Glare is ruining my photos… but AI is actually saving them 

I was going through my camera roll recently and realized something:
nothing destroys a good photo faster than glare — glasses shining like headlights, random bright spots on skin, window reflections showing half the room… you name it.
Tried a few online tools just for fun, and surprisingly, HitPaw Online Image Watermark Remover handled glare pretty well.
You literally just highlight the shiny area → AI fixes it → done.
No settings, no downloads, no headache. ![]()
It works especially well for:
-
Glasses glare

-
Small bright spots
-
Forehead shine (hello studio lights…)
-
Quick edits when you just need a fast fix

But… for more complicated photos (big glass reflections, metal surfaces, or high-res DSLR shots), the online version sometimes isn’t enough.
So I also tested HitPaw Watermark Remover (Desktop) — just casually mentioning it in case anyone needs something stronger.
It offers:
-
Multiple AI removal modes
-
Better control for precision edits
-
Much cleaner results on 4K/large images
Basically, if the online version is the “quick rescue,”
the desktop version is the “fix it perfectly before printing” option. ![]()
Curious to hear from everyone:
What kind of glare ruins your photos the most?
Glasses reflection? Window glare? Skin shine?
