About Mug Life - 3D Face Animator
"Simple Photos Turned Into Super-Realistic 3D Animations Rock the Web" - Sputnik News
"I have to say that Mug Life is probably the most stupid and funny application in history." - KOCPC
"Being able to create 3D animated characters out of static images is much more amusing than it has any right to be." - Mobile Syrup - App of the Week
"What makes Mug Life special is that despite being obscenely juvenile, it’s really powerful." - The Next Web
Instantly create stunning photo-real clones of friends, family, and celebrities.
You don't have to be technical or artistic. All it takes is a photo.
Download community animations and paste them to your photos, or just have fun playing with faces. (It's addicting.)
Then, when inspiration strikes, create original animations and memes.
Export and share your creations as high definition videos, stills, animated GIFs, and animated Facebook avatars.
You can download all content for free, import your own images, Mug any image, and export and share an unlimited number of Mugs, entirely ad free.
If you like Mug Life, you’ll love our Pro Tools. Pro Tools adds power tools (Creative Mode) for creating and editing Mugs. In addition, iPhone X users also get the (new!) Performance Mode, unleashing the expressive power of your TrueDepth camera for live performances. It’s like Animoji from any photo!

Empower your creativity and sense of humor with Mug Life.
We can't wait to see what you come up with!
With Mug Life you can...
• Take a photo using your camera. High quality photos of faces with neutral expressions work the best.
• Import any photo from your Camera Roll, or use photos from with Facebook for albums, Instagram pictures, Twitter images, etc. If it’s got a face, you can animate it!
• Search for fun images to animate, including paintings, pictures, sketches, tattoos, dolls, action figures, drawings, photographs, renders, or illustrations. But that’s just the beginning! Any photo with a recognizable face can be great! For example, statue & sculpture photographs are particularly fun, as are photo frames taken from video & film, animals, costumes, make-up like body paint & more. You can make animated GIFs and videos from anything as long as it has a face.
• Manipulate faces in your photo. This is where the MAGIC really starts!
• Apply ANY community-made Mug animations you like for free. Like a meme you find? Use it, but put it on YOUR photos.
• Not just one face at a time! Got a close-up of a group of friends? Yup, it works! But it’s hard to fit a whole baseball team in one photo, so focus on great faces!
• Instantly share your Mugs on Facebook, Instagram, and other social media. It’s fantastic for making memes on the fly. GIFs, video, and JPG formats are supported.
• Troll your friends with crazy Mugs putting their face in the spotlight!
• Send texts messages with GIFs or post videos with the fun!
• Animate your own Mugs from scratch with Creative Mode! All you need is a photo with a face!
• Create live performances with 16 great voice filters and do live motion capture in Performance Mode. It’s like Animoji from any photo! Make group photos sing in chorus! Performance Mode requires an iPhone X, but Mug Life still works great on any iPhone or iPad.

Use to work
This app claimed that I didn’t have an account, so I decided to purchase it again, even though I knew I was paying for a subscription for yearly. I bought it again at $30 and I still didn’t have access to it, so I asked Apple for a refund and I canceled my subscription. Use your live this app.

Used to be great!
App was GREAT and then ALL OF A SUDDEN… I used to use this app all the time to make art animations and I really liked the ease of it, but now for some reason, it has locked me out of the "upgrade" aspect that I need, in spite of the fact that I have paid for the FULL RIGHTS $29 I make my payment, it goes through, and I'm still locked out. I have sent messages with no response or explanation, and the app just seems to take my money and shut me out. I'm really frustrated. I've literally used this app for years, but clearly it's time to cut my losses and find another app that actually works. Not what you make it seem AT ALL.
