How to Use ihancer to Enhance a Photo
Updated
ihancer enhances a photo automatically with a few taps: import a low-quality image from your gallery or take a new one with the camera, tap the enhancement button, wait briefly, and get a higher-quality result. It is built for photos with poor quality, small resolution, pixelation, blur, or resize artifacts, and the underlying technology is optimized for images that contain faces while still working on other kinds of photos.
Before You Start
- Have the photo you want to improve ready in your device gallery, or be prepared to take a new one with the camera.
- Install the ihancer app on your mobile device. The app can be downloaded for free.
- Expect the enhancement to take a short wait rather than being instant.
Step-by-Step
- Import or capture the source photo. Open the app and either import a bad-quality photo from your gallery or take a new photo with the camera. This is the image the app will work on.
- Start the enhancement. Tap the single enhancement button. The app processes the image automatically using machine learning technology — you do not set manual parameters.
- Wait for processing to finish. The app needs a bit of time to produce the good-quality photo.
- Review the result. Use the before-and-after slider to compare the original and enhanced versions in real time, and use the zoom feature to inspect the enhancement in detail.
- Compare enhancement options if needed. The results have multiple tabs, so you can see how the same photo is enhanced by different enhancement methods and pick the one that suits you best. The app offers several enhancement options that produce different results.
- Save or share. Save the enhanced photo to your gallery, or share it with other apps such as social networks, messengers, or photo editors.
What You Can Use It For
| Use case | What it addresses |
|---|---|
| Enhance photo quality | General improvement of a poor-quality image |
| Restore photos | Bringing back older photos |
| Increase image resolution | Making a small photo larger |
| Fix pixelated and blurry photos | Sharpening visibly degraded images |
| Improve image details | Bringing out finer detail |
| Enhance facial photos | Best fit, since the technology is optimized for faces |
| Remove image resize artifacts | Cleaning up distortion from prior resizing |
Common Points to Check
- Face photos get the best results. The technology is optimized for images with faces, but it also works fine with all other kinds of photos.
- Not sure which result is best? Switch between the tabs in the results view and compare the same photo across enhancement methods before saving.
- Want to judge quality closely? Rely on the zoom feature rather than the slider alone, since the slider gives a quick overall comparison.
- Interface preferences. The app has a simple UI and supports dark UI mode, and it is localized in several languages.
