Real Deep is a combination of deep learning ML/AI technologies and computer vision heuristics tuned to run on your Apple device. You can make movies with Real Deep on iPhones and iPads made in the last 4 years, and on any Mac with ARM-based silicon. For real-time face swaps, a device released within the last 2 years is recommended. For face swap videos in 4K, a device with at least 6GB of memory is recommended. When you run the app for the first time, a one-time request is sent to Apple's servers to provision the app. Afterwards, Real Deep fully functions in airplane mode because it does not send your media to any servers for processing. Real Deep has been meticulously engineered from the ground up to operate in an offline and privacy-preserving manner.

### 1/5 — Trash keeps crashing

*2026-04-08, version 1.7.10*

This app is terrible
It just crashes over and over even after you’ve paid $20.00

### 5/5 — Best one with one time payment

*2026-03-29, version 1.7.10*

The best out there without needing any tokens or subscription.

### 1/5 — someone said best app of its kind??? outta their mind

*2025-12-21*

complete waste of $20. Faceswap is terrible! Find out for yourself. I’ll remove this for my money back.

### 5/5 — What changed

*2025-05-22*

I really liked this app but now it can only do 4-second clips? Why the change? Unfortunately, it’s not worth the money anymore.

EDIT

My mistake. The 4-second limit was before I restored my purchase. This app is a great value being a one-time purchase. I recommend highly.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2025-05-06*

Using on an M4 iPad Pro with paid video upgrade.  It seems to do maybe a 30% blend of the new face image - i.e. it still looks mostly like the original face.  Not sure if the AI would benefit from multiple source images, but I had really hoped the app would have had the ability to render a whole new face in the video. And no support online, no discussion forum, tips etc.

### 4/5 — Great app with the right reference

*2025-04-06*

Works really well if you have a good reference to swap. Love that it does all the work locally and in real time. Couple wishes though:

-batch swapping would be a big time saver 

-having the Mac app work on older Intel Macs would be nice 

-swapping the whole head instead of the face but I understand the difficulty here 

Great app and would recommend for some fun videos.

**Developer response:** True! We really appreciate (and agree with) your review and suggestions. Please feel free to send us an email at support@realtimedeepfake.com if you run into any problems. Thanks again for your review!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on M1 MacBook Pro 16”

*2025-01-04, version 1.7.8*

Couldn’t get it to work for more than a few seconds.  Crashes when I try to get out of the demo.

### 4/5 — Easy to use and works well

*2024-12-11*

Im glad the app continues working well. Performance is touchy but that could be my phone.  Certain angles work better than others. You have to experiment to get the most seamless output.  Sometimes it crashes or has stability issues.  It doesn’t do well with people looking up.

**Developer response:** Could you please contact us at support@realtimedeepfake.com with a short description of the problem? Please include your iPhone/iPad/Mac model and iOS version. We will fix the problem asap. Thank you.

### 2/5 — Great App only 50% completed

*2024-10-25*

Updating my prior review.   This is a great simple app that works very well.   

It works locally, so no need to establish an on-line account.   It's very fast.   

The only drawback is the lack of documentation, so it took me some trial and error to understand.   The file exchange is your Photos app.   This is where you upload and download your videos and images.

### 1/5 — The Quality is Garbage

*2024-09-22*

It’s like this app is not even trying to get better. The face swap is not believable. It morphs and deforms your face, then turns it into a low resolution mess. Stay away from this app! Even if you are curious, find another app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We will try to improve.
