Unpixelate an image that turned into blocks: a photo saved too small, stretched, or squashed by heavy compression. Upload it and compare the smooth result before you save anything.

Both versions remove the same blocks and keep faces and colors. Pro rebuilds the photo with almost twice as many pixels.
Removes the pixel blocks and gives the photo back at about 2.4 megapixels, plenty for sharing and screens. Patterns, petals and edges are smooth again, and a soft background stays soft. Covered by the daily free credits.
The same fix at about 4.2 megapixels, so you can print the photo or crop in on a face. Faces, clothing and painted surfaces come back with clean edges and the same colors.
Three steps. A run usually takes one to two minutes.
JPG, PNG or WebP up to 20 MB. A small photo saved from a chat or an old phone works too.
Standard is enough to repost a photo or use it as a profile picture. Pro gives you room to print it or crop in on a face.
Slide across faces and edges to see the blocks disappear, then save the smooth photo.
Pixelation from a small or over-compressed photo fixes best. Faces, and anything hidden on purpose, need a closer look.
Pictures that went blocky because they were saved small, enlarged or compressed come back smooth, with faces, fur, buildings and flowers looking natural again. Colors and framing stay the same.
Each block hides the detail inside it, so the AI redraws what most likely belonged there. With small blocks the result stays close to the real photo. With very large blocks, faces still look natural but may not look exactly like the person, so check them with the slider.
A face, license plate or text that someone pixelated to hide it has lost that information for good. The tool will draw something plausible there, not the real face or number. Use it to fix low-quality photos, not to identify anyone.
Sometimes a better copy or a simple edit is enough. These work with any photo editor.
If you can get a bigger copy of the photo, that always gives the most faithful result. When you can't, this tool rebuilds the missing detail for you in a minute or two.
Pixelation usually means you have a small copy. Check the original phone or camera, the cloud backup, or ask the person who sent it to share the original file instead of a chat preview.
In Photoshop, use Image Size with Preserve Details 2.0. GIMP's Scale Image with the NoHalo or LoHalo option works too. Both enlarge more smoothly than a plain stretch.
A light Gaussian blur or Reduce Noise hides the hard edges of the squares, then a little sharpening brings back some contrast. The photo looks smoother but no new detail appears.
Pixels are only visible when a photo is shown bigger than it really is. Printing or posting it at a smaller size hides the blocks without any editing.
Yes. Standard costs 8 credits and is covered by the free credits everyone gets each day, no account needed. Pro uses 16 purchased credits. Downloads have no watermark.
No. Pixelating something on purpose deletes the detail, and no tool can bring it back. Here the blocks are replaced with a face or plate that looks plausible but is invented, so it can't show who or what was hidden.
Pixelated photos show hard square blocks; blurry photos are soft all over from focus or movement. Use this tool for blocks, and Unblur Image for soft, shaky or out-of-focus shots.
Photos inside a screenshot come back well. Small text, logos and drawn graphics may change shape, so for screenshots of documents or apps it's better to take a new screenshot at full size.
Large text that you can already read gets cleaner. Small text that is unreadable in the blocks may come back as wrong letters, so don't rely on the result for names, numbers or documents.
Your photos are used only to create your result, never to train AI. Without an account they're deleted after 24 hours. Signed in, they're kept in History for 72 hours, or until you delete them if you turn on "Keep my tasks". Details are in our Privacy Policy.
