Restore faces & sharpen photos with on-device AI. Private: nothing is uploaded.
Unblur Face restores blurry faces and sharpens photos with AI that runs entirely on your phone. Your pictures are never uploaded, and there is no account to create.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• On-device AI: photos are processed on your phone, never sent to a server
• No account, no sign-up, no cloud storage
• Works offline: once the AI models are on your phone, no connection is needed to enhance photos
• Nothing is written to your gallery until you tap Save or Share
• No storage, camera or location permissions: you pick a photo with the Android photo picker
• Faces are found on your device only so each one can be restored. Unblur Face does not identify or recognize people and does not store face data
WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Restore faces in portraits and group photos, each face on its own
• Sharpen and enlarge photos up to 4x. Big photos are processed in tiles so they work on a phone
• Colorize black-and-white photos (optional). The original detail is kept; only colour is added
• Drag a before/after slider and pinch to zoom in on the details
• Crop to the people with one switch. It is off by default, so nothing is cropped unless you say so
• Choose your maximum output size, from 512 to 2048 pixels
• Save as JPEG or PNG to Pictures/UnblurFace, or share straight from the result screen
HOW IT WORKS
Unblur Face combines open-source AI models (GFPGAN for faces, Real-ESRGAN for detail) running with Google's LiteRT. Face detection uses on-device ML Kit. If you have a recent phone with a capable GPU, enhancement is fast; otherwise Unblur Face falls back to the processor and takes longer.
The AI models are included with the app.
GOOD TO KNOW
• Results are AI estimates. Restored faces and added colours can differ from the real thing, so do not use Unblur Face for identification or as evidence
• Always keep your original photo
• Needs Android 11 or newer and a 64-bit phone. 4 GB of RAM or more is recommended for large photos
• Unblur Face is free and supported by ads from Google AdMob. Ads may use your device's advertising ID; you can reset or opt out of ads personalization in your Android settings
