Best for making photos sing or talk on an iPhone

Avatarify animates a photo so it sings or talks, on iPhone only. The listing shows weekly prices from $2.49 to $5.49, a $3.99 monthly plan and a $34.99 yearly one, and which one you see depends on the offer the app shows.

Who Avatarify is for

  • 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

Who Avatarify is not for

  • 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

Why Avatarify gets a 2.0

Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.

  • BValue for money$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.
  • DFree plan and trialOnly some subscription options carry a 3-day trial, and there is no free plan. A 3-day trial is shorter than a week.
  • DFeaturesOne narrow function: animating a face in a photo to sing or talk, plus sharing.
  • BEase of useNo store rating is on record. It is an app you install and start using with nothing to set up.
  • CPlatforms and integrationsiPhone only. The site says it will email people when an Android app is ready.

Keep Avatarify, or make your own?

Keep it

To replace Avatarify you would be making a video model, which you can rent by the second but not make. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 106 of the 168 other AI image and video generators grade higher. It costs $129.48 a year.

What you could not

  • A video model, which you can rent by the second but not make.
  • A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page.
  • AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
  • Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.

What this rests on. Avatarify’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

What is Avatarify?

Avatarify is an iPhone app that turns a still photo into a short animated clip. Faces can sing, talk and lip-sync to a chosen song or audio, and clips are shared to social apps. The app is free to download with subscriptions sold in-app.

Worth knowing

  • 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.
