Face app experiences


Kelli321

Recommended Posts

I’m curious what others experiences are with face app. Is it even close at guessing what you’d look like as a woman? .. I did it and I can definitely see me in the photo, in fact I started crying even, if that is even close to what I can grow into.. don’t wanna get my hopes up though

Not an experiance. As I would NEVER use such an instument.

 

Not because of the potential legal implications. I doubt if they have changed the T&C's in the favor of the user since this was last spoken about in here But because of the false sense of what you could be. Granted you may see some of you in there. This is because the template was your own face.

 

 

Heres the terms and conditions that makes the most of what you give them.

Further, FaceApp does not claim ownership of any User Content that you post on or through the Services. You grant FaceApp a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, fully paid license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, create derivative works from, distribute, perform and display your User Content during the term of this Agreement solely to provide you with the Services.

 

So what it basically means is. You can keep the original content. Thats your face. But you give them the right and this is forever to use the picture you create to use  as they see fit.

 

 

I  also wrote some on this before regarding the terms and conditions. Save you searching let me give you an insight.

So say for instance just as a senario. You are in your own closet. Faceapp can use your picture of you as male or female whichever the case maybe on a bill board across the road from you for all to see and there is not a darn thing you can do about it. To top that they do not even have to pay you royalitys for said use.

 

 

So just be careful what you knowing or unknowningly agree to. Read the small print.

 

Section 4 if your interested

 

 

 

if you use face app or such like then good luck to you. But do not forget they do not make these apps just so a person can see what they look like as whatever. They do it to make money. never be under the illusion they do it because they are kind and would never do anything to harm anyone. There goal is just to build up a nice fat bank balance. I have been in the corperate world for a while. Its not a place for the faint hearted at times as they will walk all over you if its in there interest. Remember Cambridge Analytica? Data harvesting for there own personal gain. Its much the same but Cambridge Analytica was asking questions disguised as a personality quiz to suck your personal information out of you.

 

Also:

 

Dont expect you are ever going to look like how the app shows what you will look like if you go through the process of a real world transition. Sorry to shatter anyones dreams but thats the way it is.

 

Again show me someone who looks as face app showed them after a transition. I will concede and eat humble pie by the metric ton.

I have never used it but, although tweaked things a bit in programs like Gimp from time to time (normal offline photo editing), more usually like to play with makeup when I get the time as the results can be used when going out (at least the sensible ones lol). My opinion of most of the resulting photos, which are are often of teenage girls, is that they smooth the skin etc to make someone look much younger. I would doubt anything other than major cosmetic surgery would make such a difference and that would be risky, very expensive and, in the long run, a temporary result as skin continues to age. In my opinion such programs are designed to apeal to the vanity of the user and also as Maid in Bedlam implies, actually get the company a database of mugshots as they can probably easily reverse the process to get the original picture (which may well be stored at the beginning anyway).

Have seen a number of people post on Twitter that they think they looked better than FaceApp predicted before and after transition. 

 

Luckily no billboards across the street from me yet, let alone one with my faceapp pics on it.

I've used it, and was horrified by the results. It aged me twenty years!  No I didn't likee lol. Snapchat filters are much more flattering haha.

Link to comment

I make an effort to avoid things like FaceApp and don't even have snapchat. I don't alter or touch up any of my photos. I make it a point to put myself out there so as not to mislead people and make someone else feel bad about themselves. The filtered/face app pics I've seen are pretty cringe. Like someone takes a selfie, runs it thru face app, then posts it all proud, "look at me!" Then they go on being depressed that they don't look like that. 

So no, you likely won't grow into whatever face app gives you. But that is not a bad thing. Whatever you get will be good and you can be happy with the results.

Hi @Kelli321  I view those kind of things as just for entertainment. When I did the FaceApp I got this. Real me on the left and face app me on the right. Nothing alike or even close. I really wish I looked like that. Lol

Since I’m not out yet this is what came out. Aside from the narrower jaw and the hair it’s pretty close.. I will have facial feminization to be sure,  just for my own self image and how I see myself as but I feel it’s within the realm of possibility .... if anything, I can look at that face and not see a complete stranger... seems fun anyhow...

Don’t get me wrong, those apps are OK and they do make people feel good, it’s just that they can’t predict with any accuracy what someone will look like. I talked with a plastic surgeon on the phone and she told me that even the best plastic surgeon in the world can’t make you look exactly like the person in the photo. I know I about cried when she told me that. Anyway, these apps are fun to play with and if it makes you feel better than you shouldn’t stop using them. I think if it makes you happy, do it. Lol

It gives me a little hope. Though I’ll be wearing wigs for the rest of my days.. lol.. though it’ll be nice to be proud of my “female” hips and butt instead of being the butt of jokes ... at least I have that going for me ;-p

Kelli, I hope I didn't discourage you. That wasn't my intention, not at all. I just wanted to point out that they shouldn't be your only go to for how you want to look. I haven't seen the real you but I can bet you are absolutely beautiful. I just wanted you to know that you don't need any app to tell you how you should want to look. And as far as having to wear a wig, well, my hair is thinning on top and I am going to be living with wigs until I die. There are more than a few friends here that have to do the same. And don't get me started on hips and my butt. Still waiting on those to develop. The only thing I see happening is that my "man" belly is slowly going away, THANK GOD! lol!

I agree with this. Lifes far to short. The point i was making is. Just be careful what you sign up for and if it may have concequences good or bad then be preapared for them.

 

I would still never use it myself as maybe I wouldnt be able to take the fact that i could find myself on the back of a milk carton or in a russian catalogue for sex toys or even something more ghastly and not get paid or get any positive credit for it.  Sad as it may seem none of this is done from the goodness of someones heart but all for profit. Plus dont expect you will look like how an app depicts you. As @Holly Elizabeth says, no plastic surgeon in the world is going to be able to give you the results you have been shown. So be able to handle that news. Its not really going to happen. Playing with these things can give you a false hope situation. No one needs or wants that. I always thought I was going to have the looks of audrey hepburn and a body to match.  How disilusioned was I? and i aslo agree. @Kelli321 you picture looks awesome

Believe me, I’m a realist. I truly appreciate the feedback. Until I came here I was totally lost and now I feel encouraged. That I’m having conversation with the very people who’s example I wish to follow, and being accepted into this community of amazing and courageous women has done more for me mentally and spiritually in the last few weeks than the rest of my life combined.

Just remember Kelli Every persons transition is unique to them. Consider it more a guide. What i did and what happened to me personally will be a little diffrent to what others may have experianced. The emotions, The life experiances, The expectations Etc etc. Follow your own heart but while on that road you may see signs and milestones dotted about what have been left by others before you. Some will aid you towald your own emerald city. Watch out for the witches and stick to the path. You will make it if you want to.

 

As far as wigs are concerned your are not alone. I was lucky enough to have almost all my hair when i came to the start of my path. Some are abot in the same position. You do what you have to.  Or you could go forwald in the style of @LusciousTheLock and enjoy it. But whatever you do give it your personal best.

I think I'm immune to the faceapp thingy... Sweaty me versus the feminine version... Apparently.

Awe, thanks. If only I could have the bloomin prickly stuff stop growing on my face. Just about scrape through an 8hr shift at work. Shaving everyday does get sore. I tend to let myself go a bit at weekends. Roll on the Laser shops reopening!

I used Faceapp for a bit of fun and this was the result.

But honestly, I think I prefer my profile picture which is all me, with just a little photomagic makeup.

      My view is we are "dependent" on government, because as a society, we are too lazy to stay actively involved. So, we let politicians do our bidding for us.  I think we'd be in a better place government wise if we policed the actions of our politicians.  We elected them; they work for us.  Sadly, we are allowing them to run amok.  We are where we are because we have chosen to let politicians make all decisions without us.  Remember "by the people, for the people?" That was the intent of our democracy.  Today, however, it is "by the politicians, for the politicians," the people be damned.

      "Play Ball! Batter Up!" is the closing line of the National Anthem as far as I'm concerned. It's the call of the Home Plate Umpire and signals the start of the game. I grew up in the TV and Radio broadcast of the St. Louis Cardinals. Harry Caray, Jack Buck, Tim McCarver, and Mike Shannon, were the voices on my transistor radio. KMOX 1120 AM pushing 50,000 watts of Class A clear-channel non-directional signal. It could be picked up all across MO, IL, IN to the East. KS, OK, CO to the West. IA, MN to the North, and KY, TN, AR to the South. There has always been a rivalry against the Chicago Cubs, in the National League. As for the American League, I have to pull for the Kansas City Royals. I've also been a Little League Umpire, and fan of everything the Little League stands for. Going to Williamsport, PA and seeing the Little League World Series is in my top 10 things to do on my bucket list.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Good evening everyone,   I don't think my mother ever cooked a meal that I didn't like. We also had a kitchen where mom fixed the food, dad filled your plate, and you eat it. It wasn't until our baby brother was born that we could have Pop-Tarts for snacks. Before that all snacks had to meet mom's approval, and in her opinion wouldn't prevent you from eating supper.   Well my day started off on a good note, but has become frustrating because my IT person didn't transfer my saved videos I use for teaching. Then I found out that they didn't save any of my book marks for websites I use frequently.   Best wishes, stay motivated,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      The number is relative to method of deliver, the time of the dose, and when the blood is drawn. However, I do want to keep away from DVT and other potential issues. I assume I may be getting backed down from my current dose, but my doc told me to stick with the higher dose, so? I also wonder if this has anything to do the my breast growth and mental changes that have been happening over the past few years, like I have some estrogen sensitivity so a little goes a long way or something? I don't have enough data to postulate, but who knows!   With weekly, subcutaneous, shots you expect to see big swings of serum level estradiol from shot to peak to trough. My doctor is interested in mid-week testing (for E and T levels only), which would be post-peak blood serum levels but they will be higher than trough. Most, if not all, resources I've seen online is to measure at trough (which I might do just to do it next time) along with a SHBG, LH, and other metrics.   This is from transfemscience.org for Estradiol valerate in oil, which is very spiky compared to some other estradiol combinations. It's also for intramuscular, which will have a slower uptake and is usually dosed in higher volume due to the slower absorption rate from muscles. They don't have subcutaneous numbers, which I would expect to see similar spikes but higher levels at similar doses due to the relatively higher absorption rate direct from fat.   Are you doing pills, shots, or patches? And when you do get your levels checked are you getting that done when your levels are lowest or some other time?

      Both of my parents were from the “North Shore” of Boston.  My mother Lynn and my father Swampscot.  They had an early 1900s Scots-Irish New England diet.  My sister and I were born in the 40s in Ohio well away from New England seafood and in an area where food was more German and Polish.  My first experience with liver and onions was during basic training.  They ate salt cod but never forced us to eat it same with oysters.  My dad ate oysters but my mother wouldn’t.  Anyone who ever ate an oyster can figure that one out.  I grew up eating lamb.  My wife won’t touch it. I love brazed ox tail, again no way. And the list goes on.

      My mother was German, so yes, I think it was a cultural thing.  If I'd known you when we were cleaning out my mother's place, I could have sent you her "threat jar".

      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
    • Ashley0616
      I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out. 
    • MaeBe
      I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

      Every week I've been excited to take my shot, so it's never been an issue. Yesterday, however, I woke up and started my usual "slow roll" and then suddenly realized I had breakfast plans that I had to rush out the door for. After, it was straight into work calls, and then I got the notification from the doctor about things being too high and all the while my mind had completely slipped that I needed take my shot.   Given that I am not asking for medical advice, but sharing my journey, I will note my results: Estradiol at 447 pg/mL and Testosterone was 23 ng/dL, up and down from 26 pg/mL and 526 ng/dL respectively before treatment. Almost flipped the bit! The doc would like my Estradiol closer to 300 pg/mL, so we'll see what Monday's tests state.   Oh, and I teased the dinner with old soccer teammates and never updated the thread! It went well. There were a couple funny moments. One guy, who I was worried about their response, greeted me with "Hey, you've lost some weight!" 😎 And a friend who lives near me picked me up on the way to dinner exclaimed, after we learned one of the invitees might show up with a date, "Wait! We could have brought women?!" To which I instantly responded, "You kind of did, bringing me!" Everyone got a good laugh out of that. 😁

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets. 
    • missyjo
      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you
