All about Apps to see how Older You would be

Have you ever stopped to imagine what your look will be like in 20, 30 or even 50 years? Will we have those striking expression lines of our grandparents? Or maybe a stylish look with silver hair? Well, technology is here to feed our curiosity!

Today, the wave of apps that show us getting older took over the networks. It's a new profile photo, it's a meme, it's people scaring each other and people thinking they're great! And behind all this fun, there is a really cool technology that combines artificial intelligence to create an image that gives a taste of what the future could hold for us.

If you're also dying of curiosity (and, between us, who isn't?), you've come to the right place! In this article, we'll discover the most popular free apps that take us on this fun journey through time. So, are you ready to face the mirror of the future? Come with us on this virtual adventure! 

How artificial intelligence and graphic design work together to create an aged image 

AI, like a curious child, “learns” by looking at thousands (sometimes millions!) of photos of people at different ages. Thus, she understands how facial features change over the years.

When you upload your photo to the app, the AI analyzes your face, looking at things like the shape of the eyes, mouth, nose and even marks and moles. It uses this analysis to predict how you might age.

After the AI makes the “sketch” of how you would look older, graphic design comes in. He is the one who does the touch-ups, adding more realistic wrinkles, changing the texture of the skin, and giving that gray hair effect.

The design also connects to the style your photo, such as lighting and color, so that changes appear natural. This way, it doesn't look like it was poorly assembled!

Using these applications safely 

Before downloading, take a look at the app's privacy policy. I know, I know, it's a lot of text. But that's when you'll know how the app uses your photos and data. When the app asks for access to your camera or gallery, think twice. Does it really need this to work?

Showing your elderly self can be cool, but remember: once on the internet, always on the internet. If you don't feel comfortable, don't share. Always download apps from App Store or Google Play. Avoid dubious links that promise “free premium” versions or the like.

Before downloading, read the comments and ratings. Other people may have valuable tips or alerts about the app. Keeping the app updated means having the latest security improvements. So, whenever an update appears, don't leave it for later!

Having fun is 10/10, but doing it safe way it's even better. With these tips, you can enjoy the game and stay calm, without worry. Did you have fun?
