Managed to digitize four generations of albums in a weekend. Such a huge weight off my shoulders.
Image upscaler
Upscale old photos without a heavy photo editor.
This free image upscaler helps when an old photo scan looks fine on your phone, but turns soft after you crop, print, or share it. Use it after scanning, restoration, or colorization when you need a cleaner, larger file.
For full repairs such as scratches, fading, and color balance, start with the free photo restore demo.
Old prints scanned too small
Make low-resolution scans larger before sharing or printing, so faces and small details hold up better.
Cropped family photos
Enlarge a cropped portrait or group shot without stretching it manually in a photo editor.
Soft screenshots and phone captures
Clean up images captured from messages, social posts, or quick phone photos when the original file is not available.
What you get
- 2x, 4x, and 8x options for different file sizes
- Optional face enhancement for portraits
- Before-and-after preview before downloading
- Free preview; email unlocks the full-resolution download

FAQ
Image upscaler questions
Is this image upscaler free?
Yes. You can preview and download the upscaled photo for free.
Do I need an account?
No. You can upscale and unlock the download with your email without signing up. Your email unlocks the full-resolution download and a backup link.
How is this different from other upscalers?
This tool is built for quick checks: preview the 2×/4×/8× result first, then unlock the download with your email. The face option can help portraits.
Can I use this image upscaler for old photos?
Yes. It works well after scanning old prints, cropping a family portrait, or restoring a photo that still needs a larger export.
What does the “Face enhance” option do?
It can make faces look clearer. Try it for close-up photos of people. Turn it off if the photo starts to look too strong.
Will upscaling change the person?
It is designed to enlarge and clarify the photo, not reinvent the person. If a face starts to look different, rerun without Face enhance or use the full restore flow and tell us what changed.
What files can I upload?
Most photos will work. For best results, use a clear photo with even light and little glare.
How long do you keep my files?
