For fans of selfie photo taking, I have news and updates to share with you folks, the popular Microsoft Selfie App is updated with social sharing and 8 new Asian languages. The Microsoft Selfie App was released in December 2015 and it is among the best apps for iOS with over a million download.
Let me share with you some key information and details from the Microsoft blog post article –
New portrait enhancement technique called Digital Face Clean, which intelligently removes undesired features like wrinkles and baggy eyelids, while preserving desired characteristics like hair, moustaches, tattoos and accessories.
- Support for a total of 31 languages, including Chinese (Traditional), Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Thai, Vietnamese, or Hindi.
- Easier social sharing;
- Updated user interface;
- Selfie stick compatibility;
- Timer to capture the perfect selfie.
First launched in December 2015, the app has already been downloaded more than a million times, and differentiates itself from other selfie apps by leveraging Microsoft Research’s Face API.
The technology helps determine the age, gender, and skin tone of a person, and avoids the exaggerated refinements that limit the effectiveness of other selfie apps.
The Microsoft Face API is part of the Microsoft Cognitive Services, a suite of intelligent APIs that also powers other popular experiences like How-Old.net, TwinsOrNot.net and MyMoustache.net.
