How it works

  1. Upload a photo with a color problem

    JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 7MB. Works on portraits, product shots, landscapes, and food photography. Common problems: orange indoor casts, green fluorescent tints, blue shade shadows, yellowed old photos, and flat washed-out colors from overcast days.

    Expect: Single-cast corrections (one dominant color problem): typically corrects in one pass. Complex multi-cast issues may need two passes.
  2. Describe the color problem you see

    Name the cast or problem in plain language: 'the whole photo is too orange from indoor lighting,' 'the skin tones look green under fluorescent lights,' 'the whites look yellow in this old photo,' or 'the sky is too magenta.' The more specific you are about which color is wrong and where, the better the correction.

    Tip: If you don't know the technical name, just describe what you see: 'everything looks too warm and yellow, the walls should be white not cream.' You don't need to say 'white balance' or 'color temperature' — plain description works.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Indoor tungsten/orange cast on portrait correct the orange color cast from indoor tungsten lighting, make the skin tones natural and the white walls actually white
    Fluorescent green cast on skin fix the green-yellow color cast from fluorescent office lighting, make the skin tones natural, correct the overall white balance
    Washed-out overcast landscape restore the colors in this overcast photo — the grass should be more green and the sky more blue-grey, reduce the overall flatness and add natural contrast
    Yellowed old photo correct the yellow-brown color cast in this old photo, restore neutral whites and natural tones without making it look artificially oversaturated
    3 more prompts
    Mixed lighting (indoor + window) balance the mixed lighting in this photo — the face is warm from indoor light and the window side is too cool blue, even out the skin tones across both sides
    Product with shifted color correct the color of the product — the red should be a true clean red not orangey-red, white background should be neutral white, keep the shape and texture unchanged
    Blue-shadow outdoor portrait correct the blue-purple shadow cast on the skin in this outdoor shade photo, warm up the shadows to natural skin tones, keep the background unchanged
  3. Check neutral references and skin tones

    After correction, look at what should be neutral: white walls, grey surfaces, the whites of eyes, or white clothing. If those look neutral, the color correction worked. For portraits, skin tones should look natural — not orangey, not greenish, not too magenta.

Tungsten indoor portrait — orange cast correction

Portrait shot under warm household bulbs. Strong orange cast made the white wall appear cream and the skin tones look over-bronzed. Single-pass correction with a white balance anchor.

Prompt: correct the orange color cast from indoor tungsten lighting, make the skin tones natural and the white wall actually white

Fluorescent office shot — green cast on skin

Team photo taken in an office under fluorescent ceiling lights. Green-yellow cast made everyone's skin look unwell. White correction panels and ceiling tiles were visibly green-tinted.

Prompt: fix the green-yellow color cast from fluorescent lighting, make skin tones natural and whites neutral

Product shot with shifted red — e-commerce fix

Red product on white background. Camera auto white balance shifted the red to appear orange-red and the white background to appear slightly warm. Brand color needed to be accurate for listing.

Quick answers

How do I fix a color cast in a photo for free?

Upload your photo to EditThisPic, describe the color problem — for example 'correct the orange color cast, the walls should be white not cream' — and click Generate. The AI adjusts the color balance and you download the result with no watermark. No account needed.

Can I fix color without knowing photography terms like 'white balance'?

Yes. Describe what you see in plain language: 'everything looks too yellow,' 'the skin tones are greenish,' 'the photo looks washed out.' The AI understands everyday color descriptions — you don't need to know white balance, color temperature, or LUT terminology.

Is there a free color correction tool that works on mobile?

Yes. EditThisPic runs fully in Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android — no app installation needed. Upload your photo from the camera roll, type the color problem, and save the corrected result to Photos.

Can AI fix old yellowed photo colors?

Yes. Old photos typically have yellow-brown casts from paper aging and faded dye. Use 'correct the yellow-brown cast, restore neutral whites and natural tones without making it look cold or oversaturated.' This is a reliable single-pass fix for most old color photos.

Can color correction change the actual color of objects — like make a red shirt blue?

That's a color change, not color correction. Color correction fixes incorrect casts to make a photo look accurate. To change an object's actual color, use the AI to describe the new color directly — for example 'change the red shirt to blue' — which is a deliberate recolor rather than a correction.
