Before installing any of these apps, understand what they are: Apps that "show your baby's face" are a joke, not a prediction.. They take two photos, blend the features with an artificial intelligence filter, and return a plausible image of a baby. There's no gene analysis, no testing, and no scientific backing. It's just fun to share with the family.
With that expectation adjusted, the joke is great. And it became very popular precisely because the result is convincing enough to elicit laughter — but just changing one of the photos, or even its angle, makes the "baby" look completely different.
Below, we've compiled a list of five apps currently available in app stores, detailing what each one does, their cost, and where to download them.
Create a Baby: AI Predictor
It's the best-known app in its category on Android. You upload a photo of yourself and one of your partner, choose the baby's gender, and the app generates the baby's face by combining features from the two images.
It's simple to use: two good quality photos, a tap on generate, and you're done. Then you can save it to your gallery, apply frames, and send it via WhatsApp or social media. You can also have fun with photos of friends or famous people, which usually results in more amusement than the "serious" test.
What he actually is: An AI-powered assembly generator. The word "predictor" in the name is marketing; the app doesn't predict anything. Price: Free, with ads and optional in-app purchases. Where to download: android.
What will my child be like?
This one is entirely in Portuguese and has the cleanest interface on the list. You tap on two frames, upload the photos, and receive the collage in seconds, without any intermediate menus.
It works well on simpler cell phones and doesn't require registration for the basic test, which helps those who just want to try it out once and show it to someone.
What he actually is: It's an automatic photo montage. The app itself presents itself as entertainment. No real characteristics of the child can be deduced from the image. Price: Free, with in-app purchases. Where to download: android.
Future Baby: AI Baby Generator
Future Baby gives you more control over the outcome. In addition to the two photos, you define the baby's gender, skin tone, and apparent age in the montage, and the app keeps a history of the generated images to compare attempts.
All this control is, in practice, the best demonstration that it's all just a game: if you choose the color of your skin, eyes, and hair, the "result" is your decision, not a hereditary calculation.
What he actually is: An AI-powered image editor. Price: Free, with optional subscription. Where to download: android.
AI baby face generator
Despite having a Portuguese name (from Portugal), it works perfectly in Brazil. The difference here is the image quality: the app delivers photos with a more realistic appearance, with well-defined lighting and skin texture.
This is precisely why a warning is in order. The more realistic the result, the easier it is for someone to take it seriously. If you share it, make it clear that it's a computer-generated image.
What he actually is: An AI-powered image generator, with no relation to genetics. Price: Free, with in-app purchases. Where to download: android.
AI Baby Generator – BabyS (iPhone)
iPhone users have fewer options, and this is the highest-rated one today. It works the same way as its Android competitors: two photos, a few adjustments, and the collage is ready in seconds, with the option to save and share.
What he actually is: An entertainment app with an AI filter. Price: Free to download, with optional subscription. Where to download: app store.
Tips for better assembly
- Use front-facing photos, with good lighting and a simple background;
- No glasses, hats, or hands covering part of the face;
- Recent photos provide more reference points for the filter;
- Generate the data two or three times with different photos: comparing the results makes it clear how much they vary.
Privacy Policy
Almost all of these apps send photos to servers on the internet for image processing. Read the privacy policy before using them, prefer apps that offer image deletion after use, and do not send photos of other people, especially children, without permission.
Conclusion
There are several options for playing around with imagining a future baby's face, and all five above are available in official app stores and are free to start. Each has its own unique features: interface in Portuguese, skin tone control, realistic finish, or simplicity.
None of them have the ability to predict. A child's appearance depends on the genetic combination of the parents, something that can only be known at birth—and no cell phone filter can anticipate it. Take the result for what it is: a fun montage, made to elicit laughter, not to generate expectations.
