Can old photo restoration fix scratches, tears, and faded colors?

Can I colorize black and white old photos?
Yes. You can use restoration with colorization when you want a black-and-white portrait to feel more lifelike. If you prefer the original vintage look, keep the restored photo in its original tone.
What is the best way to repair blurry old family photos?
Start with the clearest scan or phone capture you have, avoid glare, and upload the full image. The AI can sharpen faces and restore photo detail, but a cleaner source gives better old photo repair results.
