Level a leaning horizon in an old snapshot
Snapshot photographers rarely checked the horizon. The sea runs downhill and the church tower leans like a tower in Pisa. Send a photo of the print and the bot rotates the picture to level and fills the corners that the rotation exposes.

Make it in TelegramRotate, then fill
Turning a picture by a few degrees leaves empty triangles in the corners. A crop hides them and costs part of the scene. The bot can instead extend the sky, water or ground into the corners. Plain areas fill well. Corners with a busy street are guessed and deserve a look at full size. Choose between the crop and the fill depending on what lives at the edge.
Lines to trust
A sea horizon should be flat, and so should a table edge. Walls and towers can lean for real, especially in old buildings, so do not straighten a slanting house just because it looks odd. Pick one reliable line and level that. If the print itself sat crooked on the scanner, redo the scan first, since that is a cleaner way to fix the angle.
Tips
- Say which line should be level, such as the sea or a door.
- Keep people away from the edge if you can still retake the scan.
- Rotate the scan itself first if it was placed crookedly.
- Ask for a mild fix on pictures with a deliberate angle.
Questions and answers
Does it keep the whole picture?
Yes, when you ask for fill instead of crop.
Is this different from a skewed print photo?
Yes. That page is about a crooked phone photo of a print, and this one is about a crooked scene.
What does it cost?
2 credits per image. New users get 15 free credits, so 7 images cost nothing. After that packs start at 129 Telegram Stars, about $2.6 and credits do not expire.
Does the bot work in English?
Yes. It picks up your Telegram language on first launch. You can switch it any time with /lang.
What the bot does not do
- Does not print photos and does not retouch passport or ID photos.
- Does not promise a fixed pixel size. Check the result at full size before printing.
- Heavily damaged faces are reconstructed by AI and may not look like the person. Compare with another photo.
- Does not make video or animate the photo.
