    When you shoot a video for different purposes, whether it's personal social networks or commercial use for a company product or service, it happens that strangers get into the frame. When it comes to the commercial use of video, there is no doubt that you need to hide your face on video when it comes to people who did not give consent to participate in the shooting. It is extremely important to comply with the legal aspect. Then, after the publication of the video, there will be no problems and disputes.

    But it happens that on personal videos it is necessary to preserve the anonymity of some people. Participants in a video may want to maintain their privacy for various reasons– to protect personal data, security, or simply to keep their lives private. Here, too, the function would be useful to hide the face on the video before posting it on social networks.

    Sometimes the goals of video editing can be very different. For example, if you want to make a video funny or interesting with the help of retouching. Here is when the tool will come in handy to hide face emoji on the video. You can choose different funny and bright stickers to cover the faces of the video participants – your social media friends will appreciate such content, and you will get a lot of likes. Or you are a young mother, and you want to publish a video of your child, but to protect his face from unnecessary looks. Also, for you, this can be a way to give the video a mystery, or a special charm – to highlight the primary characters.

    How to hide your face on video with Android or iOS?

    Hide face on video – a fairly simple technology, if you have basic knowledge in the field of video editing and professional software. The main task in this process is to take into account the dynamism of the video and track the movements in the frame of the faces that need to be hidden. To do this, we use tracking: we set a tracker point on one part of the face (it can be the nose or eyes, or the entire head) and the program tracks all its movements. There is no need to draw a map of dots on the face – since we are covering the face with a static image, one dot will suffice. But it is important to make sure that this picture not only repeats the movements of the character's face but does not disappear throughout the entire video.

    How to hide your face with an emoji on your phone in a video?

    The next step is to choose the picture you like, with which we plan to hide the face in the video. It can be a sad or funny smiley, an animal head, a funny picture, or just a mosaic or a blur of faces. We impose this picture on top of the faces of the characters whose faces we plan to cover. With the help of tracking, which we set in the previous step, we transfer the movements of the face to the picture – now our smiley or blur will move synchronously with the movements of the character's face. In the case of such retouching, the picture in the frame will not change but will fulfill its function of hiding the face.

    They usually only took about an hour at the most to edit your photos. Now they’re taking 4-5 hours to edit them and when you come check on it in 4-5 hours you still have another 3 hours to wait !! it’s RIDICULOUS! it was never this bad. this need to get fixed asap! they charge you to edit them so why does it take so long ? it’s ridiculous

    I use to love this app but I'm about to get rid of it. It takes forever to receive the pictures and the wait time changes multiple times, making it even longer to get the pictures.

    Definitely worth the price, recently editing times have increased greatly and now I don't see an option to pay more coins to speed up but I understand times are tough and headcount of editors might be low, the editors do a great job at editing and that is what matters most at the end of the day. Thank you for keeping this app running behind the scenes. I will be a lifetime customer. Hope to see the speed up editing option back!

    Tremendously fast & for the most-part, high quality edits! I’ve had a few I had to resubmit due to complete misses, so I wish that process was a bit more customer friendly & that I didn’t have to pay again for a replacement edit. But overall, great service!

    Totally worth every penny. This app takes all the work out of it and you end up with perfect photos that look exactly how you imagined them in your head and not only that, but they're also extremely realistic as well.

    well this is not a free app, there is a 99 cent renewable option for 20 retouches. I bit the bullet, bought, and glad I did. As a plus, the retouch was easy to use and natural looking not overdone

    I’ve been using this app for a while now and it really helps with a lot of my photos especially if they’re bad lighting or if it is a bad angle, I can really get my photo to look how I want them to look. I appreciate them being able to do it for me because I do not have any photo editing skills lol
