Just tap any detected face and give it a name. The app will memorize the face and recognize it further. For best results, hold the device at arm's length. You may slowly rotate the head (or slowly change your location) for the app to memorize you at multiple views. The app can memorize several persons. If a face is not recognized, tap and name it again. The SDK is available for mobile developers: www.luxand.com/facesdk

Inbuilt face scanner and fingerprint scanner both are available in this app for truth or lie detection. The app also speaks in robotic voice. Also, you can see when using the app that if you remove your face, the scanner stops and resumes only when you bring face back. But this app is actually a prank. Though if you want to use face detection and record it's truth or lie detection, you can do it by unlocking that feature using in-app purchase. That recording is completely private. NOTE - PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS ON FIRST START CAREFULLY AS THEY WON'T APPEAR AGAIN DUE TO THE NATURE OF PRANK. MAINLY THAT IS PRESSING LEFT OF START DETECTION BUTTON WILL GIVE TRUTH AND PRESSING RIGHT WILL GIVE LIE.

Face Lie Detector holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.1.

Written reviews complicate that: 53% of Luxand Face Recognition's written reviews are positive against 23% of Face Lie Detector's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
