AuthEye — AI Face Detector Your photos never leave your phone. All analysis happens entirely on-device. AuthEye uses advanced on-device AI to instantly detect whether a face in a photo is real or AI-generated. In a world where AI-generated faces are becoming indistinguishable from real ones, AuthEye gives you the power to verify what you're seeing. Whether you're checking a profile picture, verifying a WhatsApp forward, or protecting yourself from identity fraud — AuthEye gives you an instant, private answer. HOW IT WORKS Simply select a photo from your gallery or take one with your camera. AuthEye detects the face and analyses it using a custom-trained AI model, giving you a confidence score showing how likely the face is real or AI-generated. WHAT IT DETECTS AuthEye is trained to detect faces generated by today's most popular AI image generation tools including Gemini, Grok, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, and StyleGAN — as well as AI face manipulation and synthesis techniques. FEATURES Instant real/fake detection with confidence percentage Detects faces from popular AI image generation tools Multi-face detection — analyse everyone in a group photo Works completely on-device — no photos uploaded to any server Camera and gallery support No account or login required Clean, simple interface PRIVACY FIRST AuthEye processes everything locally on your device using on-device machine learning. Your photos are never uploaded, stored, or shared. No account required. No internet connection needed. AuthEye is designed for personal use to help identify potentially AI-generated face images. Results should be used as a guide and not as definitive proof of authenticity.

The clearest difference is update cadence: AuthEye at daily against Pass's every 3 months. Pass's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
