About
A thirty-year-old print has lost three things: contrast has collapsed toward grey, one dye layer has faded faster than the others so the whole frame has a colour cast, and the surface has picked up dust and fine scratches. Photo Revive undoes those three things, in that order.
SCAN A PRINT IN SECONDS
Hold your iPhone over the photo. iOS finds the four corners and straightens out the angle for you, so you get a flat, square scan instead of a snapshot of a photo on a table.
FADE RECOVERY THAT ACTUALLY WORKS
This is the part that matters. Photo Revive measures each colour channel in your image and stretches it back to full range. Because each channel is measured separately, it fixes the fade and the colour cast at the same time. Most washed-out prints come back in one tap.
TUNE IT YOURSELF
• Fade recovery — how far to push the correction
• Dust and scratches — a median pass that lifts specks without flattening real detail
• Sharpen — applied last, so it never amplifies anything the earlier steps introduced
• Brightness, contrast, colour and warmth
SEE THE DIFFERENCE
Drag the handle across the photo to compare before and after, or tap to view the original full-frame. Save to the app's own library, export to Photos, or share it straight to family.
