There are better ones in the App Store

### 4/5 — BUT.....

This app would be good if it detected all faces all the time other than tht would be 5🌟s from me x

Great app! Works fine, even if it doesnt detect faces just tap them! Made some hilaaaarious photos!! 😂😝

### 5/5 — Hilarious!!

*2012-01-02, version 1.6.1*

Had great fun with this app! Would recommend! :)

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2012-01-02, version 1.6.1*

Sure, sometimes (when trying to move the green outline of the face) it can be difficult, but it's free! And it produces great results! It looks and performs like the best of its kind.
😄 Very happy I downloaded this! Fun to use!

### 5/5 — Great laugh

*2012-01-02, version 1.6.1*

I think it's a great app!! Lot if laughs with it. Get it!

### 4/5 — Great

*2012-01-02, version 1.6.1*

It works really well, but not very realistic.  It takes a little while to recognise the faces but you just tap where you want them and it works! Overall a great app if you just want to have a little joke!

### 1/5 — RUBBISH!!!!

*2013-02-02, version 1.6.1*

What the title says

### 1/5 — Another unnecessary app...

*2013-01-11, version 1.6.1*

UI is terrible idea is so primitive not user handy useful..

### 1/5 — FAIL

*2012-10-20*

Poor attempt at Face swap app. Just get the face swap app and don't waste your time with this. It might have been better if you had more control over where the faces went and how they were placed. Face swap does that. Get that, not this.

### 1/5 — Pile of 💩👎

*2012-02-06, version 1.6.1*

This is rubbish unless the faces are straight on, even then not great. I would be truly upset if I paid for this pile of 💩

### 1/5 — Hdidhchf

*2012-02-04, version 1.6.1*

Hate this app fix it it's really waful

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2012-02-01, version 1.6.1*

Not good!

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2012-02-01, version 1.6.1*

What a load of crap! The results are nothing like what's pictured and it's really fiddly to resize faces to fit. When you do so you often end up placing new faces all over the original photo.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2012-02-01, version 1.6.1*

Boring and silly app

### 1/5 — Update has made I worse

*2012-01-02, version 1.6.1*

This app was brilliant until they updated it. B4 the update you could edit the mask's so you could cut out the face to near perfection granted it was a bit time consuming but the end result was brill at the mo this is just a fun app when your on the lash with friends to have a bit of a laugh. Why not give us the option of being able to fully edit like in the Origional version and having the fun option as well Please .....! updates are supposed to be an improvement This update had gone back to the dark ages please do something

### 1/5 — The best review

*2012-01-02, version 1.6.1*

If I invented this app, I would take myself to b&q, buy a rope and hang myself... That is all
