- AbrahamPaulJ ported Henry Ruhs's FaceFusion to Android as a fully offline app: no server, no account, nothing uploaded.
- It does real-time face swap on the front camera, plus photo and video files.
- Runs on Qualcomm's Hexagon NPU: a 10-second 720p clip renders in 13s (11s with Fast video); devices without Snapdragon fall back to GPU+CPU at roughly 4x slower.
- Optional face enhancer (2.5 ms per face) and lip sync that redraws the mouth to match any audio/video.
- Android 12+, 64-bit ARM, 66 MB APK, 420 MB models, free with no ads. Licensed OpenRAIL-AS with use restrictions; the author warns against swapping real people without consent.
