A closer look

Correct a tint, not missing light

For a saved Flash-style image, Color mode makes a restrained white-balance correction. It does not regenerate dark backgrounds, replace faces, remove all grain, or recover highlights that were clipped to white.

01

Inspect bright cheeks and dark backgrounds

If light and shadow information has been erased, a global color adjustment cannot bring it back. Prefer the pre-effect export for important photos.

02

Preserve what is visible

All editing uses an orientation-normalized working copy up to 1024 pixels on the longest edge. Keep the uploaded file for full-resolution reference.

03

No forced transformation

Uncertain analysis asks for a mode. A no-op or failed result does not consume a free credit.
