How this review was made. This is a research-based review, not a lab test. Every claim comes from the vendor's own product page, read on 26 October 2026 and listed at the bottom. Where the vendor does not say something, we write "not stated". We do not publish prices: see the vendor's store page for your region. User counts, ratings and award quotes on the page are the vendor's own.

Look at Movavi Photo Editor if

You want to remove an object or change a background in a photo on Windows.
You want to restore an old photo or add colour to a black-and-white one.
You want to test a few images before you buy.

Look elsewhere if

You need to process very large images; the page says correct processing above 6000 × 8000 pixels cannot be guaranteed.
You need the Mac requirements or the licence type confirmed; the page does not state them.
You want a video editor rather than a photo editor; see our Movavi Video Editor review.

What the vendor says the editor does

The page lists photo editing, colour correction and presets, with 34 new presets. It lists captions, atmospheric effects and more than 100 effects and filters, and a custom sharpness adjustment.

The AI tools named are retouching, background removal and swap, object removal, colourisation, old photo restoration, and automatic light and colour enhancement.

The page also links to a separate Movavi mobile app for iOS.

Platforms and requirements

For Windows, the page lists Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit) with up-to-date patches, an Intel Core i5 or higher, 6 GB of RAM, a 1280 × 768 display, 500 MB for installation and 5 GB for ongoing use. The Mac version is listed as “Mac OS” without a version number.

Trial

The trial lets you save up to 10 images, and those images carry a watermark. Screenshots are disabled in the trial. The trial limitations are described on a linked support page.

Pricing and refunds

The page shows a one-time price, but does not say whether the licence is lifetime, a subscription or per licence. A buy link includes the word “picverseyear”, which the page does not explain. The page does not state refund terms. We do not publish prices.

Vendor claims

The page says “70M+ users”, “190+ countries”, “15+ updates per year” and “10,000+ effects”. It shows ratings from G2, TechJockey, Crozdesk and the App Store, and award quotes from PhotoWorks, Top10PCSoftware and FixThePhoto. These are the vendor’s own selections; we have not verified them.
