iPhones have become very good at reading our faces. Most of us use it for unlocking our phones or sending animoji. But it turns out Face ID technology is also a great tool for creating animated movies.

CrazyTalk Animator Pro is an app for creating rich 2D animations. One of the coolest features is the ability to use iPhone’s facial recognition features and apply them to characters in your film via the LIVE FACE app, so syncing voice to image is easy and effective.

Additionally, the app packs tons of tools for taking any image – a character, logo or prop – and giving it life with a huge range of motion templates. There are motion libraries for easy animating, a 2D bone rig editor for custom movements, audio lip-syncing tools, and lots more.

If you’re looking to make content for the web, for teaching, for games or for anything else, this app can produce some original results.
