About this app
We are all curious. To a greater or lesser extent, we have doubts about our appearance, the way they see us, how we would be in this or that way. FaceApp is an application that will allow us to know every detail of how our appearance would change according to some of the more than 20 filters offered by the platform.
FaceApp has become very popular lately. It went viral twice, once when the filter that added years to the person portrayed was known, and twice, when it modified the image changing the user's gender in the photograph.
On the platform we have all kinds of filters to alter our appearance. FaceApp works with an advanced artificial intelligence system which results in high quality images. Some of the options available are Hollywood filters, changes in hair color and hairstyle, adding a beard and mustache or adding tattoos.
