Pick Avatarify if

  • Fits if you want to make a short singing or talking clip from a photo on an iPhone
  • Works for people who will cancel before the 3-day trial ends

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you use Android, as there is no Android app yet
  • Watch out: many subscription price points appear, so the price depends on the offer shown
  • Pricey if the app shows a weekly plan, which can run $5.49 a week
  • Too light for anything beyond animating a face from a photo

Pick DeepSwap if

  • Fits if you want to swap faces in a short video clip

Look elsewhere if

How we grade them

2.0GPAAvatarifyFair1.6GPADeepSwapWeak
Value for money
B$3.99 a month and $34.99 a year are cheap against the category's $11.88 middle, but the weekly options at $2.49 to $5.49 come to far more a month.
C$19.99 for a month of access, or $99.99 for a year, with 20 credits in each month. The monthly price is in the category's dearer quarter, and the credit count is small.
Free plan and trial
DOnly some subscription options carry a 3-day trial, and there is no free plan. A 3-day trial is shorter than a week.
FThe pricing page states no free plan or trial.
Features
DOne narrow function: animating a face in a photo to sing or talk, plus sharing.
CVideo, photo and GIF face swap, video generation, image tools and VR face swap. A big part of the work still costs credits on a 20-credit allowance.
Ease of use
BNo store rating is on record. It is an app you install and start using with nothing to set up.
CNo store rating is on record. It is a web tool with a credit meter to watch.
Platforms and integrations
CiPhone only. The site says it will email people when an Android app is ready.
CWeb and Android. There is no iPhone app, desktop app or integration listed.

Worth knowing

Avatarify

  • The App Store listing says the app is for iPhone only; the site says it will email people when an Android app is ready.
  • The listing shows many subscription price points, so the price depends on which offer the app presents.
  • Billing periods are inferred from the product names in the listing.

DeepSwap

  • Pro access is a time pass with a small credit allowance (20 credits), and every action spends credits.
  • Video face swap costs 1 credit per 15 seconds, so the monthly allowance covers about 5 minutes of footage.
  • The pricing page states no free plan or trial, so none is listed.
  • Face swapping of real people raises consent and legal questions that the user has to manage.

More comparisons

How this page was made

  • The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
  • The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
  • Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
  • The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
