JAKARTA After launching a specially developed camera last March, Google Messages now provides facial filters. This new feature will appear when the user opens the camera within the app. Reporting from 9to5google, the face filter will appear in the form of a button next to the shutter button or the core button. When the user clicks on the face filter button, various filter options will appear, including the option to remove the filter. Currently, Google Messages only offers nine face filters inside the camera, including an added filter to the glasses hat, an added hat, removes wrinkles under the eyes, converts the user into a dinosaur or rabbit, and more. Like face filters in general, this feature can be used on the front camera or rear camera. If users want to see other people in the filter they like, they only need to point the camera at that person.

This facial filter works when the user takes photos or videos. If they don't like the photos or recordings, they just need to click the repeat button on the right of the core button, then take the photo or video back. It looks like, after the user takes a photo or video using a face filter, they will see the send button to another user in the chat room. It is not yet known whether the photos and videos taken will be saved automatically in the gallery. For now, the new face filter is launched to a small fraction of Google Messages users and will be gradually expanded. In the future, Google may add a new face filter.
