This app uses your phones camera to measure the positions of your facial features and calculate their balance, converting it into anime-like "power levels" that tells you how proportionate your face is.
It offers a great way for couples and strangers alike to have fun taking each others photos, chatting about how pretty they are, and getting closer in the process.
Power levels range from 1, the "Sea Turtle Level," from 5300000, and even higher. An ordinary face would be at the "Farmer Level", so if you get anything higher, consider yourself lucky!
The measuring and the grading system is built on the theory by a psychometrician Francis Galton which states that a face is more attractive if it is closer to the average. For this app, the "average" was determined by sampling more than 100 faces of models, celebrities, etc.
Instruction: slide the right-hand switch to turn on facial recognition mode, aim at face and tap "scout". Enjoy your journey to find the prettiest face in the universe!
