Is Viral App, FaceApp safe? This has been the question on the mind of many people as it has been giving millions of users the power to change their facial expressions, looks, and now age for several years.

At the same time, people have been giving FaceApp the power to use their pictures — and names — for any purpose it wishes, for as long as it desires.

Over 100,000 million people have downloaded the app from Google Play. And FaceApp is now the top-ranked app on the iOS App Store in 121 countries, according to App Annie and people are wondering if it is safe.

It is not just paranoia bro, the basis of their fear is well found. Have you ever been seen a video you didn’t make. With your face and it looked so real that you would find it almost impossible to refute.

Such technology is on the rise now, just imagine what can be accomplished with such a technology in a world that relays so much on appearances.

Even the faces of you and I in the wrong hands can do damage (and we never blow). Such technology has so improved that the face of a person on a Live streaming video can be swapped, now imagine the consequences of the face and voice of a top world political figure in the wrong capable hands wink

Make my words; In the nearest future, fake news would be overtaken by deep fake videos.

When does your face becomes theirs? After you have clicked on save and the picture now has FaceApp watermark? Cos what I do is to screenshot after the face has changed and then cancel and exit.

You will notice that It doesn't work without Internet connection. When you want to perform any task on a selected picture, you will see processing....at this moment, It is been uploaded to their database..... So they have millions of pictures in their Data base now.

Just curious...

People complaining about using FaceApp and them having access to users details and faces, are we not using Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat and even WhatsApp on daily basis?

Why are we not concerned about our privacy uploading our pictures and all our details on them every day?

Or is it because they didn't tell us they have access to our details on their T and C and we believed they don't??

Just curious, can you enlighten me?

People don't even understand how bad this is. They can use your picture for ads without paying you any royalty. How bizarre is that?

Peep the picture below.

Rogues like Gandollar will simply dismiss the evidence in that video with a wave of the hand.
