he initial release date of popular messaging app Snapchat is July 2011, since then it has gained much popularity worldwide. If not everyone then most of the people use Snapchat in their daily life. Its eye-catching features and filters are amazing. It’s been introducing new features, filters, in the app such as Multi snap, Portrait mode, refreshed UI, new filters, and many more. Through these features Snapchat is successful in grabbing a lot of user.
This time also, Snapchat aims to lure users by introducing new feature called “Time Machine”. This feature lets you look older/younger in real-time. Isn’t it interesting feature guys? Let’s try to understand more about this feature in detail below.
Snapchat launches latest lens feature called ‘Time Machine’.
Recently, Snapchat launches a new feature known as ‘Time Machine’ for its users. This feature basically shows you how powerful machine learning or artificial intelligence can be. The feature allows its users to change the appearance of their age simply by dragging a slider across the device’s screen. Time machine AI-powered lens uses advanced training models and robust neural network technology, which transforms not only your face, but also hair instinctively. Sounds interesting! Isn’t it?
Company spokesperson said in a statement, “Time Machine lens lets you change the appearance of your age by dragging a simple slider across your screen, going from young to old in less than a second. Using advanced machine learning and training models, you can see the years melt away (or pile up!) in real-time, then share with your closest friends with just a tap,”
Guys, if you remember then the new Time Machine feature is similar to what Facebook introduced earlier this year that let users have fun with aging filters. However, this feature is different from Facebook as uses machine learning and works with both front as well as back cameras. If you slide left, it will show you younger and if you slide right, it will show you ageing older in real-time also with hilarious results.
List of devices who support this feature
Although the Time Machine feature is available for both Android as well as iPhone users, it is available for all iOS models after the iPhone6. However, for Android phone there are some specific models on which this feature will work. Let’s see the given list below:
