Two sliders allow you to control the process. Despite using the same processing algorithm as MyHeritage, the results are different, and Colorize Images offers a small amount of control over how images are colorized too. If you prefer the simplicity of using your phone rather than a laptop or desktop, it may also be well worth paying for a short subscription (there are eight-hour and one month options available).
Since the app uses the same processing algorithm as MyHeritage (see below), which is a free to use browser-based colorization option, the subscription is difficult to justify, though it's certainly fine if you only have a handful of images to colorize.
One downside of the app is that it reduces the dimensions of the output image, whereas the Colorize Images on Android (below) maintains original dimensions.ĭownload Colorize for iOS (opens in new tab)Ĭolorize Images is a paid app that offers ten automatic image colorizations before you’re asked to pay for a subscription for the app. Colorization of images is more effective with simpler images than it is with more complex scenes. The app is fully automated so it’s simply a case of selecting the image to process and the app takes care of the rest. The fact that Colorize features the ability to scan photos from within its partner app, or to upload from the camera roll, is useful. One deciding factor for taking up a subscription to the app may simply be that you have a large number of images to colorize and prefer to do it on your phone. It's an expensive app for the long term compared to the Android app below, particularly considering there are free web-based options available, but Colorize does have one or two tricks up its sleeve. Colorize is a paid app for iOS offering a free, three-day trial of premium functionality, which later costs $4.99 / £4.99 / AU$7.99 per month.
