DeepSwap vs FaceApp (2026): which should you pick?

Pick DeepSwap if

• Fits if you want to swap faces in a short video clip
• Works for people who prefer a one-year pass with no auto-renewal

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want to try it free, as no free plan or trial is listed
• Tight if you work with long footage, as 20 credits covers about 5 minutes of video
• Watch out: every action spends credits, so extras cost on top
• Watch out: swapping real people raises consent and legal questions you have to manage
• Not for you if you use an iPhone, as there is no iOS app listed

Pick FaceApp if

• Fits if you want quick face filters on your phone
• Works for people who do not mind a paid tier for the rest of the filters

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: PRO prices are shown without a billing period
• Watch out: store reviews mention charges after the 3-day trial
• Skip it if you want a web or desktop version, as it is phones only
• Tight if you stay free, as which filters remain free is not stated

DeepSwap

• 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.

FaceApp

• The App Store lists FaceApp PRO at $10, $20, $60 and $100 without saying which is monthly, yearly or one-time.
• A Google Play developer reply says an ad-supported way to unlock some filters is being tested and that many filters are free in the Showcase folder.
