Restore a photo with AI, choose 1X, 2X or 4X output, and compare details with the original. Blend the result before downloading PNG, JPG or WebP. Open Restore Image.
Frame the image to restore
Open Restore Image and select Choose images, drag in a supported file, or use the sample. On a phone, open Settings to reach the same controls.
Keep the important content inside the crop frame and choose 1X, 2X or 4X output. Use 1X when you want to review restoration without requesting a larger pixel grid.
A larger image contains more output pixels, but generated detail is not evidence of detail in the original. Keep the source for comparison.
Review the enhancement
Select Start, then compare the result with the original at a useful zoom level. Use the blend control if the full enhancement looks too strong.
Inspect faces, text and fine texture closely. The best-looking strength can differ between regions.

Choose screen or print output
Choose a download format or a print size, then check the displayed pixel dimensions before Download.
Keep the downloaded copy before starting a new task. Refreshing an editor or download page returns to the main tool page; normal Back navigation can restore the current workflow.
Print dimensions, resolution and the source aspect ratio work together. Download again after changing print settings and verify the new file's dimensions.
Common questions
What should I check in the downloaded result?
Print dimensions, resolution and the source aspect ratio work together. Download again after changing print settings and verify the new file's dimensions.
How does Restore Image work?
Upload a JPG, PNG, WebP or HEIC photo, choose 1X, 2X or 4X, then compare and blend the result before downloading PNG, JPG or WebP.
Will the output always be exactly four times my uploaded dimensions?
No. Inputs are prepared at up to 2,048 pixels on the longest side before the selected scale is applied. Check the downloaded dimensions, especially for large uploads.
