Facetune is a mobile photo and video editor built for the way people actually post today: fast creation, short attention spans, and content that needs to look polished on the first try. The app is best known for portrait and selfie editing—touch-ups, lighting fixes, background tools, and “one-tap” enhancements that help creators get from raw camera roll to ready-to-share.
Facetune also sits inside a larger ecosystem. It’s developed by Lightricks, the company behind multiple creator apps—and in 2026, Reuters reported Lightricks is separating its consumer app business from its generative AI video platform LTX as investor interest shifts toward higher-growth AI products.

What People Use Facetune For

- Creator workflows: tools designed to help posts look consistent across a feed.
A Note on Responsible Editing
Facetune is powerful, and that’s the point—but it can also change how people feel about what “normal” looks like. Many creators use it for lighting and polish, while others use it for heavier reshaping. As with any editing app, the healthiest approach is using it intentionally (for the photo) rather than as a requirement (for the person).
