Snap To Alter And Forward With Face Changing IPhone App

By Terrie Joyner


When it comes to entertainment today, there are few devices that come into play as much as the smartphone. The iPhone is one of the biggest smartphone bestsellers and arguably offers the finest quality phone applications. One of these wonderfully enjoyable applications must be the face changing iPhone app.

Like many other applications on offer for smartphones, there are multiple suppliers, each with their own unique design. There are two ways in which to effect the change desired. The first is to take a photograph with the phone itself or alternatively use an uploaded photo from your computer or online source.

One of the most popular versions of these applications is those that 'cartoonify' the image. Basically the program turns a real photograph image into its equivalent cartoon version. This application is a favorite not only because it provides fun results, but also because the user can utilize the same avatar image in other media such as online profiles. Using a cartoon version image allows them to carry out their online activity without having to use their own photographs. This means more discretion but still maintaining a cool image.

For those less interested in this kind of complete alteration, there are versions that simply allow the user to add specific features to a photograph. The features are normally to do with the clothing, accessories, make-up and hair. There can also be some distinct props added. It is similar to how people dress up for Halloween. A user selects a specific character such as a wizard or monster and the features are added on to the image with hilarious or horrifying results.

There is also a variation that allows the user to simply contort certain features on the image. For instance with a headshot photograph, the user may be able to widen the smile and elongate the face. Most of the applications in this category are not geared towards beautifying the image but rather making it look gruesome. Often the image results look like something out of a horror movie.

Another option that is very similar to the Photoshop idea is face swapping. Basically thee user selects two faces in an image and has the faces exchanged. The results can often be hilarious, especially if the two subjects in the picture are complete opposites. An example is switching heads on a male female couple in swimming costumes.

Just as with most other applications supplied through iTunes, these face changing iPhone apps are easy to understand and use. Once the user has made funny alterations, he or she can share the results with others by forwarding to their phones or uploading onto social networking sites. You can identify the best options by checking on their rating from previous users.

With a smartphone, users can easily connect to the internet and share the results from using a face changing iPhone app. This connectivity also makes it easy to quickly download the app. Most versions do not limit users on how many images they may alter meaning you can get many hours of fun out of its use.
