→Frequently asked questions
- How do I swirl faces in a photo?
- Upload your image and every face is detected and swirled automatically. Adjust the swirl amount if needed, then export.
- Does it swirl every face in the image?
- Yes. The AI finds each face in the photo and applies a separate swirl to every one.
- How big is each swirl?
- Each swirl is sized to fit the detected face. Use the expand slider to grow it by a percentage past the face.
- How do I make the swirl stronger or reverse it?
- Raise the amount slider for a tighter twist. Negative values swirl in the opposite direction.
- Can I use this to hide someone's identity?
- A strong swirl makes faces hard to recognize. For reliable anonymization, use Blur Faces or Pixelate Faces instead.
- What file formats can I export?
- You can export as PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, BMP, or HEIC.
- Is this tool free to use?
- Yes — completely free, no account needed. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Downloads have no watermarks.
