Questions
Will it still look like me?
The skill keeps the face as close to the photo as it can and checks eyes, brows, nose, mouth, jaw, hairline and glasses before approving the result. It is a best-effort likeness, not a biometric match.
What happens to my photo?
It is uploaded to PopNow's temporary storage and processed by PopNow and the image model. The result is kept only for the retention time you set, one hour by default, and you can delete the task's files right after saving your portrait.
Can I use it for a passport or ID photo?
No. The output is a stylized editorial portrait and must not be used as an ID photo or biometric reference.
What if the face or glasses drift?
The skill stops and suggests one targeted correction, such as restoring the glasses from the source, and asks before paying for another edit.
