In the backdrop of the COVID-19 outbreak, video-conferencing led by Zoom has become the go-to tool for not only staying connected with friends and loved ones, but also collaborating with colleagues. The Zoom app boasts a range of highly user-friendly features that have put it slightly ahead of the curve against top rivals like Microsoft Teams and Hangouts Meet. Among its plethora of features, what has caught my eyes is the “Touch up my appearance” tool which retouches your video with a soft focus. In other words, it helps smooth out the skin on your face so you look nice during video-conferencing. If you find it cool, let me show you how you can use Touch up my appearance to look better in Zoom on your iPhone/iPad, Mac, and Windows PC.
Times when you feel a bit tired but don’t want it to show up on your face during video calling or just want to smoothen the face to appear fresh, Zoom’s visual filter can have a role to play. Thanks to the ability to enhance visual appearance in real-time, it looks in line with Snapchat or Instagram filters. This is an excellent tip for Zoom users who want to look good during online meetings.
On your iPhone or iPad, launch the Zoom app and then tap on the Settings icon at the bottom right corner.
Now, tap on Meetings.
The steps are the same for both macOS and Windows apps. That’s why we’ve shown only macOS screenshots.
