Watch every restoration run live

Most AI photo tools queue your upload and leave you guessing how long it will take. Nostalgia streams every job state change to every client the moment it happens \u2014 so you see the ETA, know when a pass finishes, and can close the tab without worry.

How It Works

Live everywhere you’re signed in

1

Kick off a job

Start a restore, batch, or scan session on mobile or web. The moment it enters the queue you’ll see a live status pill with an initial ETA.

2

Stream the run

State changes push over a live connection to every device you’re signed into. Switch tabs, lock your phone, or walk away \u2014 the status keeps updating.

3

Land the result

Completion notifications arrive on whichever device you pick up first. Mobile shows a banner in Library; web shows an activity toast with a jump-to-asset link.

Details

What you see, and what moves you first

Live ETAs

Every queued job shows a real ETA based on current load and your tier. No vague “this might take a while” spinner \u2014 a real number that updates as the queue drains.

Priority queue

Plus and Pro subscribers are routed through a separate priority queue that drains before the free queue. When the system is busy, your photos run first.

Batch-aware

For batches, you see per-photo progress and the overall completion percentage side by side \u2014 so you know whether to wait or move on.

Cross-device updates

State changes reach every client you’re signed into. Close the web tab and you’ll still see the completion notification on mobile.

Failure visibility

If something goes wrong \u2014 a model timeout, a retry, a credit issue \u2014 the specific error surfaces immediately rather than hiding behind a generic failure.

Re-entry anywhere

Tap a notification and land directly on the finished photo, ready to review, compare, or continue to the next step.

Stop guessing when your photo will be ready

Live progress is on by default for every account. Upgrade to Plus or Pro to skip the line when the queue gets long.
