About this app

Bring old family photos back.

Heirloom repairs the photographs that matter most - the torn wedding portrait, the water-damaged baby picture, the faded newspaper clipping of relatives you never met. Upload a photo, choose what it needs, and get it back.

3 free restorations to start - No subscription.

πŸ–ΌοΈ WHAT IT FIXES

- Tears, creases, folds and missing corners
- Water damage, stains, mould spotting and chemical bleeding
- Fading and colour shift on prints that have sat in the sun
- Blur and softness from old scans or camera phone photos of photos
- Halftone dots from newspaper and magazine clippings
- Black and white photos you would like to see in colour

🎯 PICK WHAT YOUR PHOTO NEEDS

- Full restoration - everything the photo needs, including tears and creases
- Fix fading and colour - restore washed-out or colour-shifted prints
- Sharpen and enlarge - for low-resolution or soft scans
- Colourise - black and white to colour

Or just describe the problem in your own words and Heirloom works out which repairs to run.

βš–οΈ WE TELL YOU WHAT WE ACTUALLY DID

This is the part other restoration apps do not do.

When a photograph is badly enough damaged, no tool can recover detail that is no longer there - it has to fill in the gaps. That can produce a beautiful picture, but it is not the same as recovering the original.

So Heirloom labels every result:

- Faithful restoration - damage repaired, original detail preserved
- Partial reconstruction - some areas rebuilt where detail was missing
- Reimagined - the source lacked recoverable detail, so this is an interpretation

If you are working on family history, that difference matters. You should know whether you are looking at your great-grandmother's face or a plausible guess at it.

Every result comes with a before-and-after view so you can judge for yourself.

πŸ’³ CREDITS, NOT A SUBSCRIPTION

Most restoration apps charge every month whether you use them or not. Heirloom does not.

Buy credits when you need them. They never expire. Come back in a year and they are still there.

- 3 free restorations to start - no credits required
- Starter - 20 credits
- Standard - 50 credits
- Family Album - 150 credits

Most photos cost 1 to 3 credits depending on how much work they need. You see the cost before you start.

If a photo genuinely cannot be improved, you are not charged.

πŸ”’ YOUR PHOTOS

- Photos are processed by our AI providers and deleted straight afterwards
- Your original is deleted from our servers once the restoration is done
- We never use your photos to train anything
- You keep all rights to your images
- Location data is stripped from every result

πŸ“Έ ALSO

- Restore several photos at once
- Your original is always kept alongside the result
- Export at print resolution
- Share the before-and-after

πŸ’› WHO IT IS FOR

- Anyone with a shoebox of damaged family photographs
- Family historians and genealogy researchers
- People who have inherited an album and want to see it properly
- Anyone with one irreplaceable photo that has not aged well

Heirloom is not a photo editor. It does not retouch living people, change how anyone looks, or alter bodies or clothing. It repairs photographs.
Repair damaged family photos. Credits never expire, no subscription.

What’s new

First release.

Heirloom restores old and damaged photographs β€” fading, tears, stains, blur β€”
and tells you honestly how much of the result came from your photo and how much
was rebuilt. Every restoration is labelled Faithful, Partial or Reimagined.

If a photo is too far gone to recover honestly, we say so and don't charge you.

Restore up to 30 at a time. Your originals are never changed.

Welcome to Heirloom.
