You can remove scratches, smooth artifacts, sharpen blurry details, and recover natural colors. All inside getimg.ai, no external tools needed.

Restoring a Photo Using the Main Prompt Box

Step 1. Add the Image You Want to Restore

Open the Content Generator. You can then upload or select the photo you’d like to restore in any of these ways:

• Click the file with a plus icon (📄➕) in the prompt box and choose your image from the Uploaded tab (or upload a new one).
• Drag and drop it into the prompt box from your Content Generator gallery.
• Or hover over an image in the Content Generator, click ⋯, and choose Use image.

This attaches your photo as a reference for editing.

Step 2. Write Your Restoration Prompt

In the prompt box, describe what you’d like to fix. A simple “restore this photo” will work. You can also add more details, like “fix scratches and colorize”.

Step 3. Generate

Click the arrow in the prompt box to start restoration.

Your restored version will appear as a new image, while the original stays untouched.

Restoring a Photo Using the Edit Prompt Box

To easily restore a photo that you've previously generated or uploaded, simply:

1. Click on an image in the Content Generator (e.g., in the Uploaded folder) to open it in the full view.
2. In the prompt box below the image, describe what you want to do, for example: "restore and colorize this photo".
3. Press the arrow in the prompt box and wait a moment.

Your restored photo will be generated as a new image.
