Memes and trends
Drop a character into a trending clip and post it while the format is still live. Short clips cost the fewest credits.

ActLike AI is an AI face swap video generator for iPhone. It turns a clip of one person, up to 20 seconds long, and a single photo or written description into a realistic character video at 480p or 720p HD. It keeps the original motion and expressions, can match the scene lighting, and sells one-time credit packs from $1.99 with no subscription.

Everything happens inside the app, in three steps. There is no timeline, no masking and nothing to learn.
Inside an AI face swap video generator, the work breaks down into a few stages. Knowing them makes it obvious why some inputs work better than others.
First, the model tracks the person in your clip frame by frame: where the head turns, when they blink, how their expression changes. That motion is what your character inherits.
Next, it reads your photo, or your written description, and rebuilds that character onto the tracked motion, rather than pasting a still image on top of the video.
With Scene Match switched on, the app fits the character to the lighting and mood of the original clip. This is the step that makes a result read as footage instead of a filter, and it costs 1 credit per video.
Finally, the video is exported at 480p or 720p HD. Every creation stays in your History, and you can save it to Photos or share it straight to other apps.
ActLike AI is built for short, original, creative video. These are the most common reasons people open it.
Drop a character into a trending clip and post it while the format is still live. Short clips cost the fewest credits.
Put a friend, with their permission, into a famous-style scene for a message they will actually remember.
Re-imagine a scene with an original character you describe in words, keeping the motion of the source clip.
Build short scenes around characters you invent, without filming anyone new or learning an editor.
Reuse one clip for several people who have agreed to take part, and give everyone their own version.
Try the same clip with different characters at 480p, then remake the one that works at 720p HD.

Traditional face replacement means rotoscoping, masks and long exports. Here is how the two approaches compare.
| What matters | Desktop VFX software | ActLike AI |
|---|---|---|
| Time per clip | Hours of manual work | A few minutes |
| Hardware | A workstation with a strong GPU | Any iPhone on iOS 17.0+ |
| Learning curve | Weeks of tutorials | Three guided steps |
| Cost model | Monthly licences | One-time credit packs |
| Trying variations | Re-render the whole project | Swap the character and generate again |
| Frame-level control | Full manual control | Automatic only |
Desktop software still wins when you need frame-by-frame control or multi-person shots. The alternatives comparison covers where each kind of tool fits.
An AI face swap video generator does the heavy lifting, but your inputs still decide the outcome.
Pricing is per second of video, paid with one-time credit packs bought inside the app.
Credit Saver 480p uses 1 credit per second and Best Quality 720p uses 2. Scene Match adds 1 credit. A typical 10-second video at 480p therefore uses about 10 credits, and the same video at 720p with Scene Match uses 21.
Packs range from 5 credits for $1.99 to 500 credits for $49.99, and nothing renews. If a generation fails, its credits return to your balance automatically. Every pack is listed on the pricing page.
Any AI face swap video generator needs clear rules, so here they are in plain language.
Only use videos and photos you own or have permission to use, and never use the app to deceive, impersonate or harass anyone. Several platforms and regions also require you to label synthetic media featuring a real person, so use the AI label wherever it is offered.
Read the full rules in the acceptable use policy, and see how your data is handled in the privacy policy.
Short answers to what people ask first.
An AI face swap video generator replaces the person in a video clip with a different character taken from a photo or a description. ActLike AI does this on iPhone: it keeps the head turns, gestures and expressions from the original clip and fits the new character to the scene lighting.
