xpression camera is a real-time generative AI virtual camera app that lets you instantly transform into any image with a single photo and reflect your facial expressions in real time during video chats and live streams. It enables you to redefine your onscreen persona across platforms like Zoom, Twitch, YouTube, and more, using images from the web, your camera roll, or social media. The app supports a wide range of personas—from humanoid and CG characters to cinematic anime, 90s hip hop styles, and beyond—and allows extensive customization of backgrounds, hairstyles, makeup, clothing, and accessories. A unique Voice2Face feature lets you animate your image off-camera using your voice, and a suite of one-click animations adds expressive flair to your presence. The platform emphasizes privacy by changing the image shown on screen, ensuring the user’s true identity is not exposed on the camera feed.
