Apple Silicon Mac (M1 or later)
Download VidMage, upload your media, and get a clean face swap in under a minute. No coding or setup required.
Download the VidMage Mac app and install it in seconds. It runs natively on Apple Silicon chips (M1, M2, M3), so there is no emulation layer and no compatibility issues to worry about.
Drag and drop your file into VidMage, then add the face you want to swap in. The AI detects faces automatically. You don't need to mark or outline anything manually.
Click the swap button and let VidMage process the file locally on your Mac. Photos finish in about 10 seconds. Short videos take around 1 minute. Save your result in full resolution with no watermark.
From native Apple Silicon performance to fully offline processing, here's what makes VidMage stand out for Mac users.
VidMage runs directly on M1, M2, and M3 chips without Rosetta emulation. That means faster processing, higher quality output, and better battery life on any recent MacBook or Mac desktop.
Every face swap runs on your Mac with no internet connection needed. Your photos and videos never leave your device, never go to a server, and are never used for AI training. What you process stays yours.
Upload a face, click swap, and the AI handles blending, skin tone matching, and expression alignment automatically. No technical skill or manual editing needed to get a seamless, photorealistic result.
Process larger photos and longer videos than any web tool allows. Batch-process multiple files at once. Swap up to four faces in a single frame. No upload limits, no server-side compression, no quality loss.
From quick photo edits to high-resolution exports and studio-scale batch work, VidMage covers every face swap use case on Mac.
Swap faces in any video file on your Mac and get a result up to 4K resolution. VidMage maintains quality through expression changes, angle shifts, and lighting variation. Well suited for short-form creators producing TikTok, YouTube Shorts, or Reels content, as well as anyone who needs clean face-swapped footage for client projects or marketing material. Processing runs locally, so there is no upload time and no file size limit tied to a server.
Process dozens of photos or videos at once in batch mode. Upload multiple files and one target face, and VidMage handles them all in one pass. Particularly useful for e-commerce teams, event photographers, and content studios that need to replace faces across a large set of images. A job that might take hours of manual editing is done in minutes, all processed locally on your Mac.
When a photo or video includes more than one person, VidMage can swap each face separately. You assign a different target face to each person in the frame, and the AI processes them all at once, up to four simultaneous swaps. Works well for group shots, team photos, family pictures, and multi-character video scenes. Everything runs locally on your Mac.
Create face-swap GIFs directly on your Mac. VidMage accepts animated GIF input and exports a swapped GIF ready for sharing on social media, messaging apps, or group chats. A quick way to make meme content, funny reaction GIFs, or personalized animated greetings. The output is clean and ready to post, with no extra editing needed. Processing happens offline, so your source files stay private.
Every face swap in VidMage runs on your Mac without an internet connection. Unlike web tools that cap uploads at 50 to 100 MB and compress output, VidMage places no limit on file size and exports at full original quality. Nothing is uploaded to a cloud server. Valuable for professionals handling sensitive client media, journalists protecting sources, or anyone who does not want their files leaving their device.
VidMage supports live face swap during video calls and streams. You can appear as a different face in Zoom, Google Meet, FaceTime, or OBS, with low latency and a stable output. Note: this feature requires VidMage Camera, a separate Mac app available on the VidMage website. Once installed, select VidMage Camera as your camera source in your video app's settings. Requires M1 or later.
