What types of photos can I restore? +
Old family portraits, wedding photos, school pictures, holiday snapshots, and any photo with scratches, fading, water damage, or age-related wear. PhotoBetter works best with photos from the 1920s to 1990s. It can also colorize black and white photos from any era.
Do you keep my photos? +
No. Your photo is permanently deleted immediately after you download it, or automatically within one hour if not downloaded. We never store, share, or use your photos for any other purpose.
Do I need to create an account to restore photos? +
No. You can try for free and buy a single photo without any account. Only credit packs require a quick Google sign-in so your credits are saved across sessions.
