FACEMOTION3D captures facial expressions and head movements with the camera on your iPhone or iPad, helping you create animations for 3D characters. On devices that support ARKit face tracking, such as iPhone X, you can use Apple ARKit for high-precision facial tracking. Devices without ARKit face tracking support can also track facial movements using Google MediaPipe and the front camera. Connect to DAZ Studio, Maya, Unity, Unreal Engine, or Blender in real time to bring your expressions and movements to 3D characters on your PC. FACEMOTION3D also works with many PC applications that support VRM avatars, letting you control your character's expressions and head movements in real time. Transfer motion recorded in the app to compatible PC software and apply it as animation, or export it in FBX format. You can also import VRM models and animate your characters within the app. To connect to PC software, install the appropriate receiver plugin, script, or add-on, or configure the connection settings in that software. When connecting over a network, make sure your iPhone or iPad and PC are on the same network. For detailed instructions and information about compatible software, visit the official website: https://www.facemotion3d.net/ Face tracking is processed on your device and requires permission to access the camera. Information captured by the camera is used for face tracking, the in-app display, recording and export, and sending motion data to the connected PC. When you use the recording or saving features, data such as captured motion, recorded audio, videos of the camera feed, and screen recordings are saved on your device.

You can use our studio to shoot and record as a VTuber right from your phone. With our advanced facial motion capture technology, you can bring your virtual identity to life in any way you like - whether it's a cute, silly, or scary avatar. 3.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Hyper at 4.6 against FACEMOTION3D's 3.3. Hyper also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 35) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). FACEMOTION3D's advantage is iOS requirement (13.2 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. FACEMOTION3D sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Hyper sells 25 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Hyper holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Hyper has 11K ratings behind it against 35, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 36% of FACEMOTION3D's written reviews are positive against 39% of Hyper's.
FACEMOTION3D ships an update every 2 months, Hyper every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
