What it does

One photo restoration app for the pictures worth keeping.

Repair & restore

Reduce distracting scratches, dirt, and age marks that pull attention away from the people and places in an old photograph.

Restore faded color

Refresh faded color photos or create a natural-looking color version of a black-and-white family picture.

Unblur & enhance

Improve soft portraits and reveal clearer facial detail without learning a complicated manual photo editor.

Compare before saving

Press and hold to reveal the original, judge the restored details for yourself, then save the version you prefer.

Built for iPhone

From an old print to a restored result.

How it works

Restore an old photo in three steps.

01

Choose a photo

Pick one picture from your photo library or capture a printed photograph with your iPhone camera.

02

Choose a restoration

Enhance a blurry portrait, restore natural color, or reduce visible scratches and dirt.

03

Compare & save

Review the restored image beside the original. Save Standard for free or use Pro for HD detail and private History.

Made for family photos

The pictures worth keeping usually have a story behind them.

Preserve

Refresh a family album

Create clearer digital copies of old prints before age, light, or repeated handling causes more damage. Keep the physical originals after digitizing them.

Give

Prepare a meaningful gift

Restore a wedding portrait, childhood snapshot, or picture of a loved one before framing it for a birthday, anniversary, or family gathering.

Share

Pass on family history

Make faces and scenes easier to recognize before sharing old photographs with relatives who may never have seen the originals.

Private by design

Your whole photo library does not leave your phone.

Memento accesses only the photo you select through the system photo picker or camera. That selected image is sent to an AI restoration service to generate the result. Unrelated pictures from your library are not uploaded.

Restoration History is stored in the app's private local container on your device, not in a cloud account. You can clear local History in Settings.

Only the selected photo

You decide which image enters the restoration flow.

Local restoration History

Pro History records remain in Memento's private app storage on your device.

Clear, honest processing

Questions

What to know before restoring a photo.

What can Memento restore?

Memento is designed for faded, scratched, blurry, damaged, and black-and-white photos. The quality of the result depends on how much usable detail is present in the original image.

Can Memento colorize black-and-white photos?

Yes. Choose color restoration to create a natural-looking color version, then compare it with the original black-and-white photo before saving.

Does Memento change my original photo?

No. Memento generates a separate restored result. Your original remains unchanged, and the comparison view lets you inspect both versions.

Is Memento free?

You can use Memento and save a Standard restoration for free without a watermark. Memento Pro is optional and unlocks HD export and private on-device History.

Does Memento upload my entire photo library?

No. Memento processes only the image you intentionally select. It does not upload the rest of your photo library.

Will every restored photo be historically accurate?

AI restoration estimates details and color from the available image. It can make a photo clearer, but it cannot verify details missing from the original. Compare the result carefully when historical accuracy matters.

Where is my restoration History stored?

History is stored in Memento's private local container on your device. It is not currently synced to an account or cloud history service.

Do I need photo-editing experience?

No. Select a photo, choose a restoration, and review the result. Memento is a focused restoration workflow rather than a complicated manual editing suite.
