Image upscaler: more room for your best images

A conventional resize calculates new pixel values from neighboring pixels. It can make a larger file without supplying more evidence about hair, woven cloth or an object’s edge. AI enlargement instead estimates a detailed version using patterns learned during training.

That distinction is useful, but it is also a limit: convincing texture is not proof of the original detail. Use Enhance Photo to prepare a more usable image and compare the result against the source, especially for faces, labels and artwork.

• Texture and edges: inspect whether reconstructed detail looks coherent at 100%, not just sharper in a reduced preview.
• Size choices: use a scale multiplier when the starting dimensions matter, or a resolution target when preparing a particular display.
• Mode choices: Fast and higher-detail options have different credit rates; a larger or more expensive mode is not automatically the best match for every image.
• Browser workflow: choose and review the image on a phone or computer without installing a desktop editor. AI generation is remote, rather than a local browser conversion.

Match the output to the destination and check the details that matter for that job.

• Travel wallpapers: compare the output dimensions with your monitor, then inspect trees, rocks and clouds rather than relying on a thumbnail.
• Old portraits and selfies: improve the source first when blur or damage is the main problem, then enlarge for an album or framed print.
• Product listings: review fabric, seams and labels against the actual product. Do not publish invented specifications or altered marks.
• Illustrations and digital art: check line thickness, flat colors, signatures and intentional brush texture before preparing a poster.

The original stays available for comparison, so a larger file can be judged against the photo you actually chose.

• Aim for recognizable subjects and natural texture, with no requested face replacement or beauty transformation.
• Choose large-output targets up to 8K when the source and intended use justify them. Inspect the actual download dimensions.
• Address compression blocks and grain while enlarging; heavily damaged inputs may still need separate restoration.
• Save files within the 24-hour retention window. Avoid uploading images you are not entitled to process.

A multiplier describes a change to both pixel dimensions. A resolution label describes a size target. Keep the original aspect ratio in mind: a portrait does not become a widescreen picture simply because you choose 4K.

• 2× doubles width and height: 1200 × 800 becomes 2400 × 1600, with four times as many pixels. This is a useful starting point for everyday sharing.
• 4× multiplies both dimensions by four: 800 × 600 becomes 3200 × 2400, with sixteen times as many pixels. Check whether the extra texture still looks credible.
• 4K is useful for large displays and presentation assets. A 16:9 UHD display is 3840 × 2160; other image shapes require different width and height combinations.
• 8K gives a larger canvas, with 7680 × 4320 as a common 16:9 display reference. Print suitability still depends on viewing distance, pixel density and source quality.

More output pixels do not remove the need for a careful source and final review.

• Find the original photograph rather than a messaging-app copy or a screenshot that has already lost texture.
• If a face is soft, address the blur with Photo Enhancer before the final enlargement. Compare identity-relevant details at both steps.
• Zoom to 100% to inspect words, logos and small facial features. Do not treat reconstructed text as a verified transcription.
• Plan the credit cost for each run and save the chosen file before the 24-hour deletion window closes.

Make framing and content decisions before spending credits on the largest version.

• Remove unwanted text or marked distractions using the removal brush, then inspect the filled area before continuing.
• Improve a soft source with Photo Enhancer and confirm the face and expression still match.
• Use AI Image Extender if you need a wider composition; upscale the selected composition afterward.

• Upscaling is intended to preserve the composition and proportions, rather than crop or reframe the photo. Check the delivered dimensions and edges.
• AI may synthesize mistaken texture, letters or facial detail. A request to preserve the subject does not guarantee every pixel is factual.
• A tiny, unreadable thumbnail cannot supply a reliable original face or missing text. Do not use a plausible reconstruction as forensic evidence.
• A digital file cannot guarantee print quality. Paper, ink, printer settings, physical size and viewing distance all affect the result.

Families preparing albums, people making desktop wallpapers, store owners publishing product images, and illustrators or vintage-photo collectors all have different quality checks.

• For family prints, prioritize recognizable faces over aggressive skin smoothing and request a small proof when the print is important.
• For high-resolution screens, match the screen’s aspect ratio and assess the image at a normal viewing distance.
• For stores and social posts, retain accurate product details and check the platform’s image dimensions and compression.
• For artwork and scanned photographs, preserve intentional lines and repair physical damage separately when needed.
