About HeyPhoto
HeyPhoto is a free, browser-based AI face editor from Icons8 that detects faces in a photo and lets you naturally adjust features like gaze direction, smile intensity, apparent age, gender, and facial expression, with makeup, nose reshaping, and new hairstyles on the way. It's aimed at everyday consumers and social-media users who want quick, no-skill facial tweaks rather than a full pro editor, and it stands out for its one-click Anonymize tool that alters faces to evade facial-recognition systems. Uploads are capped at 5 MB with faces up to 1024×1024 px, and free results carry a watermark.
