Do I need to mark the faces before swapping them?
No! For two-person photos, just say 'swap the two faces.' The AI automatically detects both faces and performs the swap. Only use markers in group photos with three or more people to specify which faces you want swapped.
How do I swap faces in a photo for free?
Upload a photo with two or more faces to EditThisPic and type 'swap the two faces in this photo.' The AI handles detection, swapping, and blending automatically in about 30 seconds. For single-face photos, add a reference image with the face you want and say 'replace this face with the reference.'
What is the best free AI face swap tool for realistic results?
EditThisPic offers free AI face swapping with automatic skin tone matching and lighting blending. Unlike basic cut-and-paste face swap apps, the AI blends facial features naturally, matching complexion, lighting direction, and facial proportions for convincing results. No signup required.
Is EditThisPic's AI faces swapper really free?

Can I swap faces on my phone?
Yes. EditThisPic works in any mobile browser — iPhone, Android, tablet. No app download needed.
Is my photo kept private when I swap faces?
Yes. Your photo is processed in real-time by the AI and is not stored on our servers after editing. No account is required to use the tool, and we don't collect or share your images. Your original file stays on your device.
How does EditThisPic compare to FaceApp for swapping faces?
EditThisPic uses AI that understands natural language, so you describe the edit you want instead of using complex tools. It works instantly in your browser with no software to install or learn. For swapping faces, you simply type what you want and the AI handles the rest in 20-45 seconds.
What's the most common use case for swapping faces?
Most users swap faces for social media content, professional work, or personal projects. The AI handles both simple and creative edits, so whether you need a quick fix or an artistic transformation, you can describe exactly what you want in plain English.
Can I swap faces for multiple photos at once?
Currently, EditThisPic processes one photo at a time for the best AI results. Upload each photo individually and use the same prompt — the process takes about 20-45 seconds per image. For large batches, a paid plan gives you unlimited edits without waiting.
What makes a good photo for swapping faces?
Well-lit photos with clear subjects produce the best results. Avoid heavily compressed or very small images. Front-facing angles typically work better than extreme side angles. The AI can work with most photos, but higher quality input means higher quality output.
What types of photos work best with this tool?
JPG, PNG, and WebP photos up to 7MB work best. The AI handles photos from any camera or phone. High-resolution images with good lighting produce the best results. Extremely dark, heavily compressed, or very small images may produce less precise edits.
Can I also smooth the skin in the same edit?
Yes! You can combine multiple edits in one prompt. For example, ask to swap faces and smooth the skin at the same time. The AI understands complex multi-step instructions. For very different changes, separate prompts may give better control over each edit.
