The AI Beauty 2.0 technology scans 296 facial recognition points, a 20% improvement from the first-generation technology, allowing for a more precise and accurate facial recognition capability. Now, a person’s age, gender, skin color and skin type differences are detected – including for up to four individual subjects – in much greater detail. Everyone has his or her own beauty and thanks to AI learning, now anyone can haveselfies exactly the way he or she likes. AI learning identifies your beautification preferences, based on the most common edits made to photo album images, and automatically creates similar adjustments to new photos.

New features are also built into the F7 making it much more attractive and fun. Vivid Mode gives the user the opportunity to play with more color saturation of a selfie, enhancing the color of clothes and backgrounds, for example.
