Meitu Wink is an AI image and video enhancement app whose 画质修复 (image-quality restoration) feature upscales and restores photos and video frames.
Wink (美图Wink) extends Meitu’s imaging AI into photo and video quality restoration. Its 画质修复 feature uses AI to upscale low-resolution photos and video, restore detail in old or compressed media, and sharpen facial features — positioning it as a video-era companion to Meitu’s photo apps. Users can enhance entire video clips frame-by-frame, fix blur and noise, and apply beauty and color adjustments along the way. The app is popular with Chinese content creators who restore old family photos or lift the quality of social video.
Wink extends the enhancement idea into video, where quality problems are harder to fix: compressed clips, dim lighting, and soft focus plague phone-shot content. The 画质修复 feature processes video frame by frame, restoring sharpness and detail across entire clips rather than single images, while the photo restoration mode revives old and damaged prints — a popular family use case in China. Meitu’s face-handling heritage shows in portrait results, where features sharpen naturally rather than waxily. The mobile-first experience fits creators who shoot, edit, and publish from phones. Power users may miss desktop batch controls and fine restoration sliders, but for social creators and families restoring memories, Wink delivers credible restoration with the lowest possible barrier to entry.
Wink uses a freemium model: free users get daily enhancement allowances with standard output, while paid memberships unlock high-resolution output, batch video processing, and premium restoration features. Membership is available through the app stores.
It is built for Chinese content creators, social-media users, and families restoring old photos and videos. It is especially useful for creators who shoot on phones and want a fast quality lift before publishing.
Yes, Wink is free to download with daily free enhancement usage and standard-resolution output. High-resolution downloads, batch video processing, and advanced restoration features require a paid membership.
Meitu provides enterprise imaging-AI services and SDKs through its business offerings, covering enhancement and restoration capabilities. Consumer users access Wink directly through the mobile apps.
Compared with desktop tools like AVCLabs, Wink is mobile-first and adds video restoration and beauty tools in one app. Versus general photo editors, its restoration models are stronger on faces and social-video formats, matching the needs of Chinese creators.
