Thoroughly impressive in every way.

By TopShelfThots (Pcmac user)

Like another reviewer has said, this app demonstrates just how powerful iOS devices can be. Running this on other computers (not the website options) was far slower, and had the computer working VERY hard, fabs running at full speed. It makes me wonder what trick iOS hardware has that enables it to do the same thing as NVIDIA’s CUDA GPU’s. Anyway, I use this all the time for artwork, photos, but most of all, screenshots from games. Not really what it was designed for, but it really makes a difference! Big thanks to the developer for making what is FAR from simple on a computer, very easy and quick on my iPhone.
Fantastic!

This app is my go-to solution whenever I can’t find high-resolution versions of artwork. It even allows me to use Procreate in “lower” resolutions like 2048x2048 and then have them upscaled to a massive 8192x8192 without any noticeable quality issues! Furthermore, as another reviewer said, this really reveals the raw power that usually lies dormant in Apple’s devices. The this app algorithm normally requires CUDA and a beefy Nvidia desktop GPU to perform at a decent speed, but this app takes advantage of Metal Performance Shaders is Core ML (based on a setting) and runs really dang well on modern iOS devices, especially those featuring Apple’s Neural Engine.
Well Frick

Better than using this app on Safari. Annoying Captcha, and just because. I like how you can compare the original and the new version. I found this by accident on my laptop but the reviews were good so I downloaded It. No ads, no BS. Bless whoever made this.
One excellent app you never have to coax me to review

I’ve used waif2x on the web and my MacBook. This app is gold and not only that, but kept up to date. I use it for low resolution artwork and as far as I’m concerned, it’s the last and least expensive upscaling app I’ll ever need.
