OldtoLife is an iOS app for repairing and reviving old, faded, scratched, damaged, or black-and-white photos. Its six tools are Remove Scratches, Colorize, Enhance, Brighten, Recreate, and Merge. Users select an image from the camera roll or scan a print, choose a tool, then compare the result before saving or sharing. The site says processing usually takes about ten seconds and returns a high-resolution image. Full-HD results can be saved to the gallery or shared with family. JPEG, PNG, and HEIC files are supported. A free plan is available. The Annual plan costs $49.90 a year after a 3-day free trial and includes unlimited restorations, all six tools, full-HD downloads and sharing, no daily limit, no watermark, and new tools as they launch. No account is required. Submitted photos are sent to the backend and AI provider for processing, use encrypted connections, and are retained only as long as needed for delivery.
