Face Mosaic
Read full descriptionHide full description
Mosaic the face. Or everything but it. Live, on camera. 50 effects running in real time. No editing. What you see is what you get. FACE MASK : : : Flip to the front camera and the app finds your face with Apple's TrueDepth tracking — the full 3D mesh, not a rectangle. Three modes: mosaic just the face, mosaic everything except the face, or mosaic the whole frame. Two dials: SIZE opens the mask wider than the mesh, SOFT feathers the edge. The mask holds through turns, tilts and fast movement, because it's tracked at 60 Hz, not detected every few frames. Everything happens on the device. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored. MOSAIC : : : Mosaic Glass. Mosaic Round. Mosaic Glass Fine. Mosaic Blend. Circle Drop. Circle Packing. Quad Blocks. Shatter. LED Screen. Pixelate. Triangles. Diamond. Hex Dots. Honeycomb. Brick. Radial Mosaic. Depth Ramp. Cells break, pack, tile and stack. Radial Mosaic winds its rings out from your face. Depth Ramp keeps cells tight on the face and lets them grow toward the edges of the frame. DOTS : : : Halftone. Halftone Color. Halftone Pop. Stipple. Cross Hatch. Cross Dots. Bayer Dither. Newsprint. Photocopy. Comic. Print rasters, ordered dithering and a real CMYK newsprint screen with all three plates at their proper angles. LINES : : : Ink Lines. Chalk Lines. Pencil. Blueprint. Contour. Radial Lines. Spirals in yellow, magenta and vermilion. Moving waves in acid green, cyan and violet. The spirals turn, and they turn around your face. Vermilion opens two of them — one per eye. Radial Lines throws rays out from the head. Contour reads the frame as a topographic map. FX : : : Digital Rain. ASCII. Cartoon. Thermal. Night Vision. Edge Glow. CRT. Slice Glitch. Ripple. Droste Soft. SHOOT : : : Photos while recording — the still matches the frame exactly. 1080 x 1920, 30 or 60 fps, with sound. No length limit. Front and back camera. Straight to your photo library. No watermark, ever. Point. Pick. Record. MOSAIC PRO : : : Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. Weekly - 4.99 USD per week. Annual - 39.99 USD per year, with a 7-day free trial. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ https://sites.google.com/view/awesome-world-app/face-mosaic-camera-fx-pp

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SplitRig at none against Face Mosaic's 2. Face Mosaic's advantage is iOS requirement (16.6 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
