Colorize - Restore Old Photos
authentic ratingPeople have used the app for years specifically to colorize black-and-white photos, and here it often delivers a beautiful almost Kodachrome result in one click. Its weak spot is that the AI now takes noticeable liberties, changing faces, skin tone and clothing, adding fingers and even extra heads, so about a fifth of the time the shot is ruined. Plus complaints about slow loading of several minutes and frequent server crashes.
The gap between store 4.60 and text 3.03 is moderate, and reviews across all ratings have specifics: some colorize black-and-white shots for years, some catch changed faces and colors. This looks like a live picture, not fakery.
