Many apps have been created to satisfy the curiosity of knowing what we will be like in a few decades. We've selected four of them to show you in [link/video]. Photos, an older version of himself — and all were checked out in stores before being included on this list.
A word of warning right from the start: classics like Oldify, AgingBooth, and HourFace have been removed from Google Play and are now only available on the App Store. That's why they're not included, and we explain what happened to each one at the end of the text.
4 apps to age your face in photos
All four are available for Android and iPhone and are free to download. The differences lie in the billing model: two display ads, and all sell something within the app.
1. FaceApp
A favorite among those seeking this type of effect, FaceApp converts a regular photo into a much older version of the face, with wrinkles, sagging skin, and gray hair convincingly applied.
The age filter is just one part of the package. The app also shows your younger version, changes your apparent gender, adds a beard, hairstyles, makeup, and a smile, and even creates collages and GIFs with the transformations.
Where to download: Google Play and the App Store, for free. The Play Store listing indicates... in-app purchases and it doesn't display any ads. Many of the filters depend on FaceApp PRO, which is available on the App Store starting at R$ 25.00, with an annual plan at R$ 119.90.
2. FaceLab
FaceLab, from Lyrebird Studio, is the most dedicated to the topic: the store's name itself is "FaceLab: Age, Hair, Beard". You send a selfie and choose how far you want to advance time, with results in a few seconds.
In addition to aging, it allows you to test haircuts, beards, and even a bald version, resulting in good side-by-side comparisons. The files can be saved in high resolution and shared directly on social networks.
Where to download: Google Play and App Store, with free download. The Play Store listing indicates that the app contains advertisements and has in-app purchases. The weekly subscription on the App Store starts at R$ 49.90, so pay attention before accepting the free trial.
3. Old Me
Old Me has a streamlined approach: to simulate an aging face in just a few taps. Simply choose a photo from your gallery or take one on the spot and let the app process the transformation, without complicated menus.
It works best with the face facing forward, well-lit, and without sunglasses. You can also compare the before and after on the same screen, which helps to see what the effect actually changed.
Where to download: Google Play and the App Store, free of charge. The Play Store listing includes warnings that the app contains advertisements and has in-app purchases.
4. Age Your Photo
The idea here is to give you control over your final age. You upload the photo, choose how old you want to look, and the app returns an aged portrait, instead of always applying the same time jump.
Since the processing happens in stages, it's possible to generate multiple ages from the same image and create a timeline of your own face — the most fun aspect of this type of app.
Where to download: Google Play and the App Store, for free. The Play Store listing indicates... in-app purchases and does not display the ad notification. On the App Store, the function to change the age appears as a separate purchase of R$ 4.90.
Oldify, AgingBooth, and HourFace: what has changed?
If you searched for these three names and didn't find anything on Google Play, it wasn't your imagination: none of them are still listed for Android. They remain only on the App Store, so they only work on iPhone and iPad.
- Oldify: It's still on the App Store, but it is paid — It costs R$ 6.90, and also includes in-app purchases. It is no longer a free option, as was stated in older texts.
- Aging Booth: Available for free on the App Store, with no in-app purchases, featuring the same simple interface as always and the gesture of shaking the device to see the original photo.
- HourFace: 3D Aging Photo: Also available for free on the App Store, this app focuses on aging with a three-dimensional effect. The result is improved when the face is viewed from the front, forehead exposed, and with good lighting.
In other words: if you use Android, the four suggestions at the beginning of the text are the way to go. If you use an iPhone, you can still turn to these veteran apps, remembering that Oldify charges for downloads.
Tips for a better result
Regardless of the app chosen, some simple choices significantly change the quality of aging:
- Use a photo with the face facing forward, occupying a good portion of the frame.
- Opt for natural light and avoid harsh shadows on only one side of your face.
- Remove glasses, hats, and anything else covering your forehead or chin area.
- Before accepting a free trial, check the price and subscription renewal details directly on the store's website.
