, version 3.10* Love this so easy and great results ### 2/5 — Buon risultato! *2026-01-21, version 3.10* Buon risultato! ### 4/5 — Can be more user friendly *2026-01-20, version 3.10* It is fairly confusing to operate. Generally b&w photos are already on the iPhone or computer and it becomes confusing when before & after are saved as pair. I just want the after effect since I already have the before version. ### 5/5 — Buenísimo *2026-01-18, version 3.10* Le doy color a mis fotos antiguas ! Y después las termino en otro programa ### 2/5 — Hard to select photos *2026-01-08, version 3.10* Once downloaded there seems to be no way or option to open photos on device to colorize. Only the initial photo I processed is showing ### 5/5 — Quick note *2026-01-02, version 3.10* Outstanding ! Just what I was looking for and at no cost ### 5/5 — Colour *2025-12-31, version 3.10* This is the best one I’ve dealt with and the price is reasonable especially for colour and I’m still learning how to get whole photo in focus I rate this a five ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Colorization *2026-05-22, version 3.10* Way off ### 1/5 — Awful colours *2026-02-22, version 3.10* I tried it on images I already knew the colours of and they were awful! ### 1/5 — Deceptive scam *2026-02-02, version 3.10* I thought for sure that I canceled my membership immediately after signing up for a free trial so I could colorize ONE photo of my aunt from her high school yearbook. I was just scanning my transactions from the last month and discovered I was billed $29.99 for a membership through December 2026. Extremely disappointing, buyer beware! ### 1/5 — No mola *2026-01-21, version 3.10* Ahora no puedes entrar si no te suscribes borrando ### 1/5 — Not great *2025-11-13, version 3.10* Like I said it’s not great ### 1/5 — Rip-off *2025-10-22, version 3.9* I paid for this app outright years ago and you have the audacity to change it to a subscription after the fact - well you can SHOVE IT crooks! ### 1/5 — Poor *2025-09-23, version 3.9* Sick and tired of App’s persistent onslaught of requests to “ rate us “ . App’s continuous interruption during its working process and attempts to steer the user to other interests is making it totally abhorrent to use . I will not be renewing my subscription ### 1/5 — Lose your rights *2025-08-08, version 3.9* It appears that this company will have the rights to use your Photos in any which way they desire. I deleted the app. ### 1/5 — Geld weg obwohl 3-Tage Test ausgewählt *2025-07-13, version 3.9* Eins vorneweg, die App an sich funktioniert gut und ich habe einige schöne Ergebnisse erhalten. Jetzt wollte ich erneut ein Foto colorieren, dann stand dort, ich solle ein 3 Tage Test-Abo abschließen, welches danach 31,99€ für das ganze Jahr kostet. Das Geld wurde jedoch sofort abgebucht und das Abo habe ich jetzt bis nächstes Jahr an der Backe. Das geht so nicht. Das ist Betrug. Bei 3-Tagen Test erwarte ich, dass ich das ganze noch kündigen kann, bevor abgebucht wird. ### 1/5 — Things they don’t tell you *2025-06-29, version 3.9* If you have taken a picture of a page that has a few photos on it like you have in a photo album it will only process ONE of them so how do you do the others ? I’m still working on that. Also you can only import one photo at a time to processing - it takes ages when you have 50 to do … and that’s £7.49 a month. Note if this is any different and I’m doing it wrong I was unable to find anywhere that explains how to do it better than I have explained. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Just like magic *2026-08-12, version 3.11* This app is so much fun. It really brings the old black and white photos to life! ### 5/5 — One of the best apps ever *2026-08-04, version 3.11* I like it so much ### 5/5 — Super App *2026-07-30, version 3.11* Genial um alte Schwarz-weiß Fotos aufzumotzen! ### 5/5 — Great software!👍 *2026-07-21, version 3.11* Great software!👍 ### 5/5 — 使用してみて。 *2026-06-14, version 3.10* 白黒からカラー化、とても素晴らしい。 ### 5/5 — RESTORE *2026-06-02, version 3.10* What a cool Color App to RESTORE the lost colors 👍👍 ### 5/5 — Irajfana *2026-05-09, version 3.10* Hi there please review this app for me thank you ### 5/5 — J’aime beaucoup et j’aime un peu moins… *2026-04-17* Dans l’ensemble toutes les fonctions sont correctes. Par contre certaines colorisations « bavent », ou sont trop inégales, trop de rouge souvent. J’adore la fonction d’amélioration des visages. Et oui, malgré cela, je recommanderais cette application/logiciel presque tout en un. **Developer response:** Thank you so much for your kind words. Please note that this is not a person, but a computer algorithm trained on millions of b&w photos. To colorize a photo, the algorithm breaks the scene down into familiar elements(sky, plants, people, etc), and assigns each element with appropriate colors. Obviously, more complex scenes increase the chance to get at least some of the elements wrong. ### 5/5 — Bring color to B&W photos *2026-04-08, version 3.10* Great little app. Bring color to old B&W. Great for Facebook. ### 5/5 — Özöz *2026-03-25, version 3.10* Mükemmel anında gerçekçi bir renklendirme yaptı --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
