Every tool your photos need

One app for the whole recovery — from a quick one-tap fix to careful, tool-by-tool restoration.

Full restore

One tap — Magic repairs the damage, then adds colour without redrawing anyone, so the people in your photo still look like themselves. Sideways photos are turned the right way up.

Enhance faces

Sharpen soft, blurry faces and bring back natural detail and expression.

Repair damage

Heal scratches, tears, creases, water stains, and missing corners.

Colorize

Turn black-and-white photos into believable, natural color.

Fix a colour

Know what colour her dress really was? Tap it and choose — only the colour changes, never the photo.

Upscale

Enlarge small or low-resolution photos with crisp, added detail.

Remove background

Cleanly cut out the subject and drop the background.

Erase object

Paint over anything you want gone and let AI fill it in.

AI Edit

Describe the fix in your own words and let Photospital handle it.

Animate

Bring a still photo to life as a short, gently moving video clip.

Print & Ship

Order a real print of any photo — framed or on canvas — and it arrives in the mail.

Greeting cards

Turn a restored photo into a birthday, anniversary or thank-you card with your own note — send it, or have it printed and mailed straight to them.

Share with family

Send a before & after link anyone can open — no app needed. Links are deleted after 30 days, or whenever you remove them.

How it works

No editing skills required. Three taps from faded to framed.

1

Pick a photo

Choose a photo from your library, or scan a whole album page — Photospital finds and crops each print for you.

2

Choose a tool

Tap Magic for a full restore, or pick a single tool. Restore many at once with Batch.

3

Save, share & print

Save the result, send family a before & after link they can slide, or order a real print — to your door or theirs.

Questions & answers

Is my photo private?

Yes. There are no accounts and no tracking. Your photo is sent securely to our AI provider only to produce your result, and it isn't stored on our servers afterward — the only exception is a photo you choose to send to print. Your restoration history stays on your device. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Does it work on badly damaged photos?

Often, yes — Repair Damage is built for scratches, tears, creases, stains, and missing corners, and you can stack tools (repair, then enhance faces, then colorize) for tough cases. AI results vary by photo, so some heavily damaged originals come out better than others, but most see a real improvement.

Do I need a subscription?

The AI restore tools are part of Photospital Pro, which starts with a 3-day free trial ($4.99/month or $29.99/year). You can cancel anytime before the trial ends in your Apple ID settings.

Can I order physical prints?

Yes — and the photo doesn't need to be restored first. Tap Print on the home screen, pick any photo, and order a 4×6 ($4.99), an 8×10 ($9.99), a framed 8×10 ($59.99), or a 12×16 canvas ($59.99). Pay with Apple Pay; shipping is priced for your order at checkout (from $6.99 for prints, more for framed and canvas pieces) and ships within the United States for now. Prints are paid for à la carte and don't require a subscription, and no print or printed card ever carries the Photospital logo or a watermark — even if the photo you saved from the free version has one, the app takes it out before printing. If you have a coupon code, enter it at checkout. Prints are made to order, so once you pay the order goes straight to the printer and can't be cancelled or refunded — if one arrives damaged, we reprint it free.
