Photomyne review

Photomyne ranks first because it handles the whole job most people face: getting old prints off paper and then fixing them. Its Photo Scan app captures several printed photos in one shot, finds the edges, crops and rotates them, and also scans slides and negatives. The restore tools sharpen blurry faces, colorize black-and-white photos and auto restore faded colors, while the original scan is kept untouched. Heavier repairs such as removing scratches, tears and glare use optional AI credits, sold separately from $3.99 on the US App Store. The free plan covers scanning, saving and core enhancements with ads. A membership removes ads and adds cloud backup and access on the web, at $19.99 a month, $59.99 a year after a 3-day trial, or $119.99 for three years. The app holds a 4.7 rating from 97K US ratings.
