You should know there is a free app called Remini that uses AI technology to scan your old photos and make them look like they were taken in HD. Here's an image I used.
Remini App is incredibly mediocre now. Any good alternatives?
I put Red guy into Remini (AI generator), the results were...interesting. 😅
The best I got using Remini app to improve the image with AI was this:

Back 2 years ago I used to use the Remini app for ALL my photos. This one in particular is of my Dad's late cousin. As you can see it's realistic, it's clear, and amazing quality in 2021. After just some basic enhancing, descratch to remove any tears/scratches in the physical photo, increasing of pixelation in photoshop to make the photo easier to read by the AI, and then retro to really bring the photo to life.
However a new update came where they removed literally every single feature about a year ago. Retro was gone, video enhance was gone. I mean I remember there being countless of options to now only just one. They removed saving enhanced pictures to their little history folder. And the AI isn't even as accurate or as realistic as it was before. I used the same effects on the original photo for proper comparison.
Now everything they ask for payment when it used to all be free. There's even watermarks now?? Like what??
