Be on camera without showing your face. v1.2 adds a guided first-time tutorial, 3 free expressions per character, plus pro reorder & disable.
PNGTubeAR is the easiest way for content creators to be on camera without showing their face. Using your iPhone's front-facing camera, the app tracks your expressions and voice to animate a custom PNG character — no full VTuber rig, no webcam framing, just your character reacting in real time.
FEATURES
• Real-time face tracking — your avatar reacts to your expressions instantly
• Talking detection — the avatar switches between silent and talking images based on your voice
• Multiple characters — create, duplicate, and switch between different avatar setups
• Custom expressions — capture facial poses, reorder for matching priority, and disable individual ones for testing
• Adjustable mask — scale, position, rotate, and round the corners of your avatar overlay
• Privacy mode — instantly hides the camera feed when face tracking is lost
• Multiple aspect ratios — 1:1, 4:3, and 16:9 with smooth animated transitions
• Digital zoom — 1x and 1.5x for tighter framing
• Mirror toggle — see yourself as a mirror or as others see you
• Clean recording — double-tap to hide all UI, then use iOS Screen Recording for video output
GUIDED SETUP
A built-in first-run tutorial walks new users through creating their first custom character. Pick a silent image, capture your first reaction, and you're live.
BUILT FOR PRIVACY
Everything runs entirely on your device. No cloud, no accounts, no tracking. Your face data and images never leave your phone.
HOW TO RECORD
PNGTubeAR is designed to work with iOS Screen Recording. Double-tap the preview to hide the interface, start recording from Control Center, and capture clean avatar-only video. Enable the microphone in Control Center to include your voice.
OPTIONAL PRO UPGRADE
PNGTubeAR Pro is a one-time purchase that unlocks unlimited characters, unlimited custom expressions, and removes the preview watermark. The free tier remains fully featured with one custom character and three custom expressions.
PERFECT FOR
• Faceless content creators who want presence without showing their face
• PNGTubers and VTubers
• Streamers who want a reactive avatar without a full VTuber setup
• Podcasters who want a visual presence without a webcam
• Introverts who'd rather express through a character
• Anyone who wants to add personality to video calls or recordings
PNGTubeAR uses ARKit face tracking, which requires a device with an A12 chip or later (iPhone XS and newer, iPad Air 3rd gen and newer, iPad Pro).
