Chances are you have used FaceApp at some point (or at least know about it). This app is a fun little timewaster that takes one of your selfies and shows you how you would look in various scenarios — in 30 years’ time, for example, or with a beard or longer hair.

What is amazing is how well it does this. The results are quite incredible, an often indistinguishable from an actual photograph. If you have ever wanted to satisfy that kind of curiosity and be blown away with the results, give it a try.

Gemini Photos

Platform: iOS, Mac

Price: Free (offers in-app purchases)

Taking a bunch of selfies and editing them in FaceApp is fun, but it generates a lot of extra files on your device. In fact, there is a good chance your device is already stuffed to the brim with screenshots, blurry photos, duplicates, and all sorts of other cruft.

Gemini Photos is here to help. It scans your device and sorts your photos into categories ready for deletion. You can remove just the blurry photos, or just the duplicates — the choice is yours. It can even suggest which photo is the best from a bunch of similar shots. And don’t worry, you can review everything before deletion, meaning you never lose anything important.

Luminar AI

Love taking photos but hate editing them afterwards? Try Luminar AI. This app builds on the popular Luminar photo editor by throwing superintelligent artificial intelligence into the mix. It does the hard work for you, tweaking and editing your snaps to perfection at the press of a button.

Each photo loaded into the app is analyzed for key areas. Once this is complete, you get a range of templates to instantly apply for quick touchups and changes. You can leave it there or go deeper with a range of controls to truly bring your photos to life.

Oval

Managing your money can be complicated, but it does not have to be if you use Oval. This app uses A.I. to recognize areas where you can save money, such as rounding up the price of your regular coffee and saving the extra cash.

It also learns from your habits to help your finances in other ways. If you have lots of big payments once a year, it will suggest you save less at this time to lessen your financial burdens. You can see your progress toward your savings targets and set smart goals so you are always in control. It is a handy app that helps take the strain out of being financially savvy.
