Microsoft wants iPhone users to take better selfies

Love taking selfies with your iPhone? You might want to try this latest app from Microsoft. Yup, the company that brought you productivity apps such as Microsoft Office, OneDrive and OneNote is doing selfies and it’s called simply as the Microsoft Selfie.

With more selfies taken each day, Apple is still reluctant of putting any form of selfie beautification features into its camera ap. Most smartphone these days, especially from China are equipped with selfie enhancing features that automatically smoothes your skin with some fine touches to your eyes. This trend has also caught on with mainstream brands including Samsung, Lenovo and even Sony.

The Microsoft Selfie app is pretty straightforward. Just snap a picture or take an existing one, and it will automatically apply the necessary effects to make you look better. The selfie enhancement takes into consideration your age, gender, skin tone and lighting which is close to Xiaomi’s camera app. If you remembered, Microsoft had experimented with this Machine Learning feature on its How old do I look website.

If the selfie pic isn’t good enough, you can still tweak the levels and select additional filters like you do on Instagram. You can tap on the compare button to compare the before and after effects. The app is currently only available for iOS users. This isn’t the first time Microsoft had made a selfie app as they had developed a Lumia version for Windows Phone.

For the extreme narcissists, there are more advanced beautification apps like MeituPic that lets you touch up skin imperfections, enlarge eyes or make your face slimmer. How do you take selfies? Do you leave everything at auto or do you spend time making fine changes before posting them online? Let us know in the comments below.
