Preview your face swap while you edit
See how a replacement face looks in your video before exporting the whole clip. Change the source photo, play the scene, and check the result in ClapClip's desktop preview.
Free download. Export requires a purchase inside the app.
Compare source photos on the same scene
Choose a short section with a clear view of the face. Try another source photo if the angle or lighting looks wrong, then replay that section to compare.
Watch the face in motion
Check head turns, expressions and moments when a hand covers the face. Pause where an edge looks wrong. These checks are more useful than judging only a still frame.
Preview speed depends on your hardware
The preview runs on your Windows PC. Its speed depends on your GPU, media resolution and settings. Live webcam input has its own page; this workflow is for editing imported files.

Look closely before you export
Choose a clear face photo. In the preview, check where the person turns their head or covers their face. Look for uneven lighting and rough edges. Results and speed depend on the footage and your PC.

Does real-time mean the export is instant?
No. It describes the editing preview. Exporting the finished video is a separate step and takes time.
Can I use a webcam instead?
ClapClip also has a live webcam face-swap workflow. See the live face swap page for camera use.
