One face, one account
Your face cannot be registered twice, so nobody can set up a profile pretending to be you.
Verification
A short liveness check — a photo of a photo will not pass it. You get the verified tick, and from then on nobody else can take your face.
You do this once and never again
Faciey is a face-recognition app. People add their own face and the links they publish; anyone who sees them can scan the face and reach all of it. Nobody is in it who did not put themselves there.
How it works
Why it matters
Impersonation on every other platform works because a name and a picture are all it takes. Here the face itself is the credential, so it has to be proven live.
Your face cannot be registered twice, so nobody can set up a profile pretending to be you.
The check needs a live face in front of the camera. A printed picture or a screenshot fails it.
A verified profile is the one a stranger trusts when two profiles look alike.
Then claim your photos
The thing people assume
They are two separate switches on purpose. You can be verified and still completely invisible — discoverability stays off until you turn it on yourself.
The app guides you through four poses while the camera watches for the small movements a live face makes. It takes about twenty seconds. A held-up photo or a screen does not pass, which is what stops someone verifying with a picture of you.
You can scan other faces without verifying. Verification is what lets you own your own face — hold the tick, be findable, and claim photos of yourself.
No. Verification and discoverability are separate switches. A verified account is still invisible until you turn discoverability on yourself.
No. A face that is already verified cannot be registered again, so an impersonator cannot take yours. If someone has claimed a photo of you, you can dispute it and a verified face wins.
Yes, in one tap, permanently. There is no archive and no grace period — the faceprint is removed and stops matching anything.
Verification is a minute of your time, once. Everything that protects your identity here depends on it.
