How to do it
- 1
Use the button on this page to open the bot in Telegram, then press Start. Your 15 free credits appear on first launch.
- 2
Send the scan or phone picture as a file (document) so Telegram does not compress it. In the caption write: young woman, repair damage, brown hair, dark blue dress, light eyes.

Wait 1-2 minutes. The bot cleans the damage first and adds color after that, so you get one finished image to check and save.
Try it on your own photo: 7 images are free, no sign-up.
Make it in TelegramFamily memory fills the gaps
The AI cannot know the color of her favorite dress, but you or a relative might. Even a single detail like green eyes or a red scarf makes the picture feel right. When relatives disagree, run two versions and show both. Paid credits start from 199 Stars if you want to continue after the free start. A run takes 1-2 minutes and uses 2 credits, so trying a second version with a clearer caption is an easy step.
Handling the original
Handle the print by the edges, store it in an acid-free sleeve and keep it away from direct light. The restored file is a copy for sharing. If you gift it, mention how it was made so that everyone knows the colors are interpretations. Save every version in the same folder and add the year and the names to the file name so nothing gets mixed up later.
Tips
- Ask aunts and uncles about her dress and hair color.
- If there are two or three photos, restore the clearest first.
- Compare the face with later photos of her.
- Save the original with her name and the year.
