Protect your face from AI recognition.
In seconds. For free.
One tap between sharing a photo and protecting your identity
Use your camera for a live selfie or import any photo from your library.
Advanced adversarial perturbation makes your face unrecognizable to AI — while looking identical to human eyes.
Adjust the level of protection — from subtle to maximum — and preview results in real time before saving.
Save your protected photo directly to your camera roll, ready to share anywhere.
All processing happens locally. Your photos never leave your phone. No account, no cloud, no data collection.
Real-time preview as you adjust settings. Protect a photo in just a few taps.
It takes about ten seconds
Launch reFaced on your iPhone.
Snap a selfie with the front camera or pick one from your photo library.
Use the intensity slider to tune your protection level and preview the result live.
Tap Save — your protected image is added to your camera roll.
Post it wherever you like. It looks like you. AI doesn't see you at all.
Facial recognition affects everyone who shares photos online — here's how reFaced helps
Every photo you post on Instagram, Facebook, X, or TikTok can be scraped and added to facial recognition databases — instantly linking your face to your name, location, and activity. reFaced lets you stay social while staying private.
Volleyball teams, running clubs, yoga studios, and community groups regularly post member photos on their websites and social pages. Members never consented to being publicly identifiable. reFaced lets you appear in team photos without being findable by strangers.
Sharing your photo on a dating app shouldn't mean anyone can reverse-search your face and find your real name, employer, or address before you're ready to share those details. reFaced lets you put yourself out there on your own terms.
Children's faces are crticial to protect. Photos shared by parents, schools, or clubs can be scraped and stored for years. reFaced protects children from being identified by strangers or predators through online searched, while the memories remain fully visible to family and friends.
For people rebuilding their lives after domestic abuse or stalking, being identified in a photo — even an old one — can be dangerous. reFaced allows survivors to have a visible online presence without giving abusers the tools to track them down.
In many parts of the world, being photographed at a protest, press event, or sensitive location can have serious consequences. reFaced lets you document and share without putting your identity — or your safety — at risk.
Facial search tools can link your LinkedIn headshot to your personal Instagram in seconds. reFaced lets you keep your professional and personal lives genuinely separate — so colleagues, recruiters, or clients can't cross-reference your profiles without your permission.
Photos from concerts, festivals, sports events, and tourist spots are routinely scraped and cross-referenced. You didn't sign a release just by attending. reFaced lets you share your experiences publicly without permanently anchoring your face to a time and place.
