Fotor Red-Eye Remover

Fotor Red-Eye Remover fixes the red glow a camera flash leaves in people's eyes. You size a brush to the eye and paint over the red part, and the tool corrects the pupil colour. A small eye in a group shot means shrinking the brush first. Fotor states it also fixes red eyes in photos of pets.

It is one tool in the Fotor online editor, so the same photo can carry on into cropping, retouching and colour work. It runs in a browser and in Fotor's Windows, Mac, iPhone and Android apps. On a free account the fix costs nothing and adds no watermark. Downloading the result needs you to sign in.

Use Fotor Red-Eye Remover if:

• You have an indoor or night photo where the flash turned everyone's eyes red.
• You want the fix free and clean. It downloaded without a watermark or payment on a free account.
• Your photo is of a pet with red eyes. Fotor states the same tool covers cats, dogs and other animals.
• You want to decide which eyes get touched. You paint over each one, so nothing else in the photo is altered.
• You have other things to fix on the same picture. It sits inside Fotor's editor next to cropping, retouching and colour tools.
• You are on a phone or a desktop. The same editor runs in Fotor's iPhone, Android, Windows and Mac apps.

Skip Fotor Red-Eye Remover if any of these describe you:

• You have a stack of flash photos from an event. You paint over every eye by hand here, which is slow for many photos. Evoto fixes red eyes across whole shoots.
• The eyes are tiny or the photo is a crowd. You size a brush onto each pupil, so a crowd means a lot of brushing. Compare other red-eye removers.
• The eye problem is not redness. Closed eyes, glare on glasses or a dull gaze are different jobs, and other photo retouching tools handle those.
• You want it fixed without you doing anything. This tool needs you to brush over each eye, not only upload.
• You want the eye rebuilt rather than recoloured. This corrects the colour of the pupil, it does not generate a new eye.
