FaceApp App – How to Download
The app is available for Android and iOS. It is free, but some more advanced and professional features require payment. To download, simply visit your app store (Play Store or App Store) and request the download on your smartphone device.
Once installed, you must open the application and choose which packages the application offers you. If you are interested in simply keeping the free plan, just close the plans screen.
On the next screen, the app will ask for access to your photo library and your phone's camera. Only with this confirmation will you be able to share your photo so that you can use it in new and old photos.
FaceApp App – How to Use
After completing this step-by-step installation, you will be able to use the app for free to edit photos. You can take a new photo using a photo from your gallery or by opening the camera in the app itself. You can also use celebrity photos to test the app's functionality.
With the launch of the free tier feature, you can edit your photos, add accessories like hair, glasses, beard, change the background and even add a smile to your photos.
Unfortunately, the more professional features of this app are paid, but free features like aging and gender changing are the real selling points of this app.
How to use Faceapp to change gender
If you’ve already selected a cool photo to play with, let’s start with the app’s free conversion tool. To change the gender, we’ll use the model in the demo tab to see what they look like with the chosen gender.
Simply select the “Gender” tab and choose from the available options, i.e. Male or Female. Once you have chosen, click on “Apply” in the bottom left corner, and you will be able to see the change in the shape of your face instantly.
If you like your version of a different gender, just save it to your gallery. You can also make other transitions, such as changing your hairstyle, adding or removing a beard, and using various accessories, such as glasses.
Is FaceApp safe to use?
With the popularity of the app, many doubts and rumors about the app's security have arisen. Mainly because the app's privacy policy was very vague at first and the amount of information was very small.
Additionally, rumors that the app was looking for personal data spread, making users doubt the developer's intentions. That's why it's important to read the following considerations to avoid problems with your image in the future.
You should always read the app's Privacy Policy and Terms of Use carefully, as they will ensure that you understand how to act on the Face app and what to do if you feel violated or if your images are being used inappropriately.
Please strictly follow all the app's guidelines. And to prevent your photos from being used without your consent, you can delete all photos within 48 hours of the last edit.
